Thanks so much to NetGalley for the Audio ARC!

To start with the audiobook/narrator quality - top notch, loved it! Production value was great, the narrator hit the tone perfectly, and it was really fun to listen to.

As for the book itself, WOW I loved it. This was what I wanted from Fourth Wing and felt similar to what I got from the Fireborne trilogy....amazing dragons (with and without riders), fantastic ensemble cast, a heist, magic, a true love triangle (goes all 3 ways)....seriously, it has it all. The fights were epic and easy to follow, the banter was great, the flirting was SPICY (especially the scene on the airship....), the magic and lore were interesting, and to bring it all together it was really well written. 

I don't want to give too much away but this hits all the best parts of a heist book and has amazing dragons too. This was perfectly up my alley and if you enjoy Eragon, Fireborne, Fourth Wing, The Founders Trilogy....I think you'll love this one too!
