About the Book
When a dragon destroys her life, Quen joins a band of rogues and mages hunting the beast. But Quen soon discovers she's the one being hunted. Will Quen and her world survive the Season of the Dragon?
Book Synopsis
Quen was born cursed with two souls-one human, the other a changeling. Sensing her oddity, animals avoid Quen like the plague, making Quen a misfit in her herding culture. At nearly twenty, Quen has failed to match with a herdclan and is at risk of becoming pesha-no one.
Then, a dragon attacks Quen's village, leaving her life a charred ruin. Fueled by her quest for vengeance, Quen joins a band of rogues hunting the dragon. She finds kindred spirits-and the possibility of love. But she'll lose her newfound family if they discover her secret.
Quen's journey soon reveals a terrible truth: her dark secret has caught the attention of dangerous eyes. And now, she has become the hunted.
Quen and her companions must face a power-hungry ruler, a shadowy dragon cult, and even an esteemed magic school leader-all vying to control Quen's growing power. But Quen's fiercest battle lies within as she struggles to maintain control of her own skin.
At the end of Quen's journey, her fate will be sealed.
