About this listen
For millennia, dragons and humans have shared the Earth. For most of that time, it has been a peaceful coexistence, primarily because contemporary human civilizations considered dragons to be nothing more than fairytales created from the fanciful imaginings of cave-dwelling hunter-gatherers. In truth, they have always been an integral part of a healthy planetary biosphere, and without them, Earth's environmental balance would have collapsed long ago.
Since the age of eleven, Jacob Payne has been leading the charge in integrating the knowledge of ancient dragons into the innovative technologies that play a key role in the survival and proliferation of the human race. Although their contributions to sustained ecological balance can be found around the globe, the presence of dragons themselves, had been intentionally concealed behind a voluntary veil of separation that effectively prevented the co-mingling of Earth's two dominant species.
When that veil was removed by the President of the United States, following the heroic actions of dragons in repelling an extraterrestrial invasion by the Drokarians, and preventing the planetary takeover by an ancient Deep-Earth species known as borlamites, many people embraced their new-found neighbors. Others did not.
In the wake of a tragedy involving a Royal Norwegian Navy frigate, in which nearly one hundred seamen lost their lives, the blame was laid at the feet of a dragon, and suddenly unwarranted fear crept into the psyches of many who had previously embraced and revered them. Despite the tireless advocacy of Jacob and Danielle Payne, the entirety of the dragon species faces a crucible in which the very civilization they have rescued from the brink of extinction, now seems to be turning against them.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 10,115
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Oh, To Be Jake Payne!
I've read all of the Jake's Dragon books, and AC Oliver brings the story to life in grand form. His voicing for the different characters and dragons is remarkable. Of course, McFarland's ability to create a world in which dragons still live and make it believable is absolutely stunning. There's no profanity or excessive violence, but this story, like all the others in the series, is absolutely compelling! I hope there will be another JD book in the future.

Farewell is such sweet sorrow. This is the end of the series.
Jake Dragon 7 maybe the finale of the series, but the characters will live on. We went on a marry adventure with Riano D. McFarland and A.C. Olive, they both made the story reality for us in the way you can only imagine. The conclusion will made everyone happy in that every character fought their soulmate and did what they could to be remembered. TheSaying “knowledge is power” is not always a good thing. Humanity and dragons safe the worlds from the evil forces, just for humanity to turn around and accuse the dragons of doing something wrong. I did get the book for free for a honest review.

Goodness Prevails!
Riano D. McFarland does it again. Along with great narrating by AC Oliver, Mr. McFarland writes a wholesome, happy tale about the Paynes, King T’Aer Bolun Dakkar, and all the other dragons and their bonded riders. It's a simple, well-written story appropriate for all ages. He has created a utopia that is refreshing to believe in and be swept into amidst all the backbiting and turmoil in the world today.
I received this book for free in return for an hones review.

Amazing series!
This is a lovely conclusion to an exceptional series. I like that McFarland found a soul mate for each of the main characters throughout the series. While I know the Pain family stories could go on for ever, I was happy with the way this book wraps up the series.
The narrator is flawless as usual and am amazed by his smooth pronunciation of the dragon names.

Once again Another Chapter in thier Story
I find so many simular references to life and world events in this Series to the World nowadays. I just wish we had champions to help correct all the terrible things human kind has done to this planet in the name of greed and power. Narrator does a Great job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

Final
This was the final story in the dragon science fiction fantasy series. The gist of the story was easy to follow, if a bit simplistic and unrealistic, and it was appropriate for an adult audience in content. It had a lot of foul language and violence, as well as allusions to inappropriate behavior. I would not recommend it for a younger audience.
