Summary
Kullen is the emperor’s assassin. The sharp hand of justice. The Black Talon.
Gifted a soul-forged bond with his dragon, Umbris, Kullen is tasked with hunting any and all who oppose the empire.
But when the secretive Crimson Fang murders two noblemen before his very eyes, Kullen must discover the truth of who they are and what they want. What he uncovers is a web of lies and deceit spiraling into the depths of Dimvein.
Natisse, a high-ranking member of the rebellion known as the Crimson Fang, has no greater goal than to rid Dimvein of power-hungry nobles. Haunted by her past, fire, flames, and the death of her parents, she sets out to destroy the dragons and those who wield them as unstoppable weapons of destruction.
Until she, too, finds herself buried beneath the weight of the revelations her investigations reveal.... The empire is under siege from within, and one man, dressed in black like the night, stands at the epicenter of it all.
Black Talon is the first book in Dragonblood Assassin from number one Audible and Washington Post best seller Jaime Castle and epic-fantasy legend Andy Peloquin, perfect for fans of the Forgotten Realms, Joe Abercrombie, David Dalglish, and Kel Kade.

Great book, great performers
Ignore the people saying performers were bad, they've never read sanderson and it shows.
Characters were a bit dark in a good way, made them feel like real people. Magic system is interesting, dragons are kinda realm hoppers which is cool.
Michael Kramer and Kate Reading are fantastic.
Finished the book and immediately looked for the second only to realise the book released a couple of weeks ago so I will have a wait ahead of me, but if you finish a book and are disappointed there's not more I feel like that's a pretty good indicator.

Not sure...
Narration great as usual from Michael Kramer & Kate Reading but not sure on the story at present, will need to re-read (probably when book 2 arrives) to make a decision.
Would normally have just given stars as a placeholder but Audible no longer allows this :o(

Great flow
Good use of male and female storytelling. engaging tale making the characters struggle stand out as both strong but with humane weaknesses

Liked it
It was included in the membership and with Kate & Michael narrating this I had to give it a go. I really liked it and got invested in the characters, and even though it was quite predictable at times the ending was a surprise. I recommend it, looking forward to reading the second book.

A great story and very good performers
I really like the story and the characters are a bit dark, but in a good way!
It made them feel like real people.
The magic system is interesting, the dragons residens in another realm, which I find interesting.
Michael Kramer and Kate Reading are fantastic narrators and and they do a great job!
