Acerca de esta escucha

From the author of The Dragon’s Blade Trilogy and the narrator of The Witcher series, comes the start of a new dragon rider epic combining the best of Eragon and Pern with the hard magic of Brandon Sanderson and Will Wight.

Holt Cook was never meant to be a dragon rider. He has always served the Order Hall of the Crag dutifully, keeping their kitchen pots clean.

Until he discovers a dark secret: dragons do not tolerate weakness among their kin, killing the young they deem flawed. Moved by pity, Holt defies the Order, rescues a doomed egg and vows to protect the blind dragon within.

But the Scourge is rising. Undead hordes roam the land, spreading the blight and leaving destruction in their wake. The dragon riders are being slaughtered and betrayal lurks in the shadows.

Holt has one chance to survive. He must cultivate the mysterious power of his dragon's magical core. A unique energy which may tip the balance in the battles to come, and prove to the world that a servant is worthy after all.

About the Creator - Michael R. Miller

About the Creator

Michael R. Miller: Hailing from the wet and wild west coast of Scotland, Michael enjoys writing stories as sweeping in scope as the ancient landscapes he grew up in. His writing is known for rich character arcs, tight pacing, and layered magic systems. Songs of Chaos is his love letter to the dragon rider sub-genre, drawing inspiration from the classics like Pern, Dragonlance, and Eragon and combining them with the harder magic systems of Branden Sanderson and Will Wight, creating an epic tale all ages can enjoy.
Michael is also ‘that guy’ who enjoys-well, enjoyed... -discussing the mad fan theories of Game of Thrones even more than the books or show, and knows more about World of Warcraft than is probably healthy.

Old riff, done well and with new twists. Flavors of Anne McCaffrey, xanxia/ LitRPG without the game mechanics, and zombies. Comes off as YA because of clean language and no sex scenes— not a negative unless that is what you were looking for. Satisfying character development, and growing complexity after a simple start. Great reader for these characters. Will buy next book pre-sale :-)

Dragons, zombies, and coming of age story

LitRPG-style stories can feel like a bit of a grind sometimes (pun intended) due to corny-feeling rank and experience systems, but this story of Holt and Talia is well-rounded with the intriguing and exciting story and likable characters being prioritized well above LitRPG elements. The world feels rich and deep as well, with a larger challenge overlaying smaller obstacles that range from political intrigue to personal loss to courage in the face of disability to a straight-up terrifying local invasion. I will definitely listen to the next installment if/when it becomes available.

Surprisingly Well-Developed and Accessible

Michael R Miller's Ascendant (Book 1 in the Songs of Chaos series) is a wonderful adventure for those missing great dragon rider stories.

An homage to McCaffrey's Dragon Riders of Pern series, with the moving of damaged eggs and the feeing of the hatchlings. This is a new spin, with magic and new types of dragons.

Holt and Ash must grow up quicker than any dragon and rider of the Crag. Intrigue in the palace court and betrayal by those sworn to protect the land from the Scourge. Two dragons have survived the attack and must help those on their travel to the palace.

Watch this new series by a young author! I foresee many years of wonderful adventures.

I am in LOVE with this new series.

Quite enjoyed the story and characters. Looking forward to starting book 2 and finding out what happens next! For those who finish book 1 I highly recommend reading the novella about Brode.

I seriously debated whether to get this book or not, but finally decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did! I totally enjoyed listening to this book. I actually preferred it to Brisinger.
A youth, on the brink of becoming an apprentice cook under his father, steals an imperfect dragon egg set aside for destruction. This story follows his path as he and his dragon, despite being rejected for their imperfections, grow in strength and responsibility. The author did a good job of showing the process of a boy seeing his ideals slowly replaced by the realities of the world around him.

Unfortunately, the sequel isn't out yet, but I knew that when I bought it. I'm keeping a credit available for it. Take a chance on this book if you like books about young men growing up with dragons, books by Paolini or Mccaffrey, or books with swords and magic.

I would rate this YA book PG, only for the blood and war.

I recommend this book.

I wasn’t looking for this and it came across my attention. I gave it a try and loved it. Great story, nice twist and the ending had me wanting more. Can’t wait for the next book.
