About this listen

The first book in the Dragons of Terra series, Blood of an Exile features a life-changing mission for a death-defying adventurer . . . Welcome to Brian Naslund's spectacular, action-packed fantasy debut.

Sentenced to die. Impossible to kill.

Bershad was supposed to die. When he was caught attempting to assassinate a fellow noble, he was given the harshest sentence: a command to slay dragons, so his death might serve the kingdom. Yet for some reason he never lost a fight and is now the most successful dragon-slayer in history. However, as a doomed man Bershad is still shunned by his peers and his countrymen. But that could all change.

The king who sentenced Bershad has just given him a way out: kill a foreign monarch and walk free forever. His problem is that Bershad couldn’t care less about the fates of kingdoms – until the dragon-slayer discovers he could save an innocent child in the process.

His mission might also save every creature in Terra.

Critic reviews

Naslund succeeds in creating a page-turning, edge-of-your-seat read that breathes new (fiery) life into dragon mythology. Top-notch adventure fantasy – a stand-up-and-applaud debut (Kirkus Reviews)
Naslund’s debut wraps action, a mystery, and the environment into an impressively tight knot of classic fantasy (Publishers Weekly)
Blood of an Exile promises to be a well-done epic fantasy, complete with heroic battles, death-defying acts, and the continuation of a misunderstood hero’s story (Reviews & Robots)

A very well written and original story. It's a shame the dragons and dragon slaying takes a bit of a back seat for the latter half but I did enjoy it.

Great start, gripping middle, but a little rushed ending. However, enjoyed and would listen again.

Very easy listen!

well narrated, relatively one dimensional and predictable, but fun none the less. Takes the gratuitous violence and sex from ASOIAF but leaves the character development

enjoyable, woke fantasy fan fiction
