Overview

How to Train Your Dragon meets Quidditch through the Ages in this debut fantasy, set in an alternate contemporary world, in which people compete with dragons in an international sports tournament.

Seventeen-year-old Lana Torres has always preferred dragons to people. In one week, sixteen countries will ship out riders and their dragons to the dunes of Dubai, where the Blazewrath World Cup is being held. Lana is gunning for a spot in her native Puerto Rico's team as their Runner--the only player without a dragon steed. While dragon riders score points in the skies, the runners must race past flames from rival dragons to be the first to get the Iron Scale to the top of the tallest dune.

After rescuing a prized dragon from an attacker, Lana finds herself with an unexpected gift from the International Federation of Blazewrath: A spot on the team. Reality sets in, however, when faced with the actual prospect of fleeing the seven-headed Hydras of Greece, dodging fireballs from the Russian Gorynych, and battling against the Chinese Shen-lung. What's worse, Lana has to deal with the return of The Sire, an ancient dragon who's been cursed to remain in human form. He might not be able to wield magic anymore, but The Sire's army is burning down dragon sanctuaries, freeing the captive dragons and murdering humans. And he will not stop until the Blazewrath World Cup is shut down. Permanently. All Lana ever wanted to be was a Runner, but now she must choose between playing the game she's been chosen for, or fighting the war no one asked her to.
