In the Labyrinth of Drakes: the thrilling new audiobook in the acclaimed fantasy series from Marie Brennan, as the glamorous Lady Trent takes her adventurous explorations to the deserts of Akhia.

Even those who take no interest in the field of dragon naturalism have heard of Lady Trent's expedition to the inhospitable deserts of Akhia. Her discoveries there are the stuff of romantic legend, catapulting her from scholarly obscurity to worldwide fame. The details of her personal life during that time are hardly less private, having provided fodder for gossips in several countries.

As is so often the case in the career of this illustrious woman, the public story is far from complete. In this, the fourth volume of her memoirs, Lady Trent relates how she acquired her position with the Royal Scirling Army; how foreign saboteurs imperiled both her work and her well-being; and how her determined pursuit of knowledge took her into the deepest reaches of the Labyrinth of Drakes, where the chance action of a dragon set the stage for her greatest achievement yet.

I am hooked. I just finished In the Labyrinth of Drakes after I had also gone quickly and anxiously through the previous books in this series. I am entertained am thoroughly impressed with the intellect and planning and craftiness by which Ms. Brennan has created these stories. I cannot wait to start Book 5.
Ms. Reading is amazing in her performance and ability to voice the characters with such distinct individuality. Bravo!

Can’t stop listening

The last book in the series is PHENOMENAL, and this book is well worth reading to get to it, but this is by a long shot my least favorite of the series.

Slight spoilers ahead. Nothing specific, just on the direction of the story.

No animal lover can read through this without severe discomfort. The fact is, once a government finds an animal to be a resource, that animal will be mistreated to the max. Not Lady Trent's fault, but hard to choke through in parts.

At least Lady Trent had some nice personal moments in the story to balance the horror to the dragons.

worth it to finish the series only

It was intriguing and exciting from the start to the end. I loved listening to it.

Exciting

I love this series. I've listened to it 3 times? 4? I'll listen again. The narrator is brilliant, perfect for the character.

if you've read this far you'll love the whole series. if you're starting here, well, you'll still love the whole series.

Might be my favorite in the series

I'm loving this series; both in story, and performance. I'm looking forward to the next (and concluding) novel eagerly!

Fascinating take on Archeology & Dragons!

I was skeptical when I first found this series at a bar es and nobles years ago but after an hour of down time over some coffee I've come to appreciate the power of a good story. little drawn out here and there at times but ultimately...i love the series! 🙂

dorky series

Marie Brennan spins another dragon tale in a most engaging fashion. She engages the reader early, and the story unwinds smoothly and urbanely, full of wry humour, with a plot that makes sense.

Ms. Brennan's equal in talent, Kate Reading delivers another peerless performance. She does justice to the genteel humour in the tale, and is really just perfect as the voice of the heroine.

Another gem

I enjoyed this one even more than the first 3. The author seems to be really hitting her stride. And developments in the major story arcs were great, moving the series along nicely!

Best one yet!

It has been several months since I finished book 3, but I finallly listened to book 4, and I was not disappointed. Isabel Camherst and Tom Wilkers are still working on their studies of dragons, and they are now working for the military to create a breeding program for dragons. Every attempt thus far has been unsuccessful; will Isabel and Tom be successful?

Of course, if all they had to do was start a successful breeding program, things might be simple. But their progress is complicated by politics, previous acquaintances reappearing, attempted murders, kidnappings, and the ever-consistent underestimation of Lady Camherst due to her sex.

But none of that will stop Camherst and Wilkers.

I have loved this series since I listened to the first one, and book 4 does not disappoint. I loved going back into this world, aided by Kate Reading's narration - there could not be a better voice for Lady Camherst. I cannot wait until I have a chance to listen to book 5, though I also know i will be sad at finishing the series and leavig the world. As such, this will absolutely be a serues that I listen to more than once.

Another great story for the series
