A powerful enemy. A treacherous king. A dragon hatchling.

Armaila is desperate to free her mother from the royal dungeon. With the last known dragon egg in her possession, given to her by a mysterious friend of her mother, she must journey to Erithor's capital without drawing attention to herself.

When the egg hatches, Armaila is forced to swear her fealty to King Theodore, a man said to wear a crown of blood. She begins her training as a dragon rider, but soon learns that serving her king requires betraying her kingdom.
