The Legend of Oescienne: The Finding - Paperback
by Jenna Elizabeth Johnson (Author)
Humans are a myth. Jahrra is the exception.
Raised in secret by the dragon Jaax, Jahrra has spent her life in Oescienne as a living anomaly. To the rest of the world, her kind is a fairytale lost to an ancient curse. But as the shadows of the Crimson King lengthen, the illusions keeping her safe are thinning. When strange magic stirs in the heart of the province, Jahrra realizes her dragon guardians are hiding a dangerous truth. With an unseen evil closing in, she must navigate a world of shifting alliances to protect the only home she's ever known-unaware that her very existence is the spark that will ignite a revolution. One girl is the key. A world of dragons is her shield. The legend begins in Oescienne. Perfect for fans of the high-stakes adventure in Wings of Fire and the rich world-building of Eragon, this is a coming-of-age epic for the whole family. ***Literary Classics Winner for Best Young Adult Series*** "Amazing book, fantastic and unique story concept."
