Secrets of the Sword 1

Written by Lindsay Buroker

Narrated by Vivienne Leheny

After helping my steady dragon Zav with his family problems, I thought life would get back to normal. As normal as it can be when you’re a hit woman responsible for hunting down bad guys.

That was before a strange artifact showed up in a bog and turned my ancient dwarven sword into a magical beacon. Now my enemies can sense it from hundreds of miles away. More than that, every club-toting, over-muscled orc, ogre, and troll who would like a magic sword can sense it.

Usually, fighting off opportunists wouldn’t be a problem (they don’t call me Ruin Bringer without reason), but even I can only handle so many attacks at a time. And Zav isn’t as much help as you’d think, since he’s busy on a quest for a ring.

No, it’s not a Lord of the Rings kind of quest. My boss put it in Zav's head that since we’re mated in the dragon way, we should also be married in the human way. Now, he’s off to find the perfect engagement ring. Given his taste in human footwear, I may be in trouble for more reasons than my marked sword.

Not only is there no chance of my life getting back to normal any time soon, but if I can’t figure out how to fix my sword, I’ll be dead long before I can get married.

Reviews for Secrets of the Sword 1

[Constance Gray · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I adore this series and cannot get enough of these books! The characters are fun and the narration brings them all to life in unique ways. The author's sense of humor is fantastic, I'd highly recommend this series if you enjoy fantasy fiction that's light on romance, heavy on adventure, with a good dose of sarcasm thrown in.

[Sean Williams · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

The story keeps getting better. Feels like a show on TV with all the moments of chaos and triumph you get during an episode.

[Kimberly C Blankenship · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Love this series. Not your usual "romance". Also like that the heroine isn't 15 or 20 or even 30 and extremely relatable

What's not to love about this book. Val and Zav remain very interesting but so also other characters like the Elven king, the Elvwn princess, Col. Willard, Walker, Dimitri evel Zoltan. Love it. Now let's get ready for a wedding

I am enjoying this series so much.
There are some great one liners in here and the dry humour is right up my alley.



SPOILER ALERT....
The proposal was hilarious! Haha.

Laugh out loud funny without being too predictable. Lively characters. Love the narrator!
