With Aven Dalmarta now hiding in the shadows of Meya, Alex is desperate to save Jordan and keep the Rebel Prince from taking more lives.

Training day and night to master the enhanced immortal blood in her veins, Alex undertakes a dangerous Meyarin warrior trial that separates her from those she loves and leaves her stranded in a place where nothing is as it should be.

As friends become enemies and enemies become friends, Alex must decide who to trust as powerful new allies—and adversaries—push her towards a future of either light… or darkness.

What can I say about this book except wow. I loved the first 2 so much but this one was even better than them.  Knowing I have to wait for the next book in the series makes me really sad. I loved reading about Alexs new adventure and how time travel came into play in this book. I don't want to say to much about this book as a lot of the story will give spoilers. 
I loved reading about a younger Roka, Aven and Niyx and meeting Xiraxus. I have to say Niyx surprised me in this book and I loved how Lynette Noni made everything I thought I knew about this series and switched it up. I can not wait for the next book and see what happens next in this series.
The only thing that I was sad about when it comes to this book was not having more of D.C, Bear and Jordan in the story, I missed reading about them and the school (I have to admit I wish I went to that school myself)
I ended up rating this book 5 out of 5 stars, this book has become one of my favourite series I have found this year.

OMG that ending was great and awful at the same time!!! I don't want to wait till February to see how this ends!
Ok, now craziness aside, this book was great, because we get to know why it all happened in the past, and wow did it get me dizzy! I loved getting to know the much younger mereyans , especially Niyx, which was a surprise. 

I want to finish this review by saying that if you don't like cliffhangers, you're going to be mad at the end :)

Sadly I am unable to read the second book due to the first one making no sense. It's as if the entire first two chapters of the book were copy and pasted wrong and out of order. Unfortunately I had to stop trying to understand what was going on therefore I am unable to read or reccomend these books. I had such high hopes too.

The third book in this series and I'm still hooked! This particular story takes the reader away from the now familiar halls of Akarnae, to the newly discovered Lost City of Meya. The true reason Alex's nemesis Aven is the crazy psychopath we hate and adore is revealed. I will say I wasn't as completely enraptured by this book as the first two, thus only three stars. There's a disruption in the flow of events from the previous books since we hop back in time on a dragon- cause why not... And much to my dismay, the beloved faces of Dix and Bear were incognito. I suppose the backstory of our villain does warrant its own book, but I was rather disappointed since it felt like we weren't even properly acquainted with the rules of the human populace of Medora before we were thrown a whole new set of rules that seem incongruent from what we previously learned. There were some definite weak spots in the world building, and it seems like there were additions made just for the sake of validating hastily tacked on rules. I also thought the reason why Aven is evil was shallow and not really justifiable, at least given what we have to work with thus far. Other than that, the story and flow of the writing was still great, and I couldn't put it down. Some parts were a little cheeseball but not gag worthy by any means. And although not my favorite book of the series I'm very excited to see how the rest of it goes! I really, really can't wait for the next book to be out!

4,5 stars

Very intense and darker than the last two books. A lot of new information is coming our way, more worldbuilding which I appreciated. You also see some characters from very different angles this time which was very interesting and added to their depths and complexity. Half of the cast is missing, though. I understand why, but still, I missed them heavily. There is a new race we learn about and I wished we would have seen more of them. But man, that ending! I need the next book right now. I am not able to properly process my emotions at this moment but what I know for sure is that with every book this series just gets better and better!

A fantastic high fantasy middle grade series, which is just as enjoyable for adults too! I can't wait to get my hands on book 4!

I had no clue what was going on in this book. I didn't realize this was the second in the series. I wish that had been stated plainly or I would not have chosen to read it. That said I feel like I can't give this one much of a review since I haven't read any other books in this series.

I just couldn't get into this book as i hadn't a clue what was happening. It was obvious from the start that it could not be read as a stand alone book and to understand it you needed to have read the first book in the series. 

Without any kind of introduction, the book just jumps into the action ( i presume from a point that the previous book left off). As someone who hasn't read the previous book, i had no idea who the characters were, where they were based and the business about all the powers they have as well as many of the words and phrases used that are unique to the characters world.

Received from NetGalley 'Read Now'.  'Akarnae' arrived in a choppy format and I am unable to read.  Sentences are cut off mid-way and other sentences start half-way into something (different.)  Impossible to string together a coherent paragraph.  Please set up 'Akarnae'  with a new format and send, if possible.  Cannot read 'Draekora' without reading book 1 of this series.

ARC - I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
Alex is still trying to get home.
In this book, Alex is training to get stronger + trying to learn more about her abilities.
She needs to get better in order to defeat Aven.
The author does it again.
I am enjoying reading about Alex's journey.
There are new twists + turn in this installment.
I can't wait to ready book 4

Lynette Noni hit it out of the park with Draekora. After waiting so long after book two to keep reading Alex's story I was disappointed at first when I realised the premise of this book (I can't explain further without spoilers!) however I quickly forgot all about my apprehensions. This story delves very deeply into the past of some characters that had been previously on the sidelines which quickly became very intriguing!
You know those moments in a book when something comes to light and your like "AHH It totally makes sense now!". Lynette Noni is now officially the queen of that feeling! This book made so many things make sense that I didn't even know hadn't made sense! So many details that helped make the previous two books even more amazing!
I absolutely cannot wait for Graevale to come out on Feburary 1st!

This book is one of the few great of uses of time travel for a plot without being a tangled confusing web. The character development of the lead made her even more likable. Look forward to any future additions

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I love this series, it explores many different worlds which gives an unique angle. I was a little mystified at one point thinking that it going off on a tangent, but it brought it back to the story after a while. I did like the twists, they left me trying to get my head round some of it., but in the best way.

The story explained some key details of the past that really helped the story. Favourite characters were back along with some exciting new ones. It was nice to see Alex’s powers developing. I am very much looking forward to seeing what happens in the next one.

4 out of 5 stars

This book was so fantastical! I read this first and it took me a bit to figure everything out but it was still an amazing read. I absolutely plan to read the first 2. The heroine is written so well. I love the mystical element to the story. The story lines were very intriguing. Many of the characters were an enigma to me; waiting to find out if there were good or bad. I enjoyed the writing style of Lynette Noni very much. I am looking forward to book 4.

Amazing storytelling despite a few elements of predictability the story stuck with me long after I was done reading. 
This book made me love the supporting characters (which spanned the meyans)! We get to get a glimpse of how normal life Medora was before Aven disrupted everything...and best of all getting to see the shift of character in Aven firsthand...and it was pretty well done, if though a bit predictable to me. The way the story began to descended into a darker atmosphere as we are being lead into a seemingly inevitable was intriguing and well developed. 
I was full of emotions as we strode to what would be the breaking point of the once perfect Meya and it did not disappoint me...tearfully. And then there’s a whirlpool of events that take place in the present it felt me dizzy (in a good way) and I wondered - worried how Alex would sort her way through but Alex is a remarkably strong character and we do see her grow in this book and by then its promising that the next sequel will not disappoint. 
And no I haven’t forgotten the Draekons...Xira reminded me so much of Toothless in some way...maybe his adorability. And how Alex and even me chummied up with him from the start. Lynette Noni knows how to portray friendship so beautifully its leaves me all warm and fuzzy!

Brilliant. This series goes from strength to strength. Nice bit of foreshadowing with the queen's comments but yet I was still shocked when everything kicked off. Great to get back story. I cannot wait to see what happens next.

"[n]ever forget that you are stronger than you realise and more capable than you could ever imagine." - Draekora by Lynette Noni 

This book absolutely slayed me because I loved Raelia, but Draekora just took the story to a whole new level and went turbo. My immediate thoughts after reading this book was that I was not psychologically prepared for where it was taking me. It's so good guys! It's darker, surprising, more plot twists, back stories, adventure and so much more that if I say anymore it would be a spoiler! It's the most ambitious of all three books in the Medoran Chronicles due to the premise, plot, character development, and world building. This story has all the feels, and parts which just broke me because by now you're in love with the characters and seriously invested. So I can't recommend this book enough, please read it and let us know what you think! I will probably have to re read this before Graevale next year!

Admittedly, I got the sample of this book unaware that it was the third book of a series. That being said, the plot and characters were still intriguing enough to keep me interested even though I was a little lost. There's a good chance I'm going to go back and read the first parts of the series.

THIS BOOK LYNETTE BLOWS MY MIND AFTER EVERY BOOK 

You know those series where they just get better and better with every new release? That is this series. As much as I though Arkarnae was a bit meh 3/5 stars I'm so happy I decided to continue on. Draekora is the third installment of the Medoran Chronicles and so good, I mean it has Dragons sorry Draekons so I was already pretty sure this would be amazing but it surprised me. 

Alex our main character has grown so much I mean being forced to save a world will do that to you. Being chucked back in time we see most of our characters except there a few *cough* years younger. I loved that Alex was really self aware that she could mess with the future and how all the events unraveled. 

I adore good turned bad and this book had it in spades, good turned bad back story, bad turned good turned bad turned self sacrificing, just wowza and how complex all these characters are and how invested I was at there individual stories. 

THE PLOT AND REVEALS ARE ALSO MINDBLOWINGLY WOWZA AND I JUST LOVE LOVE LOVE

Did I mention that there's a Dragon and he's a snarky teenager? Because yes there is that. Also training, I just love characters learning how to fight and being knocked on their ass until they get it right. 

I can't wait for the next book and more adventures with Alex <3

Cover Art:
This is my favourite cover so far! It is so gorgeous and just makes me want to go buy a copy for myself! Which I will do eventually! But this cover is gorgeous! The colours, the floating islands & a fucking DRAGON!! Or should I say Draekon???? I can't wait to get my hands on the whole set as they are all so gorgeous and I'm so keen to see what the cover of Graevale!

Writing: 
I still love the easy flow that these books have! The world building in these books is absolutely amazing and even though it is a high fantasy complex world I found it really well explained and was easy to keep up with. I'm never confused about these books as everything is always explained so well and each book rounds off nicely so that at the end you aren't sitting with so many questions you don't even know what to feel. I really love the writing of this book for that reason as there is nothing worse than finishing a book and being more confused than when you started. 

In this one, I did really enjoy the incorporation of the Meyarin language in it was really interesting! I also really enjoyed that all of the Meyarin words were translated or, if they couldn't be translated into English, there meaning it was explained! 

I also am still enjoying the very little romance in this series. There is a romance of sorts that plays out in this book but it was directly related to the plot but it wasn't really a romance as it was completely one sided. Don't worry that isn't actually a spoiler as it's straight out obvious if you know the characters or the plot of the previous books. 

Plot:
This book is definitely my favourite so far! There is so much that happens in this book and I can't even begin to explain why I love this so much, it's just so epic and so unexpected! But just know there is time travel, Dragons, new friendships and so many damn twists and turns that I'm still kinda in shock. 

Characters:
Okay, so there really isn't much I can say about the characters in the book without giving away part of the plot, so if you don't want spoilers then please skip to the 'overall' section. 

I love Alex, she is such a badass female character that is just trying to do the right thing and save as many people as she can! Her development in this book was really important as we see her interact with the past version of her friends and enemies and allow herself to realise the reasons those people are the way they are in the time she knows. 

It was fun meeting Roka, Kyia, Zain, King Astophe & Queen Niida again! It was fun watching Roka & Kia bicker when you knew how they would turn out in the end. I also really enjoyed just seeing everyone's back story, even if it was only a couple weeks of it. Learning about them and how they developed into the people we know was really interesting. 

I also really enjoyed Niyx as a character, he was so passionate and caring in this book and learning the real him and the truth about him was awesome. I'm so keen to see what happens with him in the next book thanks to that abrupt twist we had right at the end there after thinking again that he really was the bad guy. 

Aven, this is a hard one to talk about as you know in your head the entire time what he is going to become but you can't help to kinda like and sympathise with him in this book. But you are still sitting there waiting for whatever it is to click and for all hell to break loose. 

The last character I want to talk about is actually our loveable teenage Draekon, Xiraxus. I loved Xira, he was so fun and really showed sometimes that he is in fact only a teenager but also when he needed to be he was serious and caring. I think Xira is my new favourite character and I really hope we see more of him and Draekons in general in the last book. 

Overall:
I love this book and this series! Definitely a new favourite series! The high fantasy world created in these books is just amazing, the characters are everything and the plot is just straight out epic. I can't wait for book 4, Graevale to release!
