About this book
What it feels like to read.
A poor farm boy finds a polished blue stone in the forest and hopes it can help feed his family through winter. The object is not a stone. It hatches, binding him to a young dragon and pulling him into a conflict older than the empire ruling his home. Guided by an aging storyteller and carrying an inherited sword, he must leave ordinary life before he has learned what his new role requires. The novel follows a classic coming-of-age quest through wilderness, pursuit, magic, and the remnants of a fallen order. Its pleasures are direct: a growing bond between rider and dragon, a large map opening one dangerous road at a time, and a young lead discovering that destiny is mostly responsibility arriving before preparation.
