Defiant

Songs of Chaos, Book 3

By: Michael R. Miller

Narrated by: Peter Kenny

The great powers are stirring, and Holt and Ash are ready to return to the fight.

A summons from the Life Elder sets them on a perilous mission, leading to steaming jungles and blistering islands where ancient secrets will challenge everything they know of magic and dragons.

Talia, the Red Queen, is beset on all sides by pirate raiders and marauding mercenaries. Empress Skadi has abandoned her, battling uprisings in her own lands. As the noose tightens on Feorlen, Talia faces a difficult choice: let her people suffer or turn her powers against mortal foes?

Osric Agravain has found hope with his newly bonded black dragon, but some wounds run deeper than flesh and bone. Along the Fallow Frontier, he seeks the inner peace that has long eluded him.

And within the sanctum at Falcaer, Paragon Adaskar is struggling to unite the fracturing riders. If he fails, ruinous chaos will break across the world.

For when Elders and Paragons quarrel, kingdoms will fall.

An ever better story

This book is fantastic. I won’t say this is Micheal Miller’s Magnum Opus, because he’s got a long career ahead of him, be he’s done something pretty dang amazing with this story and the characters. Peter Kenny takes the story from fantastic to fantastical. His voice lending power and emotions to each person. Don’t miss this book.

Better and better!!!

I’ve been listening since the Dragons Blade Trilogy and I gotta say Michael R. Miller is consistently getting better and better. The dynamics he’s created in this world are truly astonishing. Normally I’m not a fan of the darker books in a series but oh man the development happening here is wonderful. I’d like to take a quote from my man Osric here; “Do the job, and do it well.” Michael has done more than that. Especially with Peter Kennys narration. I will recommend to all my fantasy nerds! Can’t wait for the next two!

The best one yet of the series.

This for me is probably "the empire strikes back" of the series so far. It is the darkest i think with all the characters suffering triumphs and failures with main characters Holt and Ash doing all they can to defeat the Scourge. I cannot wait for the next book to come out and cannot recommend it enough.

epic

I had a great time listening to all three books and can't wait for book 4 to continue the story!

excellent series

I'm not a huge fan of the narrator but this is a great fantasy series.
