For thirty years, the ancient dragon of Ember Peak has slept in silence—the only mountain in the kingdom where snow refuses to fall. Every year, brave warriors climb its slopes hoping to receive the dragon's legendary mark, a symbol of power that hasn't been seen in three decades. None has ever returned successfully. Twelve-year-old Kai doesn't care about legends or glory. All he wants is to keep his little sister Mira warm through the brutal winter. When he sneaks up the forbidden mountain in search of firewood, he never expects the ground to crumble beneath his feet—or to tumble straight into the dragon's ancient lair. As enormous golden eyes blink open for the first time in decades and the mountain itself begins to shake awake, Kai makes a startling discovery: he didn't come to steal warmth from the mountain. He IS the warmth the dragon has been waiting for all along. Now, with an increasingly grumpy (and surprisingly sarcastic) dragon refusing to let him leave, a kingdom full of warriors who'll do anything for the dragon's power, and a little sister who thinks having a dragon friend is the best thing ever, Kai's simple life is about to get very, very complicated.
