‘Dragon School’ is outstanding YA fantasy adventure featuring Amel Leafbrought, a teenage girl beginning her career as a  dragon rider. 


Despite significant physical and social challenges, Amel demonstrates determination, integrity and resilience, presenting a really good role model for young people who often confront obstacles of one kind or another in achieving their goals. Her discovery of abilities that others do not have is a powerful element of Amel’s narrative, and serves as a strong encouragement for others who experience physical disabilities or limitations. 


Amel's experiences of other people, whether peers, teachers or dragons, demonstrate important lessons about the importance of careful discernment about who should be trusted, and about the true nature of friendship. 


This series is highly original and well constructed. The story progresses at a very good pace, with plenty of adventure balanced by reflection and the development of friendships and connections between characters. The imagery is colourful and detailed, the characters diverse and varied, and the complications and problems they face are compelling. 


The world building is unique and interesting, featuring complex and thought-provoking social systems, detailed and thoughtful architecture, and geography quite unique to this world. 


The narration by Jigisha Patel, is clear and fluent, with excellent diction and expression, although there are a couple of minor errors. Her use of voice and tone to develop character and deliver the narrative results in a compelling story that is as engaging and enjoyable as Wilson’s writing. 


While there are more episodes to follow, this audiobook ends with sufficient resolution to satisfy the audience, and a tantalising promise of more adventure to come.

Outstanding YA fantasy adventure.

I really enjoyed these 5 episodes. The narrator wasn't boring and tried to make the reading have light and shade

Breaks in the middle of sentences, really messes up the flow, reduces the ability to make sense of the book when you’re doing other things like driving. Husband was convinced this was an AI narrator. Either it was AI or never read the page before narrating it. Sloppy work. Serves me right for not listening to a preview.

Good story, pity about the terrible narration

Hard to know who said what as narrator could have made different characters voices clearer.

Young narrator but fantastic story

I think the story is quite imaginative and original. unfortunately it is in need of a good editor to tighten it up and a narrator who has a better range of voice differentiation and doesn't sound so stilted. in spite of this I did enjoy it

great story
