Overview
Impossible Creatures meets Greenwild in a new series from critically acclaimed author Ellen Oh!
Life is hard for Duri and her family. Her mama is sick with the blood plague and her papa struggles to find work, taking whatever jobs he can find. Then one day the crown prince’s guards break down the door, ransack their home, and arrest Papa, along with others throughout the kingdom. The prince has been robbed and will stop at nothing to get back what’s his. The last thing Papa says to Duri is to help their family—all of them. Duri has no idea what that means.
When a boy named Rio arrives that afternoon looking for Papa, Duri realizes this is who she is supposed to help. Rio explains that he hired Papa to help transport some goods to a buyer in another land. The money would be life changing for Duri’s family, so she finds herself agreeing to take Rio. Only Duri didn’t realize that the goods were stolen dragon eggs. Eggs that belong to the prince and his dragon army.
Unable to refuse, Duri sets off with Rio. But soon they are being hunted by the deadly dragonkeepers and an entire empire. As Rio and Duri continue the dangerous journey, Duri starts to question whether dragons can truly belong to anyone or if they should be free. But can one girl stand up to an all-powerful prince?
