Dragonkeeper 1

Slave girl's epic journey with ageing dragon.

If you have a soft spot for tales of courage intertwined with the rich tapestry of Ancient China, "Dragonkeeper 1" could be an adventure that captivates you. It's about finding your worth and strength in the most unlikely circumstances. Its magic lies not just in the dragon lore, but in the young girl's transformative journey. You might find yourself rooting for her from the very first page as she defies her life of servitude to protect something greater than herself.

Description

The first part of the internationally award-winning Dragonkeeper series. Ancient China, Han Dynasty. A slave girl saves the life of an ageing dragon and escapes her brutal master. Pursued by a ruthless dragon hunter, the girl and the dragon begin an epic journey across China. They carry with them a mysterious stone that must be protected. Dragonkeeper is the story of a young girl who believes she is not worthy even of a name but finds within herself the strength and courage to make this perilous journey – and do what must be done.
