Summary

The Omehi people have been fighting an unwinnable war for generations. The lucky ones are born gifted: some have the power to call down dragons, others can be magically transformed into bigger, stronger, faster killing machines.

Everyone else is fodder, destined to fight and die in the endless war. Tau Tafari wants more than this, but his plans of escape are destroyed when those closest to him are brutally murdered.

With too few gifted left the Omehi are facing genocide, but Tau cares only for revenge. Following an unthinkable path, he will strive to become the greatest swordsman to ever live, willing to die a hundred thousand times for the chance to kill three of his own people.

The Rage of Dragons launches an unmissable epic fantasy series about a world caught in an endless war and the young man who will become his people's only hope for survival.

Outstanding fresh take on a warrior society story

Gripping lead character who it's almost impossible not to empathise with even as he makes self destructive choices in a personal struggle against racism and classism. Set on a backdrop of war and intrigue, where the obstacles he faces are more often due to the biases and predjudices of his peers and contempories than the actual enemy his people are at war with.

Just what I was looking for...

After listening to the 5 Red Rising books, I needed a story and narrator to match the epic and dark sci-fi tale - I was not disappointed with this and looking forward to the sequel.

An excellent story with an amazing narrator

The start put me off a little in that I felt it went from relentless to a little slow, but by the gods once it gets going shortly after that it's a RIDE! One of the best narrator I've had the pleasure of listening to. He really made every character come to life and has a distinct voice and accent for each, even side characters! I can't wait for the sequel!
