"One of fantasy’s best series." —Booklist, starred review
Game of Thrones meets Fourth Wing in a debut young adult fantasy that's full of rivalry, romance . . . and dragons.
Annie and Lee were just children when a brutal revolution changed their world, giving everyone—even the lowborn—a chance to test into the governing class of dragonriders.
Now they are both rising stars in the new regime, despite backgrounds that couldn't be more different. Annie's lowborn family was executed by dragonfire, while Lee's aristocratic family was murdered by revolutionaries. Growing up in the same orphanage forged their friendship, and seven years of training have made them rivals for the top position in the dragonriding fleet.
But everything changes when survivors from the old regime surface, bent on reclaiming the city.
With war on the horizon and his relationship with Annie changing fast, Lee must choose to kill the only family he has left or to betray everything he's come to believe in. And Annie must decide whether to protect the boy she loves . . . or step up to be the champion her city needs.
From debut author Rosaria Munda comes a gripping adventure that calls into question which matters most: the family you were born into, or the one you've chosen.

“If you read Fourth Wing and wished it was better, this is the book for you! The marketing of this book likens it to Fourth Wing, and that is such a disservice to this book. This story is BY FAR better than Fourth Wing ever was! The world building is phenomenal, the characters are multilayered, and there is political intrigue! If I could liken this book to something, I would say it's more like the tale of Anastasia Romanov vs the Bolsheviks with dragons! It starts off a bit bland, in that I thought the story was going to follow teens becoming dragon riders, but very quickly the story and its world building becomes far more complicated than that. Put down Fourth Wing and pimp out this story instead!”

“Revolusi brutal yang menggulingkan Penguasa Naga telah membuat Annie dan Lee menjadi yatim piatu. Namun membawa harapan baru bagi kota mereka. Kini setiap orang, bahkan rakyat biasa, bisa mendapatkan kekayaan, pendidikan dan mengikuti ujian untuk menjadi penunggang naga.
Lee terlahir sebagai bangsawan namun harus menyembunyikan identitasnya. Dengan prestasinya, Lee menjadi bintang yang sedang naik daun justru dibawah rezim yang telah membantai keluarganya. Annie yang mantan budak, juga salah satu penunggang naga terbaik. Setelah bersahabat selama tujuh tahun, Annie dan Lee bersaing untuk mendapatkan posisi di armada kota.
Semua penunggang naga sudah dilatih dan dipersiapkan untuk penjaga kota mereka di masa depan. Namun tidak pernah menyangka keluarga dari Penguasa Naga yang bertahan hidup dari revolusi, muncul dengan naga mereka, untuk merebut kembali kota mereka.
Buku ini sungguh mengejutkanku. Dinamika hubungan Lee dan Annie awalnya bahkan bukan romantis, tapi cinta platonik. Trope friends-to-lovers bukan trope favoritku, namun Rosaria menulis trope ini dengan sangat indah. Gaya menulisnya sungguh membuatku seperti bisa merasakan semua emosi Lee dan Annie.”
