In a world where dragons are feared and hunted, twelve-year-old Zander never expected his family’s dragon, Drake, to put their lives in danger. But when mysterious men arrive, determined to kill Drake, they leave devastation behind–turning Zander and his little sister Kate into orphans. With their home in ruins, their only hope is to seek safety in Trulith, a kingdom rumored to be a place of peace and wealth.

But Trulith is far from safe. Dragons attack the city, bringing destruction from the sky, and Zander realizes that Drake’s presence might make them targets. As he and Kate struggle to build a new life among a group of orphans, Zander is forced to make an impossible choice–stay and risk Drake’s life, or leave behind the only home they have left.

Perfect for fans of Wings of Fire and Eragon, The Dragon Keeper is a fast-paced, heartwarming adventure about courage, friendship, and the unbreakable bonds that define a family.

The Dragon Keeper is written as a standalone but is also the second book in The Illusia Chronicles. It’s perfect for new or returning readers.
