About this listen

Winner of the 2017 Dragon Award for Best Military Science Fiction or Fantasy Novel

I am Armor. I am fury. I will not fail.

Soldiers of the Terran Armor Corps wage war across the stars. Wired into mechanized battle suits, they fight the terrifying battles which must be won, no matter the cost. Their deeds are legend, their reputation feared by the enemies of Earth and her allies, but how the Corps forges young men and women into mighty warriors is shrouded by mystery.

Roland Shaw lost his parents to war, he volunteers for the Armor Corps to honor their memory and discover just how far he can push himself. To succeed, he must find the iron in his heart and prove himself worthy to the Corps. For the Armor, there is no substitute for victory and to fail is to die.

Iron Dragoons is an action-packed military sci-fi novel, the first of a new series by the author of The Ember War Saga.

Better than I thought

I couldn’t get through the ember wars. This one was much better. Though I don’t have the complete story it didn’t matter. It was entertaining. Slow at times.

Great world and universe!

I continue to love the world that Richard Fix has created and am ecstatic that this new series goes deeper into my favourite group of characters. My one criticism is that this book feels more like part one of a larger book rather than a book unto itself.

For new readers/listeners, I recommend listing to or reading the previous series , the Ember Wars before reading this book.

Happy listening!

Pretty good, for a start.

Story was pretty generic as a marine going through basic but the book is well write the characters feel real and interesting and even though the plot was lacking the action was great and it felt like a good start to a series.

Love this continuation series

Richard Fox knows how to weave a good mil scifi story, that's for sure. If you are thinking about reading this series I would HIGHLY recommend reading the Ember War series first as this is a branch off from that series. This takes place roughly 15years after the events from the Ember Wars, and while so far it looks like he wrote it in such a way that you ca, in theory, start here without being totally lost, you will be missing so much emotional context behind why the armor corps is what it is. Who is minder and why is she called that? Who are Hale and Standish and why are they so important? Why was armor park made? Who was Elias and who were the Iron Hearts? All of these questions and more are from the original series. If you read this first you won't be too lost, again its fairly self contained. But I guarantee you that without reading the Ember War first, you will not be able to fully appreciate the emotional roller coaster that come with saying "I Am Armor!"

Enjoyed it

The voice was kind of harsh but the world was creative. Setting and characters were solid.

I honestly can't stand this narrator

I didn't even get through the first 5 chapters I would imagine the story is pretty good and it sounded pretty good but the narrator in general was terrible
