"Un dragón sin su jinete es una tragedia. Un jinete sin su dragón está muerto."--Artículo uno, sección uno del Código de jinetes de dragones
Violet Sorrengail creía que a sus veinte años se uniría al Cuadrante de los Escribas para vivir una vida tranquila, estudiando sus amados libros y las historias antiguas que tanto le fascinan.
Sin embargo, por órdenes de su madre, la temida comandante general, Violet debe unirse a los miles de candidatos que luchan por formar parte de la élite de Navarre: los jinetes de dragones.
Cuando eres más pequeña y frágil que los demás, tu vida corre peligro, porque los dragones no se vinculan con humanos débiles; de hecho, los incineran.
Con más jinetes que dragones disponibles, buena parte de los candidatos mataría a Violet con tal de mejorar sus probabilidades de éxito; otros, como el despiadado Xaden Riorson, el líder de ala más poderoso del Cuadrante, la asesinarían simplemente por ser la hija de la comandante general.
Para sobrevivir, necesitará aprovechar al máximo todo su ingenio.
Día tras día, la guerra que se libra al exterior del Colegio se torna más letal, las defensas del reino se debilitan y los muertos aumentan.
Por si fuera poco, Violet sospecha que los líderes de Navarre esconden un terrible secreto.
Amistad, rivalidad y pasión... En el Colegio de Guerra de Basgiath todos tienen una agenda oculta y saben que una vez adentro solo hay dos posibilidades: graduarse o morir.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER. OVER 5 MILLION COPIES SOLD, TRANSLATED INTO MORE THAN 30 LANGUAGES.
The romantasy phenomenon that has captivated the world: dragons, romance, and a heroine who leaves a mark on every page.
"A dragon without its rider is a tragedy. A rider without their dragon is dead."--Article One, Section One of the Dragon Rider Codex
Violet Sorrengail thought that at twenty, she would join the Scribe Quadrant to live a quiet life, studying her beloved books and the ancient stories that fascinated her.
However, under orders from her mother--the feared commanding general--Violet must join the thousands of candidates fighting to become part of Navarre's elite: the dragon riders.
When you're smaller and more fragile than the others, your life is at risk, because dragons don't bond with weak humans; in fact, they incinerate them.
With more riders than dragons available, many candidates would kill Violet just to improve their odds of success. Others, like the ruthless Xaden Riorson, the most powerful wing leader in the Quadrant, would kill her simply for being the daughter of the commanding general.
To survive, she'll need to rely on every ounce of her cunning.
Day by day, the war raging outside the College grows deadlier, the kingdom's defenses weaken, and the death toll rises.
As if that weren't enough, Violet suspects that Navarre's leaders are hiding a terrible secret.
Friendship, rivalry, and passion... At Basgiath War College, everyone has a hidden agenda, and once inside, there are only two outcomes: graduate or die.
