Lanen Kaeler has spent her life being told just how wrongheaded and foolish she is by her entire family. When Lanen's father dies, she chooses to leave her abusive relatives and search out the great dragons she has always dreamed of, though she knows what she seeks may not be real. But those who hold the true power know that prophecies have been told of Lanen Kaelar since before her birth. They fear the destiny she may fulfill, the mysteries she may unravel -- and the strange and terrifying love she may find on the legendary Dragon Isle.
"Not since Elizabeth Moon's valiant Pak has a heroine of such status, physical and moral, strode onto the stage of fantasy. This is a book to be read and shelved for a second or third visit in the future -- which is the best quality test any reader can devise."
ANDRE NORTON "A strong new voice."
JANE YOLEN
"If you are one of those aspiring souls who fly with dragons in their dreams, this book is for you!"
