- Scale of the Dragon is the first episode of the series Marked by the Dragon.
Blurb:
Her key to freedom is also her torment.
Mina is an outcast. A childhood accident left her scarred and with a curse that her master exploits to hunt dragons for sport.
She wants freedom, from both her master and the curse, but unless the right dragon is killed, she’ll be a bondservant for the rest of her days.
With Mina’s uncanny ability and her master’s magical strength, the beast responsible for her misery will fall … even if she has to take matters into her own hands.
Written by Richard Fierce (me!)

Oh dear! I stumbled upon this book not realizing how new it was and now I groan in despair knowing that I'll have to wait till the next book is out. I am frantically googling the heck out of this series. Can't wait for the second audio book!! This type of narration is hard to come by so I doubt I will be able to listen to anyone else for a while now. A bazillion thumbs up!
Patience is a virtue, haha! Book 2 will be coming in the next few weeks. I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Right I’m waiting patiently for this work of art..
OMG!!! Let's all leave this BRILLIANT mind alone so he can stay busy writing..... I'm dying for the next book over here!!!! OUTSTANDING work Sir! Going listen to your other works on my Audible account. Thank you 😊
@@roxannesamples-brown4256 Oh wow, thank you for the compliments! Book 2 will be available on here August 5th. I'm writing book 3 now, so it should be available early September. You can watch the second Legends, Lore, and More video to hear more about the progress, etc. And thank you for checking out my books on Audible!
@@roxannesamples-brown4256 he has a couple other series to read wile your waiting. There really well done.
I am an old blind sick woman and I appreciate these audiobooks so much. It is the height of my day to hear these well-written and well narrated audiobooks. Thank you for downloading this one. I hope I get to hear the rest of the series.
I'm glad you're enjoying them so much! Book 2 is already up, and book 3 will be coming early September.
@@RichardFierceWrites oh good! just in time for my 73rd birthday
@@patriciadepaula3667 Awesome! It'll be the perfect gift! 🙂
@@RichardFierceWrites I know it's labor day and I know this is going to sound really pushy but it's early September and I'm really excited. I don't want a crook before the audio book comes out.
@@patriciadepaula3667 Book 3 went up today. 🙂
I thoroughly enjoyed Dragon Riders of Osnen, but the Marked By The Dragon series is fantastic! The narrator is wonderful, the story captivated my attention, and the writing was excellent. Thank you for sharing these stories with us! Kudos 😁
Thanks! I'm happy to hear that. I went in a very different direction with the Marked by the Dragon series, and I like how the story is going. 2 and 3 are up and I'm working on the 4th one now.
I'm a bit of an insomniac, audio books help in that respect. I've enjoyed quite a few of your works Mr. Pierce. Positively delightful and engrossing. I'm normally a sci fi reader. Fantasy is a newer genre for me, I can see I've missed much in that respect. Thank you sir for your gift!👍🤝
Thank you for the kind words! And welcome to the fantasy side of literature. I'm glad to hear you enjoy my stories. 🙂
I am mature and BBC radio thrillers were my fav. This narrator is great. Not my kind of book but I am still listening 🦋
Kevin has a great voice, so I can see why you're still listening. 🙂
♨️I was in such a reading slump & I stumbled onto this book it was so good & the narrator is so talented & engaging I was entranced. Thank you for posting this!!!
Oh wow, thank you for the compliment! I'm glad you liked it. Hopefully you get out of the reading slump soon!
@@RichardFierceWrites Your writing is so poignant & clear and my goodness the world building is really good I was so sad when it ended but so happy to have been un -slumped for at least 2 hrs lol .
@@308KingsRoad Well I'm happy I momentarily took you out of the slump! The second book will be up soon (few weeks). 🙂

Thoroughly enjoyable light read. Characters are interesting, story grabs your interest early and holds it. Looking forward to reading the entire series.
I'm glad you liked it!
Thoroughly enjoying your books. Really appreciate the free audios. I binged the Osnen series and have just started on these. Thanks!
Awesome, I'm glad you like them! There are currently 4 in this series, with a 5th coming soon. Hopefully by the end of July.
Great storytelling! At the start I thought the plot to be a little naive, but it went on very well and it took all my attention. I cannot wait to continue with the story. If you will publish the books, I will surely buy them. Congratulations! - Keep up with the good work. The Narrator was awesome! I have always loved to read to my child, and acting out the voices of the characters in the story. He does a very good job. A wonderful voice that does not make you drowsy; keeping you engaged into the plot. A real pro! Thank you both for letting us enjoy this wonderful tale!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you liked the story. Book 2 is up and book 3 is coming in September. They are published and available in ebook, print, and of course, audio. 🙂
The writing flows easily. Looking forward to the sequel.
I'm glad you liked it!
Ahhh ,while I'm waiting for book5 of the dragon riders series , I started listening into this book,new series ( I hope ) got the same addicted,love your writing,and this narrator is brilliant brings the characters to life...loving it...
Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying them all. 🙂
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS, AN ENGAGING PIECE AND I LOOK FORWARD TO READING AND LISTENING TO MORE FROM YOU
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
The book was awesome, can’t wait for Call of the Dragon!
I'm glad you think so! It's coming soon, I promise!
Was interested from start to finish. Can not wait to here more of the plot
I'm glad you liked it!
Came up by accident and I love it so far!!!
Awesome, I'm glad to hear that! Welcome aboard! 🙂
This is a beautifully written book, the story is captivating and never a dull moment, love it.
Thank you!
@@RichardFierceWrites No! Thank you for making such a brilliant work, which has helped me escape this world.
@@crateyup6016 I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. Book 2 is also up, and the third one is coming early September.
@@RichardFierceWrites Can't wait for them
Great book & love the guy reading it. Together they are just amazing. First book by this author & I'm beyond hooked. Can't wait to dig into all of them. Thank you👍👍👍👍💝💝💝💝💕💕
Awesome, I'm glad you enjoyed it! There are 3 more in this series and I have a few other series on here as well. Plenty to escape into!
😊😊
For me, it's only as good as the Reader, and you, dear Reader, made this completely enjoyable. I look forward to your next 'read'.
For sure! Kevin did a fantastic job!
After listening to both narrators I enjoy Kevin Green more. He does his characters well you can really distinguish one character from another. He also brings out the emotions of the characters. Your other series is so good I really like it, but I think it could have used a better narrator. Thanks again for giving us a chance to enjoy your books.
Thanks! I'm glad you like my stories! 🙂
Still, I like to listen to the great story. This is a very good sign for me to listen to book two.
Book 2 is up. 🙂 Enjoy!
Interesting that she hates the dragons more than her human master or the family who sold her. Poor dragon
She blames the dragon for all her problems, but she just might awaken from her hatred. 🙂
@@RichardFierceWrites i can't wait.
@@salwaaj1356 Book 2 went up today.
@@RichardFierceWrites thank you ! #fromTunisia
I know, right? Especially since that dragon had nothing to do with what happened to her. It didn't push her or anything. She fell into an old nest. But it does show how an event can skew a person's thinking and reasoning to justify strong, negative emotions.
This was fantastic! I'll be diving into the second book tomorrow :)
Thank you! 🙂
Thank you for posting your work. I really enjoyed this piece.
You're welcome! Thanks for listening! 🙂
The story is fantastic. As an Asian, the Red Dragon shall i pray be hunted for the peace of East Asia..
Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it!
Great, exciting beginning to this set.
Thanks again Richard. B
You're welcome!
Been writing an album and needed a bunch of fantasy books to help me create, came by this totally randomly! Thank you!!!
An album? That's so cool! Thanks for listening!
Thank you I needed a amazing story to listen to. You have given a great gift to your listeners.
You're welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
oh my god. i listen to this every night it is absolutely amazing!!!
Thank you! I'm glad you like it!
Fantastic!!! I loved this book! So good and well narrated too! 😊😊😊
@@SatumainenOlento Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
Fantastic book! When the book ended my mouth literally fell open what a cliffhanger!
I'm glad you liked it!
I very much enjoyed this book and look forward to more! Soon I hope...
More for sure! The second one is coming soon!
Great book left me wanting more.
I like all the characters. Gave just enough info to make them interesting but not too much. Makes you are eager to know more about them.
Simple, building the world through the words and thoughts of the characters. Great writing style! Just how I like it!!
Awesome, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
Awesome!!! I love it! And I'm so glad there are more books in this series available!
I'm glad you like it! 🙂
Well, and i thoroughly enjoyed this book. I love dragons and was a little miffed at how they were being portrayed here, but I'm enjoy this different viewpoint of the misunderstanding Mina has towards dragonkind. each of the main characters is very well drawn out and i like them all Mina, Cayden and Thayus. i even like the Lord (no idea how to spell that name) and Captain edwards. Mr. Fierce is fast becoming one of my favorite fantasy/sci fi authors.
also, I really enjoyed the narrator, Mr. Green. Loved the british accent and distinguished tone of voice. hopefully, he's reading the entire series.
Oh, wow! Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. Kevin is narraring the entire series. Book 2 and 3 are up and I'm working on finishing book 4 now.
@@RichardFierceWritesExcellent! Book 2 is on my "immediate to read" list. wow, so glad to hear you're working on book 4. You are definitely prolific , a wonderful trait in a favorite author. blessings.
@@40bpaula Thanks! And I'm honored to be a new favorite of yours!
Marked by the Dragon ,well done Sir a stupendous read, what one might call addictive can we please have some more.
Thank you, David! I appreciate the kind words. The second one is coming August 5th!
Brilliant. Now Book 2.
I'm glad you liked it!
Loved it! I'm hooked! Must have more lol story is great i cant wait to see what happens next...loved the narrator, especially when he does the dragon 🐉 voices
Book 2 is up and book 3 is coming this month!
One of my favorite audiobooks, I love Darth bane it's star wars before the movies if you haven't heard it go after this and check it out
Thanks for listening! I just looked up the books you mentioned. Interesting!
How good is this! Thank You so much for posting this, it says a lot of you as a person. X
I'm glad you like it! I've got a number of other books on here, too, so there's plenty to listen to. 🙂
Thank you I really enjoyed this story. Looking forward to the next. This narrator is really good. I subscribed as…well…. I like your stories they are interesting a bit of the underworld with the ferryman in the other stories.. I’m rooting that the girl changes how she feels about dragons and maybe soul bonds like the other books.. but whichever way it goes…. I like it. You are really good at storytelling thank you.
I'm glad you like them. Comments like yours make my day, so thank you very much! And no spoilers from me on this one, but ... you never know. 🙂
Enjoyable book, look forward to continuation of the story. Not heard of you before, so now I am going to see what else you have written. Thank you
I'm glad you liked it! You can see all of my books on my website at richardfierce.com.
Good story and a great reading .....thankyou for the upload.
Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
What an incredible story. Love your work. Please post new book ASAP.
Thank you for the kind words! New books will be up soon. I appreciate your patience!
I had to skip the first book, the narration was so horrible. I was so pleased to find this one had a new voice. Much more enjoyable, now that I can immerse myself into the story instead of clawing my ears off.
Was it Andrew's Irish accent? People either love it or hate it, lol. Thanks for listening!
Really liked your book. Good plot, Nice character development.eagerly waiting the whole series. (hoping u will turn it into one)
I'm glad you liked it. It is a series, and book 2 will be coming in the next few weeks. 🙂

Hopefully it wasn't too confusing listening that way. All 3 are up now, and I'm writing the 4th one now. 🙂
@@RichardFierceWrites Great to hear. Please keep a pace that uphold that quality. There has been too many examples of the curve of quality going negative with haste. You have a special gift with your story, with images, people and not at least the way it is all done sound vice. I am so glad a stumbled over this another sleep deprived night.I know I must go back and listen to some of number 2 again. I dosed of for a bit before I heard what an amazing background noise I had found. Thank you again! 💌

@@RichardFierceWrites great cant wait, need to know what happens
A lucky find. For once I'm suggested an interesting one by the algorithm.
Yay algorithm! Thanks for listening! 🙂
This book kind of reminds me of any old series of books that started with "The Runelords".
Interesting! I've actually not heard of that one before. I'll have to check it out.
@@RichardFierceWrites just the Magic Rune system that they use. they didn't have dragons or anything
@@RichardFierceWrites thank you for such a great narration by the way
@@ryudragonlord1 Kevin did an amazing job, for sure!
Lovely writing.
Thank you!
Thanks Richard!
You're welcome!
Another adventure...
One of many!
Always loved dragons & their stories - these seem henpecked so what will she find -
You'll see as the story continues to unfold. 🙂
Good story.
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
When are you going to come out with the next book?
2 and 3 are already up here on UA-cam. I'm working on the 4th book now and only have a few chapters left to write, then it'll be edited and sent to Kevin for narration. 🙂
Enjoying your books. Heads up at the end it says the next book is call of the dragon but the title of that says book 3
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying them! And yeah, the second one originally was going to be Call of the Dragon, but the title changed after the first one was recorded. 😬
Ayoooo new audibook 😁😁😁
Yep! It's the first of a brand new series I just launched. 🙂
What a wonderful story 😊
Thank you!
2:36:06 even after realising dragons can speak, , she does not seem to grasp she helped murder sentient beings. I m expecting a good amout of remorse, else i'll be dissapointed.
Hatred can really blind people to their own actions, but you'll see!
Hey listeners, what is the home of the dragon called? mysa? meisir? myser? maysir? I can't catch it in the dictionary.
It's mesa. 🙂
So which one is next?
Egg of the Dragon is book 2.
Man, I don't know how to feel about love in first sights. I think it's unnecessary on stories a sense of camaraderie.
Keep going because it's not what you think. :)
Dear Richard, thanks for recommending this. I already feel better and relaxed :) Good choice regarding the narrator. Not Irish this time but English +/-Midlands-this time I did my research prior to posting a comment LOL! So far, the story/narration has been right down my alley. I'll drop more comments when I've got something more substantial to say :D Take care and catch you soon.
You're welcome! 🙂
@@RichardFierceWrites Hello Richard, it took a while to finish this book but as they say life got in the way. However, this story was wonderful, beautiful even. I very much enjoyed it and Kevin E Green's narration added various layers to the tale. A really good match :) Now I am looking forward to listening to the 2nd book. :) Thank you so much for sharing! Also, I wish you a great weekend, Richard :)
@@ArtBlade I'm glad you enjoyed this one. This series was a labor of love because I going through some burnout after I finished the first one, but it's been highly regarded by people. I think my personal adversity helped make the story even better.
I'm at a convention this weekend selling books, so I'm having a wonderful time. 🙂
@@RichardFierceWrites I hope you had a great time at that convention :) I'm on book 2 but not very far yet. However, it's been really good so far. And as luck would have it I was presented with an opportunity to promote your Marked by the Dragon series during another author's live stream who asked what we were currently reading. Of course I too mentioned your name as the author of this series. I didn't want to overdo it so I didn't post a link to your channel but anyone who's checking will certainly find it. Thought this would put a smile on your face :)
@@ArtBlade That's awesome. I appreciate the shout out! And I'm glad you're still enjoying this series, too. 🙂
That dragon is smiling.
Maybe ... but only because he's about to end the life of his enemy!
