Free Audiobook : The Dragon’s Promise (Six Crimson Cranes, Book 2), by Elizabeth Lim

"The Dragon's Promise" is Elizabeth Lim’s next move after "Six Crimson Cranes," and it’s a stunner, brought to life by Emily Woo Zeller’s narration. Shiori, Kiata’s magic-wielding princess, thought she’d earned a breather after saving her brothers, but a dragon’s calling in a favor she can’t dodge. This audiobook throws her into a storm of promises and peril, where every step forward feels like a tightrope walk.

That cursed pearl from her stepmother’s past? It’s not just a trinket; it’s a key to chaos, pulling Shiori from her homeland to a world of dragon lords and shadowy deals. She’s got Takkan and her brothers in her corner, but the deeper she digs, the more she risks losing herself to forces she barely understands. It’s a tangle of trust and temptation, with a kingdom’s fate riding on her shoulders.

Lim keeps the magic flowing, mixing East Asian myths with a story that’s got heart and teeth. This isn’t a gentle follow-up; it’s Shiori facing down her biggest test yet, full of surprises that hit you right in the feels. Cue it up and get ready for a listen that’s as lush as it is intense, a sequel that stands tall on its own.
