Dragon as crucible. A girl remade. Power rising.
A working-class teenage girl bonds with a dragon that embodies her alter-ego and acts out her deepest fears and desires. Forced into a deadly tournament of elites, she must quickly master their volatile connection to survive the competition and evade ever-circling poachers. With her emerging magic and sanity tied to her dragon’s survival, she transforms anger into agency to wield her dragon’s fire on her own terms.
SABERWING is a young adult coming-of-age fantasy novel where access to magic is controlled by wealth. Appealing to readers of ‘How to Shape A Dragon’s Breath‘, it combines an erratic dragon bond that externalizes the heroine’s repressed emotions — reimiscent of the daemons of ‘His Dark Materials‘ — with the rigid, class-based magic system and coercive, high-stakes tournament structure of ‘Powerless’.
