This is where it all began
This book has inspired thousands of fantasy tales, it is regarded as one of the most important fantasy works of all time. An exciting tale of hobbits, dragons and probably the best wizard of all time, Gandalf. You should seriously read this, along with the Lord of the Rings.

This is an Audible original, which I'd heard - pre-listening - as probably best described as "World War Z, but with Dragons"

Which did prove to be pretty much spot on.

Like World War Z, this takes the form of epistolary storytelling: all presented as if audio recordings of interviews (and personal journals) of journalist Neve Pride, as she witnesses the 'eruption' of Dragons from the earth, and the devastation that follows.

As epistolary storytelling, I found certain sections to be slower than others - I also find that, as it is presented as interviews post events, I also miss the immediacy of the action. That, I find, is a drawback of this type of storytelling device.

Still, at least I can now say I'd listened to it ...

A world I want to live in
It took me 3 attempts to get in to this series but once I was past page 17 I was hooked.
Who doesn't want to get lost in a world of dragons and deceit, honour and family?
I can't wait to see how it ends... come on George, send us a raven!

Extremely Cute
This is the story of a young girl who is learning the dieing art of taking care of tea dragons. This book is adorable. I for one would definitely keep a tea dragon for a pet. I also enjoyed the art style. It has a really clean look to it, and it matches the story.

Tsuro
2004 | Abstract Strategy, Fantasy
Quick and easy (0 more)
It's usually just outlasting your opponents rather than directly eliminating them (0 more)
Play tiles to keep your dragon in play by not crashing into other dragons or flying off the board.

It's good as a quick game while waiting for people to show up. You probably wouldnxt want to play it multiple times in a row.

So my competition prize arrived and it’s great. My first one ever and now the addiction starts. Didn’t see the point in them at first then when you have one it’s completely different. You want another and another, then you start messaging the company asking them why they haven’t released a Dungeons and Dragons collection with Venger
