Twelve year old Eon has been in training for years. His intensive study of Dragon Magic, based on East Asian astrology, involves two kinds of skills; sword work and magical aptitude. He and his master hope that he will be chosen as Dragoneye: an apprentice to one of the twelve energy dragons of good fortune.
But Eon has a dangerous secret. He is actually Eona, a sixteen year old girl who has been masquerading as a boy for the chance to become a Dragoneye. Females are forbidden to use the dragon magic; if her ruse is discovered, her death is certain.
When Eon's secret comes to light, she and her allies are plunged into a deadly struggle for power, survival, and the imperial throne. Eon must find the inner power to battle those who want to take her magic... and her life.
This is a top notch high fantasy novel. Those who loved Eragon or inkheart will love this book.
