If Rain weren’t a girl, she would be respected as a Neshu
combat master. Instead, her gender dooms her to a
colorless future. When an army of nomads invades her
kingdom, and a draft forces every household to send one
man to fight, Rain takes her chance to seize the life she
wants. Knowing she’ll be killed if she’s discovered, Rain
purchases powder made from dragon magic that enables her
to disguise herself as a boy. Then she hurries to the war
camps, where she excels in her training—and wrestles with
the voice that has taken shape inside her head. The voice
of a dragon she never truly believed existed. As war looms and Rain is enlisted into an elite, secret
unit tasked with rescuing the High King, she begins to
realize this dragon tincture may hold the key to her
kingdom’s victory. For the dragons that once guarded her
land have slumbered for centuries . . . and someone must
awaken them to fight once more.
