With the aid of a couple friends and in competition with her older brother, she faces five bizarre dragons: The River Lurker, The Great Horned Wardragon, The Tenebrous Subterwyrm, The Grand Drill-Drake, and The Heartmonger.Rising up in the world on a tide of blood, Azea contends with the obligations of fame and the intrigues of those who think they can use dragons to further their own ends. The dragons wield terror, temptation, and nihilism; they prey upon both people and their vulnerabilities, and Azea is strained to her limit to survive both them and her own struggle for a place in the world.As she comes closer to learning the secret connection between people and dragons, she is left with increasing self doubt about her role and the failures of human nature. Will she succeed as a dragonslayer? Or will she become consumed by the evils the dragons represent?
