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.
Karl Kielblock het verskeie boeke geskryf, waaronder die Lafras
Cuyper-reeks baie bekend is en wyd versamel word. Dit handel oor
seeavonture in diens van twee oorlogvoerende moondhede vroeg in die
19de eeu. Hierdie is die vyfde boek in die reeks. Die boeke is
propvol opwinding, spanning en avontuur! Lafras Cuyper word
persoonlik deur Napoleon gevra om Franse skipbreukelinge op die
eilandjie Abbe te gaan red. Hy staan nie terug vir die
lewensgevaarlike uitdaging nie en besef dat deeglike beplanning en
betroubare bemanning die sleutel tot sukses is. Sal hy die Engelse
om die bos kan lei en die skipbreukelinge red? Of sal hy vir
Napoleon teleurstel? Die verhaal van Lafras Cuyper is op feite
gebaseer.
