In a nearly-steampunk 18th-century America one step to the left, an intelligent but poor girl is the first person to find and bond to a native dragon in generations. Forced to go to a dragon-training school for rich foreigners, she's thrown into a world set against her and has to balance her fight against society with her desperation for knowledge. Almost despite herself she becomes close friends with some of the people around her - a damaged fellow student and kind servant in particular.

ETHICS
None of the books are sourced from Amazon unless they are completely unavailable anywhere else.
Please consider using app.TheStoryGraph.com, which is a Black-owned indie website similar to Goodreads (which is owned by Amazon), and which has better recommendation functions.
Publishing a book has never been easy for people of limited means or from oppressed groups; over the past few years it's gotten exponentially more difficult. An author's success - or even ability to continue publishing - is much more tied to each of their individual works than is true of creators in other industries (for example, in movies, music, or video games). Leaving a review on any website - Goodreads, TheStoryGraph, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or elsewhere - can have an enormous and measurable impact. Even if you don't leave a written review and only leave a star rating, please consider leaving feedback on this book somewhere.
