The characters were ok but I wasn't that invested in them but regardless with the way things ended I will have to get the next book in the series. In short it was an ok listen but nothing that blew me away. I just felt that alot of them book was predictable and early on I figured out how things would play out. Overall this was an ok audio listen but it wasn't due to the narration because that was spot on. The book was pretty fast paced and I listened to it fairly quickly and was surprised at how fast I finished it.

I found myself torn between the boys too and the narrator made them both so different and unique. I could quickly see the author was going to go the love triangle route but in this case it made sense and I was ok with it. I liked Riley from the start and liked that he encouraged Ember to be who and what she was but Garrett made her a better person also. Ember even makes friends along the way some of them being Riley and Garret.

Ember and Dante soon adjust to living life as humans but still training with Talon. I was quickly interested in learning more about Talon and what they were really about because I knew it was more that they were hiding.

They became way more human and as I continued to listen to the story I started to see just how misunderstood they really were. The narrator did a good job of bringing this story to life and making Ember and her brother Dante more than just the dragons that they were. I am a huge fan of the author's work but I have to say this one wasn't as good to me as her other works. This book was one that I was waiting on for a while so when I got a chance to listen to it for review I was so excited. Faced with Ember's bravery, confidence, and all-too-human desires, Garret begins to question everything that the order has ingrained in him - and what he might be willing to give up to find the truth about dragons.
