Arthur Oakes is a reader, a dreamer, and a student at Rackham College,
Maine, renowned for its frosty winters, exceptional library, and
beautiful buildings. But his idyll—and burgeoning romance with Gwen
Underfoot—is shattered when a local drug dealer and her partner corner
him into one of the worst crimes he can imagine: stealing rare books
from the college library.
Trapped and desperate, Arthur turns to his closest friends for comfort
and help. Together they dream up a wild, fantastical scheme to free
Arthur from the cruel trap in which he finds himself. Wealthy,
irrepressible Colin Wren suggests using the unnerving Crane journal
(bound in the skin of its author) to summon a dragon to do their
bidding. The others—brave, beautiful Alison Shiner; the battling twins
Donna and Donovan McBride; and brainy, bold Gwen—don’t hesitate to join
Colin in an effort to smash reality and bring a creature of the
impossible into our world.
But there’s nothing simple about dealing with dragons, and their pact
to save Arthur becomes a terrifying bargain in which the six must
choose a new sacrifice for King Sorrow every year—or become his next
meal.
