“The action in this series opener is nonstop and violent . . . a good bet for military sf and fantasy fans.”—Booklist
Hal Kailas is a runaway and a pauper, living hand to mouth in a kingdom where peace is by no means certain. But Hal has a dream. In his younger days, he had the breathtaking experience of bonding with a young dragon, and the memory of the beast’s great strength and power consumes his every thought.
When war does come to the kingdom, the most daring and ruthless of men soar into battle on the backs of such fearsome creatures—monstrous weapons of war that rule the sky. Few men are strong enough to bend a dragon’s will to their own, but Hal has reason to think he may be one—and in time, he will prove that he is the greatest dragonmaster of them all.
“Fans of military fantasy and dragon lore should enjoy this fantasy adventure.”—Library Journal
