Book description
Lyrical, imaginative, and wholly original, this New York Times bestseller with 8 starred reviews is not to be missed. Rachel Hartman's award-winning debut will have you looking at dragons as you've never imagined them before... Seraphina is a half-dragon, descended from a dragon mother who took human form and a father who has no particular fondness for Seraphina's kind. Not that anyone else does either. Hers is a world where dragons and humans live and work side by side--but below the surface, tensions and hostilities are on the rise. Seraphina guards her true self with all of her being, but when a member of the royal family is brutally murdered, she's suddenly thrust into the spotlight, drawn into the investigation alongside the dangerously perceptive Prince Lucian. As the two uncover a sinister plot to destroy the wavering peace of the kingdom, Seraphina's struggle to protect her secret becomes increasingly difficult . . . and its discovery could mean her very life. "Will appeal to both fans of Christopher Paolini's Eragon series and Robin McKinley's The Hero and the Crown."--Entertainment Weekly "[A] lush, intricately plotted fantasy."--The Washington Post "Beautifully written. Some of the most interesting dragons I've read."--Christopher Paolini, New York Times bestselling author of Eragon Meet Seraphina's sister, Tess, in Rachel Hartman's brand new fantasy adventure, Tess of the Road.
In a world where dragons and humans coexist and dragons can assume human form, Seraphina, whose mother died giving birth to her, grapples with her own identity while she struggles to accept and develop her musical talents.
