In this compelling and thought-provoking fantasy set in the world of The Two Princesses of Bamarre, Newbery Honor-winning author Gail Carson Levine introduces a spirited heroine who must overcome deeply rooted prejudice—including her own—to heal her broken country.
Peregrine strives to live up to the ideal of her people, the Latki—and to impress her parents: affectionate Lord Tove, who despises only the Bamarre, and stern Lady Klausine. Perry runs the fastest, speaks her mind, and doesn’t give much thought to the castle’s Bamarre servants, whom she knows to be weak and cowardly.
But just as she’s about to join her father on the front lines, she is visited by the fairy Halina, who reveals that Perry isn’t Latki-born. She is Bamarre. The fairy issues a daunting challenge: against the Lakti power, Perry must free her people from tyranny.
Sirin, Allie, and Joss have joined forces with the legendary silver dragon Lysander, the only creature capable of opening portals
between the two worlds. But the powerful Lennix clan is following the children's every move and will stop at nothing to capture
Lysander. After generations of plotting, the Lennixes-and their bloodthirsty dragon allies, the Raptors-are terrifyingly close to
establishing a brutal dragon regime on Earth, just like they did centuries ago.
Now, it's up to Allie, Joss, and Sirin to protect Lysander while searching for a secret source of lost dragon magic, the only force
powerful enough to stop the Raptor. But when their search takes them to one of the largest cities on Earth, the new friends must
decide what's more important: finding the missing treasure or guarding the most important secret in the world-that dragons have
returned to Earth. . . and not all of them have good intentions.
