Stronghold

Dragon Star Series, Book 1

By: Melanie Rawn

Narrated by: Christa Lewis

With her widely acclaimed, best-selling fantasy trilogy, Dragon Prince, Melanie Rawn opened an enchanted gateway to a spellbinding universe of Sunrunner's magic and sorcerous evil, of a ruler fighting to bring peace to a world of warring kingdoms, and of the dragons - deadly dangerous yet holding the secret to wealth beyond imagining.

Now, in Stronghold, the first novel of Melanie's Dragon Star trilogy, there is a devastating new challenge to the power of both the High Prince Rohan and Andry, Lord of the Sunrunners at Goddess Keep, as a mysterious and seemingly unstoppable invasion force swarms across their lands. For Andry it signals the start of a nightmare made real, the horrifying fulfillment of his long-ago visions of his homeland in flames, and he will draw upon even the forbidden sorcerer's magic in an attempt to destroy this enemy which is bent on the extermination of all Sunrunners.

Rohan and his son Pol will also fight the enemy with every weapon at their command - from their valiant warriors, to conjurations with sun, moons, and stars, to the terrifying presence of the dragons, to the unforgiving wrath of the Desert itself. Yet soon they begin to fear that this invasion may prove not only the end of their dream of an unbreakable peace but the beginning of the end of their entire world....

Great story

A really great story and the person reading it. There’s a really great job and really captivate you.

This is my favorite book series

I read these six books over and over. I listen while I clean, on long drives, and when I go to bed. It does not get old to me and I have had to buy new books because they only come in paperback. I even buy this book series as gifts for my grown children and close friends so they too may enjoy it… or at least understand my love for it hopefully.

OMGOODNESS!!!

I didn’t see that coming!!! I cried real tears!!! Holy cow!!!
I had a little trouble following all the storylines but the main characters…wow
I’m still not sure if Andre and Paul would actually act that way…IDK…
Anyway, overall I have a new favorite author!

Good books

I've been enjoying these books and the narration but I think this one was hard for me because it had so many characters especially with all the children and grandchildren that it was hard to keep track of who was who.

the details are amazing

I never listened to this type of book before, but I soon became hooked on this world building and character detail. War, dragons and unruly wicked women. witches and elves and demons "Oh my!"
