About this audiobook

Firedrake, a young dragon, receives a frightening warning one night: Humans are planning to destroy the valley in which he lives! All the dragons must flee. Their only refuge is a place above the clouds called the Rim of Heaven--which may not even exist. Firedrake boldly volunteers to go ahead first. As he embarks on his journey, he meets Ben, a runaway boy. Together, the boy and dragon make their way toward the Rim of Heaven, all the while running a step ahead of Nettlebrand, a monster who will stop at nothing to hunt down Firedrake. Their quest will truly become an adventure like no other.

amazing voice actor, great story. this was the first full book I read when I was a kid. I couldn't put the book down when I first read it and that only took me a few days! this voice actor uses so many different voices it's easy to understand who's talking. thank you Cornelia, you've done a great story!!

I'm 27 with a 6 year old and we both love dragons and I bought this because I love the Author and I love the narrator! I'd buy all the books narrated by Brendan Fraser. Too bad the whole InkHeart series isn't narrated by him, only InkSpell is.

One of the best audio books I've listened to in a long time. Hearing one of my favorite books read by an amazing voice made me so happy.
