Patrick Ness’s long-awaited new novel, the author of the bestsellers “The Rest of Monsters” and “Chaos Walking.” A consuming story of revenge, redemption, and dragons. People have never trusted dragons, even though for centuries they managed to keep the peace with them. This story begins on a cold Sunday evening in 1957. Sixteen-year-old Sara Duehurst and her father are so poor that they have to hire a dragon to work on the farm. Her father orders Sara to stay away from the dragon, but she begins to take an interest in this mysterious, talking creature. Soon she will learn how an ancient sect, a mysterious avenger, and FBI agents—who are tracking him—are connected. And also what role Sara herself will have to play in the struggle between humans and dragons. “A smart, complex, and utterly gripping story.” – The Times “Patrick Ness is an insanely wonderful writer.” – John Green, author of the bestsellers “The Fault in Our Stars” and “Paper Towns” About the author Patrick Ness is a famous American writer and journalist, author of ten novels, including the bestsellers “Chaos Walking,” “More Than This,” and “The Rest of Monsters.” His books have been translated into 32 languages.
