How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsWhat a great ride!
Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2019
When Sarah finished her Luv Beaufont series I was bummed out. It was like one of the best storylines ever was gone.
At this point I found out that her younger sister would be in a new series, and they be Dragons! Far out!
I pre ordered the book and it showed up a couple of days ago. I was reading an old favorite so I finished that book first.
This book flat out kicks ass!!! You can tell how much of yourself you put in this story. I have two friends who are always asking about "What you reading now? I wish I had time to read" my usual response is yeah, and I wish I could walk. This year some of my friends are getting Fire tablets pre-order with some of my personal favorites, this book will be on that list. Keep them coming. It's getting cold, and my chair will not go in the snow.
Hope you made it through the fires unscathed

Peace!

1.0 out of 5 starsNot worth a dime
Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2020
Trite. Simplistic. Obvious. Plot holes miles wide. Deux machina every second line. Not believable. Characters less than one dimensional. To make matters worse the book is the written version of clickbait. No ending just: buy the next book. Drivel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Encourages Strong Women in a Positive Way!
Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2019
Verified Purchase
I absolutely enjoyed this book. I am a longtime fan of the Dragonriders of Pern series, but have always been a little uncomfortable with the way the dragon overpowers the rider, and of course I don’t like how women are second class citizens on Pern. This first Dragonrider Elite book emphasizes the equal partnership between the rider and the dragon, and helps Sophia recognize her Strengths and Responsibilities as a Woman in what was always considered a man’s world. Without women, this world is only half alive and only half productive, and her sister Liv is a great role model for her in how to interact with the older Dragon Elites. This book could have gone heavily to one side or the other, but actually remains perfectly balanced, recognizing that everyone needs to learn from each other to do the best for others and themselves. I’m glad I purchased this book and look forward to the next one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sophia comes into her own as a courageous Dragon rider! Excellent first book in the series
Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2019

Sophie really takes charge of her destiny as the first female Dragon Elite. She is so edgy, undaunted, and courageous as she travels alone to begin training with the Dragon Elite. This book is a fast read, I didn't want to put it down. Lunis is still growing and begins his own training with the dragons. Saying Sophie is not what was expected as a new Dragon Rider is a gross understatement! Sophie must fight for her right to be right to stay and be trained as a Dragon Elite. I loved every minute and page!

Sarah has continued her amazing win streak with this new series! Sophie and her dragon are upending the entire world,not to mention the expectations of a group of heroes who have been in hiding these past few hundred years.
Oh,the humanity! It hurts so good!

Wow, it has been sometime since I enjoyed a fantasy book as much as I have the opening of this series. It says a lot for story for me to fore go sleep inordered to finish a huge book. Sarah has managed to capture the world of dragonriders unlike most since Author Anne McCaffery first introduce me to the Dragon riders of Pern as a young boy. I personally think if you have follow the story world of Olivia Beaufont, then you will utterly fall in love with this story of Sophie and her dragon Lunis. It is the cynical and sarcastic humour that will force you to laugh. I recommend you pick up a copy today.

Another great series. Sophia is another strong woman character even though She is very young.She must make her way in a man's world. As her Dragon grows, they make a formidable team. They rock the Dragon Elite to its core. Anxiously awaiting Book 2.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, witty and smart series
Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2020

I loved the Liv Beaufont series (recommend reading first) and so naturally had to read this spin-off. I love that the characters that I grew to love in the first series are still part of this one. Each book is a full length, 150+ chapters, story. Very generous length and all of it is quality. I love the snark, the action, the never-ending quests, the pace and the characters. Highly recommend!

Another set of characters to love and hate has come into my life with this series. Liv, Plato, John, Rory, Rudolph, Sophia, Adler, Decar just to name a few. Some characters I am on the fence about.
After tragedy strikes Liv's family, again, she has to step up as a warrior to keep her family in the House of Seven. Follow her adventures starting now.

I have departed from MA’s crowd for the last few months, mainly to give them time to finish some series so I don’t have to wait. Ha. I loved the series about Liv, and was just waiting for Sophia to “grow up” so I could enjoy her adventures. I don’t think they are quite complete, but I read slow. Write, Sarah, write!

Ms Noffke and Mr Anderle have written an excellent book. Well crafted plot with solid characters. Many twist and turns keep you guessing and the energy high! I truly look forward to reading more of their work!
