THE FIREBORNE BLADE The Fireborne Blade, Book 1

by | Read by Helen McAlpine

Fantasy • 4.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2024

Helen McAlpine narrates a simple yet powerful story of a lady knight who is seeking to reclaim her honor. To restore her title, Maddileh must retrieve the fireborne blade from a legendary dragon called the White Lady. She also navigates other challenges such as sexism, because she's a female knight, and confusion over whom she can trust. McAlpine's wispy narration is a great fit for this fantasy, the first in a series. Her narration is a mix of the mysterious and the serene. The cast of characters are given distinct voices, especially Maddileh, whose strong voice reflects her determination to reach her goal. This is a satisfying start to a new series.
