Karyne (00:00:07) – Hi fantasy readers. This is Karyne Norton, your fellow book binger, and you are listening to the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast where you can test out a new fantasy story every single week to find your next favorite author.
You’ll want to stick around for today’s story if you like vast worlds, prequels, and dragons. It’s written by Jasmine Young, a noble dark fantasy author. She first dreamed of becoming published after devouring Eragon in a few days on her grandma’s couch at the age of 13, and now she has over 15 titles under her belt. When she’s not reminiscing about her gaming days or getting lost in old epics like Lord of the Rings, Jasmine writes a blend of epic, romantic, dark, and progression fantasy to entertain and empower, especially the underdogs.
Today’s narrator is Paeter Frandsen, host of Christian Geek Central. Stick around to the end or check out today’s show notes to see where you can find more from both the author and the narrator. For now, please enjoy A Descent of Dragons by Jasmine Young.

Karyne (00:29:15) – I hope you enjoyed listening to A Descent of Dragons by Jasmine Young, narrated by Paeter Frandsen of Christian Geek Central. If you want to read more by Jasmine, go to jasmineyoungauthor.com to find more of her books. And if you enjoy this story in particular, it’s a prequel to her Realm Breaker series, so you’ll want to start with the first book called A Breaking of Realms. I’ll have a direct link to both her site and that book in the show notes.
If you enjoyed listening to Paeter narrate the story, you might also enjoy listening to his audio dramas at spiritblade.com or his podcast, Christian Geek Central, where he discusses movies, video games, and all things enjoyed by self-proclaimed geeks from a Christian worldview.
