They incinerate them.<br/><br/> With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.<br/><br/> Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda because once you enter, there are only two ways out: <i>graduate or die</i>.<br/><br/><b>This stunning, fully illustrated novel has breathtaking full-colour artwork from the first half (chapters 1-22).</b><br/><br/><b><i>This edition is not signed by the author.</i></b>
