For fans of Abigail Owen and Samantha Shannon comes a breathtaking, energetic novel where the only way to defeat a dragon is to outsmart it âŠ
Most dragontongues donât live long enough to learn from their mistakes. Lotte Meer is luckier than most, surviving long enough to communicate with the fierce, sullen, and temperamental dragons who are not above enjoying a human as a light snack. And she has the scars to prove it.
Now a massive, foul-tempered dragon has taken over the town of Morwassen's Pass, taking the citizens hostage. As long as they bring him their gold and treasure, he wonât reduce their city to a smoking heap of ash and death. Only, the treasure is running out and Lotteâwith the help
of sharp-tongued, unbelievably cute Maryse Basvaanâis their last and only hope.
But this dragon is more cunningâand more cruelâthan any other. Not only is he holding Lotteâs estranged mom captive, but he has a taste for betrayal ⊠and somehow heâs stricken some kind of secret deal with the girl whoâs already gone and stolen Lotteâs heart.
Lotte wonât fail. She canât.Because if she does ⊠everyone dies.
