Lord of the Dragon Riders

De: Turner Tellborn, Marcus Sloss

Narrado por: Adam Stubbs, Mia Fothergill

A strange cry for help distracts Daniel from his boring study session. Curiosity gets the better of him, and he is thrust through a portal where he emerges into a fantasy world of myth, magic, dragons and war.

His arrival grants him a special opportunity. After stumbling upon a dying dragon, he discovers an egg that is about to hatch. Daniel knows a grand adventure awaits him, and he seizes the moment to become a dragon rider.

Fame, fortune, lust, and glory await Daniel. But they come at a steep cost. Dark forces are gathering, and they want Daniel dead.

But Daniel is not alone. The Wild Dragon Rider will be joined by his Firebound—an assortment of lovely female dragon riders who can help Daniel turn the tide of the war. Assuming he survives long enough to make a difference!

More from Marcus

This is a wild ride from start to finish. It starts a little slow but winds up becoming a book you can't put down. This story is badass and I'm hoping for more continuations of this series.

What an awesome new series

Definitely a worth while read, dragons are always a good start in a story but this one seem like it has all the elements of an epic fantasy aswell, political intrigue, an evil nation of dark elves and epic magic.

Frustrating MC and chaotic pacing

Some good story elements and decent world building overshadowed by a few big problems.

First, the supposedly college-age main character acting like an overwrought 12 year old. Zero critical thinking, zero self control, utterly naive, falls into an unresponsive, drooling stupor when he sees a female of any variety... He's like the world's most embarrassing caricature of an anime protagonist. The male narrator plays hard into it and makes it almost painful to listen to at various points.

Second, the pacing is insanity. This book probably should have been two books with some more fleshing out and reordering. It's like a rollercoaster that consists entirely of a single near-vertical drop, and entire scenes are inexplicably skipped over rather than used for any kind of character or story development.

For the rest... The codex is neat, but could do with some more focus. The magic system is extremely hand-wavy and vague but mostly works in spite of that. The sex is, frankly, boring and one-note. The supporting cast and world are interesting where the MC is not. I'm starved for new books and there's enough to like here that I finished it out and moved on to the second book anyway. I'm hoping for some improvement there.

Arguably worth buying but be prepared for a rough ride.

Great start!

This story showed up in my recommended and I was not disappointed! The story is top tier. The characters are unique. The voice acting is on point. And the plot setup has me wanting more! Can’t wait for the next one!

Good story, good narration

The story started a little slow, but it quickly blossomed into a nice adventure story. There was a good amount of progression in an easy way to understand, especially listening to it in an audio format. The narrators did a nice job and they conveyed real emotion to the characters. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

5 stars

👏👏👏👏👏I hope there are more books to come in this series! The MC is great along with a really good supporting cast! The story is captivating! The narrators also do a good job of bringing the story to life! Great job Turner Tellborn and Marcus Sloss!

Delightful Dragoon Story

This book was absolutely awesome and just the type of story I was looking for. Well done. Can't wait to hear about the next adventure. I'm glad to have chosen this series and am looking forward to more dragon stories.

Fair to poor story. MC is a moron.

Like a five year old trusting everyone and acting like he has zero experience with other humans because he is in a new world. Some wonder and mistakes can be forgiven but this story constantly has me asking why I spent a credit. 3 hrs in.

Better than I expected.

Earth college guy gets transported to another world from his college library by a book he was reading and becomes a dragon rider of legend. Entering his new world into chaos.
But he's got his new dragon buddy with him and they add a few beautiful women to their little circle, among others.
Awesome story
I'm giving this book 8 out of 5 stars.

A lot of potential but fell unfortunately flat, MC really disappoints.

The story could have been so good, I really tried to like it but the MC was just so weak, whiny, and literally never progressed or got any better. It was very frustrating listening to the how pathetic the MC thought and acted it never got any better know matter how far he supposedly progressed, he never changed or showed any growth and it was really disappointing due to the potential the story had.
