Fantasy romance

Ok I admit, I thought this was book 1! Ooops. I started listening and it went so well too, but after a while I asked myself that it seems that there was a lot of backstory. I mean the story flowed and all, and I could just jump in like that and I did not feel lost. But I wondered , and yes realised that this is book 3.

So no, I do not know all of Avera´s journey. I only know she was on a dragon island, got kidnapped and is brought to an emperor. And that she sometimes thought of someone named Griffon. At least it seems that that romance was really slowburn and something happens first in this one.

So yes my mistake paid off. It worked! Thank you Langlais. Well done. But also, this is a series, so much happened before. You really must listen in order.

Because there is an ancient evil. There are dragons waking. There is an Emperor who is good? Bad? There is a princess whose country was stolen, and her pirate king.

I enjoyed it. I was sort of just swept away.

Really good narrating. She kept me on track which was needed considering. 

When Avera is captured by the Emperor of Merisu, her quest to reclaim her throne and prevent an evil entity from escaping its magical prison fails.

Or so she thinks.

Emperor Titus claims he wants to be Avera's ally, but can she trust him? The rumors of his depravity and tyranny appear to be false. The man she meets is courteous, handsome, and seemingly beloved by his people. Would marrying him be so bad?

Along with his offer to make her his consort, he's been teasing her with dragon lore. He believes hatching the eggs she retrieved is their best option. Avera isn't convinced, though. She's seen the catastrophic damage caused by a single dragon in Verlora. Freeing four more dragons could lead to wide-scale catastrophe. At the same time, the mighty beasts might be the only hope they have to preserve their way of life—if they can convince them to help.

Time is running out, and as secrets become exposed, hard decisions must be made. Will Avera make the ultimate sacrifice to save the world?
