About this listen

- From Kindle Storyteller Award Winner G J Ogden -

A dragon’s heart has the power to forge kingdoms - or shatter them.

Sir Torin Cadwell, Knight-Captain of the Watch and the tyrant king’s illegitimate son, has spent his life torn between loyalty to his father and the pull of destiny. For generations, his bloodline has been cursed by a bitter feud with Kyhrax, the Flame of Zarag-Gul - the most feared dragon in Westskyr.

The city of Dun Morlaig survives only because of the Breath - a magical barrier fueled by the crystallized heart of Astreya, the Great Mother dragon. Once a benevolent guardian, Astreya was slain by Torin’s ancestor, leaving Kyhrax consumed by grief and burning for revenge.

When Astreya’s Lament - the sword that holds the Great Mother’s heart - is stolen, the Breath falters. Chaos erupts as Koblyn monsters and dragon-worshiping cultists lay siege to the city, and Kyhrax prepares to unleash his long-awaited vengeance.

Defying the king’s command, Torin allies with Ruxandra Elyr, a ranger of the Order of the Green Bow, to recover the stolen sword. But Kyhrax’s wrath will not stop at Dun Morlaig. If the Flame of Zarag-Gul is not stopped, his fury will consume all seven realms and usher in the age of dragons.

Sword of the Fallen is the gripping first book in the Hearts of Dragons epic fantasy trilogy by Kindle Storyteller Award Winner G J Ogden. Dive into this thrilling adventure today!

So many words wasted on irrelevant and pedestrian descriptions of things (and characters) not worth describing. The MC's storyline is an event- and idea-less bore for way too long, exposition is delivered at once excessively and lazily, and the narrator's habit of adding a pause in the middle of a sentence, in every other sentence, makes the book an even greater chore to get through. The dragon cult storyline initially kept me listening despite all of the above, but soon, the
lead cultist character's finesse-less, repetitive, and overall more annoying than intriguing depiction killed the last glimmer of interest.

A raaambling bore
