Ive been on a dragon rider kick and this was a fantastic listen. Tom was a wonderful narrator and Taran's world is enthralling. Im looking forward to the next book.

Unlikeable main character
I was disappointed in this one. Felt like a book of world building and small obstacles rather a story. The main character was unlikeable and just dumb, everything was just dumb.

Boring no spark
I persisted as far as I could but the narrators voice bored me. It was like a drone which then made the main character lacklustre . no excitement no thrills no suspense. Not for me.
