Description

The war between dragons and humans is over, but the danger is just beginning. Discover the legend of orphan Henry Haddow in this exhilarating new middle-grade fantasy series.

Neither humans nor dragons may enter the lands of the other.

Ever since he was orphaned in the Dragon War, thirteen-year-old Henry Haddow has lived with the dogs in the castle's kennels and that's where he's expected to stay. But Henry dreams of becoming a knight.

His one chance is to compete for a coveted novice spot in the Twilight Tournament, and when he discovers a magical sword that will grant him a single wish, he knows he can win. That is, until he accidentally uses the magical sword in a chance encounter with a dragon named Snare, and it transforms her into a teenage girl.

Henry is horrified. Snare, now trapped in a human body, is furious. And if anyone finds out what has happened, the war between dragons and humans will end the world
