Jake's Dragon-7

Crucible

De: Riano D. McFarland

Narrado por: AC Oliver

For millennia, dragons and humans have shared the Earth. For most of that time, it has been a peaceful coexistence, primarily because contemporary human civilizations considered dragons to be nothing more than fairytales created from the fanciful imaginings of cave-dwelling hunter-gatherers. In truth, they have always been an integral part of a healthy planetary biosphere, and without them, Earth's environmental balance would have collapsed long ago.

Since the age of eleven, Jacob Payne has been leading the charge in integrating the knowledge of ancient dragons into the innovative technologies that play a key role in the survival and proliferation of the human race. Although their contributions to sustained ecological balance can be found around the globe, the presence of dragons themselves, had been intentionally concealed behind a voluntary veil of separation that effectively prevented the co-mingling of Earth's two dominant species.

When that veil was removed by the President of the United States, following the heroic actions of dragons in repelling an extraterrestrial invasion by the Drokarians, and preventing the planetary takeover by an ancient Deep-Earth species known as borlamites, many people embraced their new-found neighbors. Others did not.

In the wake of a tragedy involving a Royal Norwegian Navy frigate, in which nearly one hundred seamen lost their lives, the blame was laid at the feet of a dragon, and suddenly unwarranted fear crept into the psyches of many who had previously embraced and revered them. Despite the tireless advocacy of Jacob and Danielle Payne, the entirety of the dragon species faces a crucible in which the very civilization they have rescued from the brink of extinction, now seems to be turning against them.

Oh, To Be Jake Payne!

I've read all of the Jake's Dragon books, and AC Oliver brings the story to life in grand form. His voicing for the different characters and dragons is remarkable. Of course, McFarland's ability to create a world in which dragons still live and make it believable is absolutely stunning. There's no profanity or excessive violence, but this story, like all the others in the series, is absolutely compelling! I hope there will be another JD book in the future.

Farewell is such sweet sorrow. This is the end of the series.

Jake Dragon 7 maybe the finale of the series, but the characters will live on. We went on a marry adventure with Riano D. McFarland and A.C. Olive, they both made the story reality for us in the way you can only imagine. The conclusion will made everyone happy in that every character fought their soulmate and did what they could to be remembered. TheSaying “knowledge is power” is not always a good thing. Humanity and dragons safe the worlds from the evil forces, just for humanity to turn around and accuse the dragons of doing something wrong. I did get the book for free for a honest review.

A Fantastic Final Chapter in Jake’s Journey

What a beautiful and satisfying conclusion to the series! Every character got the happy ending they deserved, making it an absolute joy to experience. This series is a must-read if you’re looking for a story that tugs at your heartstrings and leaves you feeling warm inside. You won’t be disappointed!

Goodness Prevails!

Riano D. McFarland does it again. Along with great narrating by AC Oliver, Mr. McFarland writes a wholesome, happy tale about the Paynes, King T’Aer Bolun Dakkar, and all the other dragons and their bonded riders. It's a simple, well-written story appropriate for all ages. He has created a utopia that is refreshing to believe in and be swept into amidst all the backbiting and turmoil in the world today.

I received this book for free in return for an hones review.

Amazing series!

This is a lovely conclusion to an exceptional series. I like that McFarland found a soul mate for each of the main characters throughout the series. While I know the Pain family stories could go on for ever, I was happy with the way this book wraps up the series.

The narrator is flawless as usual and am amazed by his smooth pronunciation of the dragon names.

Once again Another Chapter in thier Story

I find so many simular references to life and world events in this Series to the World nowadays. I just wish we had champions to help correct all the terrible things human kind has done to this planet in the name of greed and power. Narrator does a Great job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

Final

This was the final story in the dragon science fiction fantasy series. The gist of the story was easy to follow, if a bit simplistic and unrealistic, and it was appropriate for an adult audience in content. It had a lot of foul language and violence, as well as allusions to inappropriate behavior. I would not recommend it for a younger audience.
