About this listen
She sacrificed her freedom to save the kingdom—and may have doomed them all.
Narissea thought defeating the Metal Queen, Inyene, and claiming the Stone Crown would bring peace. But the victory comes at a harrowing cost: the crown cannot be removed, and its poisonous whispers seep into her mind. It commands dragons across the land to obey her every word, bending even her loyal dragon, Yimma, to its will.
The voices of the world’s dragons thunder in her head, driving her toward madness—until one rises above the rest. It urges her to take the High Throne, rule as queen, and destroy everything in her path.
Desperate to escape the crown’s growing control, Narissea seeks answers from Torvald’s scholar king, hoping to uncover the crown’s dark origins. With her dragon Yimma, her uncle, and her friends Abioye and Montfre by her side, she clings to her humanity. But the crown has its own sinister will—and it will stop at nothing to achieve its ultimate purpose.
As her grip on reality frays and the crown’s influence tightens, Narissea must race to destroy the artifact.
Before it destroys her—and the world she fought to protect.
This book has since been republished with updates. This audiobook is based on the original edition.

After a terrible shipwreck near a deserted island, rescue seems impossible for Del, a stowaway street rat; Etenia, a merchant’s daughter; and Lathan, a retired dragon rider—especially when there’s a kraken lurking offshore, hungry for their only possible means of escape: dragon eggs they’re protecting. Yet the kraken answers to the even deadlier Qapira, a forgotten race sleeping deep in the ocean. No setback will stop them now that they’ve awakened. To survive, they must triumph over the people of Pothena, and they will destroy anyone who stands against them.

I knew three things about my life before adoption: I was a baby rescued from a blazing house fire, I was found in the arms of a dead man, and no one ever came to claim me. No one. Not ever. Now, as a Montreal detective, I'm dedicated to hunting truths for a living. Unheard voices. Cold cases. Unsolved mysteries. Unearthing secrets hidden in the shadows is my jam. Until the fae veil falls . . . When the world learns magic is real, everything changes. Montreal begins seething with prana energy, dormant genes activate, and seemingly normal humans experience magical awakenings.

A good finish to the story
This is a good finish to the trilogy, and I like how it blends in with some of the author's other stories, without really giving anything away or requiring you to read the others. In this book, you really get a feel for just how large the world is that the author has developed, and there is plenty of room for more adventures.
I have to admit that the ending took me by surprise. Over the course of a few chapters I went from sad, to confused, to happy, to thinking "Oh good, a sequel is coming" to "wait, that just took care of the entire sequel in a matter of minutes" to "will there be a sequel to fill in the gaps?" and I am not really sure what I think about all of that. I guess I will have to wait and see what happens in the next round of stories.
As with the other books, the narration was good, but parts annoyed me, especially the haughtiness of the main character. But this did not seem quite as strong in this third book.
I was given a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an unbiased review.

Challenged
I struggle thru this because the narrator was talking so fast. Even when I played with the speed, her voice was annoying.
This is a really good story told by the person.
