We survived the land of the Witch’s Reign, that much is true. But our arrival home is far from welcome. My idiot brother has taken it upon himself to ride off in search of a mythical healer, someone who might help him walk again. Assuming she doesn’t eat him first. Because she’s a dragon and happens to reside in the deepest reaches of the Dragon’s Ground. Like I said, idiot.I’d go after him … go after him myself, but his leave-taking is not the only problem I face. My mentor has forbidden me to leave the safety of the Stockyards. Her reasoning?
That I am too weak to weather the coming storms.
With my pride wounded in more ways than one, I must gather the few allies’ I have left. My ex-husband’s new girlfriend at the top of the list and a goat bleating Satyr.
FML.
If I’m lucky I’ll find a small dragon and a Jinn whose blue eyes still haunt my dreams along the way.
Buckle up, buttercup, this ride is about to take a seriously unforeseen twist.

Once again the foul mouthed Zam and her friends are at it again. This book is amazing and Shannon has done a great job. I loved every minute of this book. Zam, Lila and Maks are becoming to be my favorite people. I almost felt like I was fighting the battles right beside them. That’s how good it is. When you sit down to read this book make sure there is no one around because once you start this book you won’t stop until it’s done!!!!
I love all of Shannon Mayers books. Once again, I found myself sucked into a whirlwind story where the action never ceased. The story is so much fun, full of magic and creative imagery. We see more character development, and find more things to love about Zam and her friends. Stayed up all night to finish, and cannot wait to see what happens in the next installment of this amazing series! it really is a great read!
AMAZING! Once again Shannon Mayer delivers! I laughed, I cried and I was left impatiently waiting for the next book! The heroine, Zam, is snarky, funny, loyal to a fault and has a heart bigger than most. She makes you want to be her! Her companions Lila and Mak have their own sass and humor as well. I do not want to give away any of the story, just know, once you start it reading- you won’t stop! Awesome story line, great characters and fantastic writing!
Dragon’s Ground is the second book in the desert cursed series and it’s seriously binge worthy. It picks up right after Witch’s Reign, Zam has returned back to the stockyards to find her brother has left to find a healer on his on and in his condition that just might mean his death if she can’t get to him first, but it won’t be that easy. Setting off to find her brother and hopefully stop a powerful gem from landing in the wrong hands, Zam is met with obstacles and victories as she makes new enemies and reunites with those she has come to call family. As I read page after page, so engulfed in this amazing adventure, I hit the last page and yelled NOOOOOOO!!!! I was not ready for it to end, you won’t be either!
Shannonn Mayer is one of my favorite authors, and this current series does not disappoint! It’s definitely a must-read!
This author is fast becoming one of my absolute favorites, and this book just showcases why. We’ve already gotten to know Zam, Lila, and Maks in the first book. In this second book, we learn more about why they are who they are, how they got there, and more about their past. And what revelations they are! I really can’t say too much as I don’t want to spoil either book. This book was full of great action and great characters that I am so enjoying getting to know. Ms. Mayer makes the characters so real, sometimes I feel like talking to them to get them to understand what they are doing wrong. Or yelling at them, as the case may be! There were so many moments that were sad, funny, surprising, and that kept me guessing as the author is so very talented. I do admit to crying at the end because I was hoping that something wouldn’t happen, or at least not right away, but alas my hopes were crushed. If you read the first one, you will definitely love this one. If you haven’t even started, do so today; it’s a great series!! Highly recommend! I was provided a complimentary copy of the e-book which I reviewed voluntarily.
Could say so much as I was put under a spell. The story continued where the last one left following the misadventures of Zamira and her pride. Loved reading the little tokens of past characters from the other series as they had captured my heart. Full of adventure, magic and so much more. Was not able to put the book down as it was so descriptive. Can’t wait to read the next one when it comes out.
Shannon Mayer is a wonderful writer, although a bit salty at times. That is the ONLY potential negative for new readers. The Desert Cursed Series is as good if not better than her previous series, and I have loved them all. Zam and Lila seem to find themselves a bit more in Dragon’s Ground. They are accepting themselves and their destinies with less fear. Laughter and tears abound in this book. The created world is impactful and draws one in completely. Questions are answered and more are generated in this second of the series. Spoilers are so hard to avoid because the story wants to be discussed at length. I can’t wait for the next part.
Can’t get enough of the worlds and characters that Shannon Mayer has created! Zamira truly has a fighter heart and looks out for anyone that needs help. Even if it will kill her. Love watching her find her strengths and all her friends along the journey to freedom.
