An ALA Best Book for Young Adults
Jakkin now has everything he’s ever wanted—the rank of freeman, a string of victories in the dragon pits, and the companionship of his dragon, Heart’s Blood. Everything, that is, except for his beloved Akki, who vanished a year ago.
To find her, Jakkin must become a rebel spy. He will risk everything he holds dear—Heart’s Blood, her hatchlings, even his hard-won freedom—and join in a game fiercer than any dragon pit match, a game he’ll lose no matter how well he plays.
“Eloquent . . . rich in symbolism.” —The Horn Book
