Dragonrider Academy: Season 1: Episodes 1-7

By: A.J. Flowers

Narrated by: Vanessa Moyen

Never trust a jock.

That was my first mistake. When Max Green invited me to a night party on the beach, I should have known better. The Resorties are rich kids who can’t see past their own cruelty. When Max and his friends trap me in the water, the only way for me to go is down.

It would have been an ironic death, given that my father drowned in the very same waters. But that’s not what happened. Instead my entire world changed when the Lady of the Lake took me to a new realm, one that had been hidden from me my entire life.

Dragonrider Academy is a secret society I’m not even supposed to know exists. It has knights with talking swords, professors who breathe fire, and a hot guy named Killian who seriously gets on my nerves.

It’s his fault I’m stuck here in the first place. He wants me to be his partner and face all the challenges Dragonrider Academy has to offer. He says we’re fated to be together, that I was the one who called him! Crazy talk.

Or is it?

Whatever secret he’s hiding, I need to get it out of him before I do something stupid...like fall for the bad boy who got me into this mess in the first place.

Enjoy the entire first season of Dragonrider Academy, in a Fated Mates series starring Vivi, a no-nonsense kind of girl who knows what she wants. Unfortunately, what she wants is Killian, and she’s not going to like the reason when she finds out why they’re fated mates!

Each episode in Dragonrider Academy is a short work of 10,000-20,000 words with the first season ready to binge! Be sure to scroll up and buy your copy today!

Super awesome

I love a book with dragons and this is one amazing story about dragons and their riders

Season one tbc

This is a really interesting series
Set up as episodes that in audio span about 40 minutes each.

Really easy to listen too and how it’s set up let’s the reader/listener can leave and come back after each episode.

I found it quite fast passed and season one spans over mainly a three year period.

Vivi starts off about 9 years old and I think by the end of season one she’s about 18.

She meets her dragon and her fated mate but this series is definitely very YA.

I enjoyed the narration I believe Vanessa is a great voice actor and does a good job.

Vivi is a dragon rider and also has goddess blood giving her great powers.

I’m looking forward to season two with Vivi in the hunt for the other dragon queens

Gifted audio in exchange for an honest review

Extraordinary Fantasy!

This was my first experience with A. J. Flowers' work, and it was an entertaining ride. I enjoyed the book and I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. The world building was awesome. The characters were complex and relatable. The plot had some twists and turns and plenty of action. The descriptions about the interactions between the dragons and the dragon-riders were diverting and the fight scenes were thrilling. I recommend this book to others who enjoy this genre. Vanessa Moyen's narration was great, and she kept my attention. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.

It was Good, not fantastic

I adore fantasy books. I truly loved how the dragons are attached or bonded to the riders and the whole idea of them being bonded by magic. I was really anticipating a huge battle in the end. *SPOILER ALERT&************************ and I was bummed when the main character died. :( I told you spoiler lol. that didn't happen. but the ending of the story was a bummer. it was cool how she dissolves the chaos, but the author built up to that part of the story and then it was just kind of blah. Anyway, I don't understand the whole episode thing. that was silly in my opinion. it would've been better as an actual book. Anyway, it was still a cool story

Not bad for a love story.

Magic and dragons, what more do you need? A love story… but there are DRAGONS. Good story and a fine job narrating makes me want to listen to season 2!

FANTASTIC STORIES & I LOVED IT.

SOME OF THE BEST DRAGON FANTASY ADVENTURE STORIES EVER. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THEM AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR SEASON 2.

ACCEPTABLE FOR TEENS

NARRATOR IS GREAT AND EASY TO FOLLOW

Entertaining YA Dragon Fantasy

This is a really interesting concept. I love when authors don't limit themselves on choice of paranormal species. here there are angels, descendents of a goddess, dragon shifters, elves, knights, and wyverns and probably more. The connection the dragonriders have with their wyverns and their mates is really quite adorable. Vivi and Killian's relationship has it's ups and downs, but they have pretty good chemistry. I wish the relationships were expounded a little bit more. A lot of the plot revolves around strong emotion but there are few moments where that emotion is allowed to really develop. That's my one complaint. Overall, it is very entertaining.

This narrator is not my favorite. She doesn't have a lot of depth to her voice and makes the MC sound a bit like an air head. I am very particular about voices, though, so this may not bother many others. I have found myself unable to finish books read by her in the past. Luckily the story line, and frankly the dragons, kept me engaged.

AMAZING 11/10 🤩🤩🤩 Would give 6 stars if it was possible

This was an amazing book it was full of adventure and fantasy and if you like dragons definitely listen to this story. It had really good descriptive words so no matter where I was in the story I capsule envision it. It was also a great storyline and it was really easy to follow and it had some really good twists and turns that always kept me on the edge of my seat! I loved how much magic was included as well it made the story even better and I absolutely love all of the characters because they fit perfectly with the storyline. Overall it was an amazing story and I absolutely loved everything about this book!

Really good

I really enjoyed this book and each episode is short but, they all had a lot of action and adventure and was so good. This is a new author to me and I thoroughly enjoyed myself listening to this audiobook and look forward to more books by this author. Loved the narration.

Action & drama-packed !

🐉🔥 Overall: 🐉🔥

An epic read set in a fun, addictive world that I love getting lost in. Episodes 1-7 could be read individually before now, but the complete boxset just came out and it includes a new, bonus prequel!
The prequel was a quick, fun read and gave some insight into Vivi’s past.


I’d already read episodes 1-5, but thought it’d be fun to binge on the whole thing and … I was right. Try it! It flows perfectly and was even better than the first time around. I breezed right through this entire nearly 10-hour set in one sitting. 4 stars. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️


Individual reviews:

🐉🔥 Episode 1:

Amazing read, couldn’t put it down. If this was to serve as in introduction to what’s to come, it’s very well done. While short, there is still plenty of great writing and world-building to appreciate and it promises lots of drama and action on the horizon.

Eagerly awaiting episode 2.

5 stars
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

🐉🔥 Episode 2:

A quick listen (with the absolute best narrator) and about an hour well spent. Thanks to this fun world, I did not see my neighborhood on my walk last night, but instead I saw Dragonrider Academy and everything Vivian and Killian got up to.

Excellent writing and world-building made for a super fun episode and a need to read on immediately.

4 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

🐉🔥 Episode 3:

Epic listen; needed it as soon as I finished episode 2 and this one left me absolutely needing episode 4. Things are heating up in this world and I am completely here for it. The world-building is on point and the writing is great! Cannot wait to see what happens next.

4 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

🐉🔥 Episode. 4:

In this installment we get more of Vivian’s background along with the usual dose of action and some drama. I’m officially going to call it: this whole series gets better with each episode. Absolutely dying to see what’s to come!

4.5 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

*I strongly recommend reading this from the beginning, in order.


Note:
I listened to the audiobook; 5-star performance. This narrator is perfect!

🐉🔥 Episode 5:

Stars out,not just where 4 left off, but as an actual repeat of ep. 4. However it was still super fun.:) After just a few minutes, we’re treated to some more drama …

We get to see the extent of certain parties’ corruption in this one and … it’s juicy. It’s also brilliantly written and exciting and packs gorgeous, vivid descriptions and epic world-building.

Still completely fast-paced and intriguing.

4 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️


🐉🔥Episode 6:

“Dragons have a funny way of altering someone’s destiny.”
Continues right where Ep. 5 left off and maintains the fast pace and exciting world-building. Things are really heating up here and they’ve got some important decisions to make.

Ends on a wicked cliffhanger in an intense moment. Definitely recommend being ready with a copy of #7 nearby or loaded onto your device when you start this one!

4 stars.
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️




🐉🔥 Episode 7:


SO much fun and brilliantly executed as things work out … or at least seem to (no spoilers) and while it doesn’t end on a cliffhanger, I absolutely want more. Dying for Season 2! Very well played.

4 stars overall.
