The Queen’s order to participate in an annual tournament – the Dragonder – gives Mara a chance to escape the oppressive isolation and a miserable existence. She is determined to fight her enemies – and herself. Does Mara have the strength to embrace her Dragon Heart, or will everything she is, was and hoped to be, fall apart? Banned. Cursed. Resilient. Dragon Heart is a compelling tale of friendship, strength and perseverance.
