About this listen
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! Couldn't stop listening
Absolutely loved it. Admittedly the beginning was a bit on the slow side but once Tau's mission was established it took off from there. Absolutely loved Tau and his development shaped by revenge, you can feel his anger and his pain. The development of Tau's swordbrothers throughout the story are fantastic.
A lot of fantasy is influenced largely by english history and culture. Winter went a completely different path and took a lot of his inspiration from african/Zulu history and culture. You can see it in his description of Omehi and how they are built. It is a huge breath of fresh air in the genre and one that gripped me from start to finish. Cannot wait for Book 2 which looks set for release end of July 2020.

Jaw dropping
Took a couple of chapters to warm to the book, but then it was beyond addictive and very powerful.
Many of the one star reviews I’ve seen are from the very ignorant who mistakenly believe that class systems and wars are purely a European phenomenon.

Epic Story & Character Power Progression
An awesome and fresh take on a fantasy epic, that manages to be both intimate and grand in scope. The development of the main character is also superbly written.
All round, this is an extremely enjoyable book.
