With fuzzy memories of a night of terror, her family gone and an insatiable hunger pushing her forward, she struggles to survive in a land where creatures of fables and nightmares lurk behind every corner.
But who can she trust when the only one speaking her tongue is a voice that guides her deeper into the forbidden forest. And the only one who shows her kindness is a mortal enemy of her kind. All the while the untamed dragon inside her grows stronger, and every day that Yksi relies on her dragonling for survival pulls her further away from her humanity.
