With the ascension of T’Aer Bolun Dakkar, a new king now rules the northwestern dragon kingdom. In the unseen world of dragons, even kings must prove themselves worthy, and the appearance of challengers is inevitable. As Jake and T’Aer Bolun Dakkar work tirelessly to address problems plaguing both dragon and human civilizations, dragoneers and eco-terrorists seek to derail their efforts at every turn.

Their search for lasting and peaceful solutions to an impending global disaster are further complicated by a billion-dollar bounty placed on their heads. Nevertheless, they are determined to achieve a balanced ecosystem that supports both dragons and humans, even if—at times—it puts them at odds with both species. Though the obstacles are many, the bond between Jake and T’Aer Bolun Dakkar is a powerful one that will be tested to its very limit, all while attempting to keep the veil separating humans and dragons firmly in place.

Have to start this review with one huge thank you to Riano McFarland for the Dedication to no kill shelters around the world.
I highly recommend this book series to everyone that loves dragons. Was brought to tears several times while reading this second book of the series.
Great read for YA.

Gone is the timid little savant. Jake and Turbo are no longer hesitant to take the steps necessary to save Mother Earth, and the harder they work for progress, the more determined their detractors are to stop them. Fast cars, cruise missiles, and Columbian kingpins are all on the daily agenda of this dynamic duo, to say nothing of a few Yakuza assassins. Laughter, tears, jubilation, and reflection are all cooked up to perfection by Riano McFarland and expertly served by AC Oliver, whose narration is once again superb. All that, plus dragons like you've never experienced them before. An all-around success and entertaining series. 5 stars, of course!

The author writes about all the problems our society has with pollution, Greed and Power of the few who control it. I love the ways these problems are handled in this Story and wish we had a way to correct it too! Narrator does an amazing job with the various characters voices and the entire storyline.

Great Book
