Description
"A riveting saga that intertwines elements of fantasy and science fiction . . . [The] tightly plotted, adventurous trilogy constitutes superb storytelling." —Publishers Weekly
Teens dragon master Jakkin and beloved healer-in-training Akki hide in mountain cave network beside Heart's Blood warm hatchlings, exchanging mind-picture "sendings." But who could leave a huge pile of stripped dragon bones neatly interwoven? The monstrous secret is bloodier than they could imagine. Can they save anyone, even sacrificing themselves?
"An ambitious and rewarding work of speculative fiction." —School Library Journal
"The author combines well-wrought dragon lore with exciting adventure and good characterization." —Booklist
"A brilliantly imagined planetary complex where the evils of our own urban society can be scrutinized in a serious but exciting tale about a legendary species and about young people who have learned to accept its right to peaceful co-existence." —Growing Point
"Engrossing and engaging." —Kirkus Reviews
