Once dragons ruled the Rain Wilds tended by privileged human servants known as Elderlings. But
now the magnificent creatures have been driven nearly to extinction?and the last of their kind
born weak and deformed have one last hope of survival: to return to their ancient city of
Kelsingra. After a long and harsh journey Kelsingra is finally near on the far side of the
toxic Rain Wild River. But the greatest trial still lies ahead for the dragons and their human
keepers. Rapidly approaching enemies driven by wickedness greed and dark desires covet the
treasures that await within the magical city's walls. And to reach their ancestral sanctuary
the dragons must reawaken a power lost to them generations earlier. The dragons must learn to
fly.
