Summary
The Witch's Reign...a land of unnatural hellish cold ruled over by the Ice Witch herself, who is in turn guarded by three creatures - Wolf, Bear, and Raven. Those lovely beasts derive their power directly from their mistress and just happen to kill any who cross their paths. To get there, you first must pass through the Dragon's Ground. Full of, you guessed it, dragons who for the record, also do not like trespassers.
Sounds like a fun place to go, doesn't it?
Yeah, not so much.
You see the thing is my best friend, Darcy was sent with a team into the Witch's Reign to recover a powerful jewel that belongs to our mentor, and they are long overdue to come back.
That leaves me, Zamira "Reckless" Wilson to go after my friend because no one else will.
Somehow, I get saddled with a human - a male no less! - tagging along for the ride. A human that is as weak and useless as my shifting abilities.
Throw in a weapon that might be trying to kill me, and a small dragon that has a penchant for Shakespearean insults, and you've got my life in a nutshell.
May the sands of the desert swallow me whole because this is going to be a friggin bumpy ride.

Great series start!
So many ‘ahhhh’ moments about the universe when reading this - fans of Shannon’s work will know what I mean! It’s really well written, with twists that make you just want to rush to the next chapter. Character development is good, too. Lauren is a great Zamira; I’ve heard her narrate other books, but I think this is her best role. All in all, a great book.

Great Start to a New Series - Go Zamira
Great world building, plenty of action and just the right amount of snark. SM writes amazing stories about the underdog and her female leads always turn out to be real badass, strong leading ladies. I always fall in love with her characters (in this case Zam, Mak and Lila) and it’s lovely hearing them brought to life by the wonderful narration of Lauren Fortgang.
I highly recommend this to fans of this genre. And if this isn’t your usual thing, try it, you won’t be disappointed.

A good start to a new series.
A good world-building start. With a lot of complex characters introduced, knowing shannon big things are to come.
Good narration as always with Lauren.

Not great
I read some of the other reviews before buying this. I thought the comment about too much swearing was probably prudish (I prefer swearing to euphemisms) but I actually have to agree, there is so much swearing in this it overpowers the dialogue in places and becomes distracting. Another review said the heroine was stupid - I found the author places the audience way ahead of the heroine in realisations so by the time she figures things out it can appear she’s a bit dim witted. I much prefer this author’s other series. This one falls a little flat.
