Graci Kim is back with the final book in her exciting and fantastical Slinger duology where dragons and phoenixes roam the skies of Seoul; meals magically appear based on your mood; and dreams literally come to life.
“A mind-blowingly original fantasy adventure—Graci Kim has done it again!”—Rick Riordan, New York Times #1 best-selling author of Percy Jackson and The Olympians
“A definite must-read for anyone who loves stories of found family, clever magic, and learning to embrace your true self. Also: I want a bloom dragon!”— Shannon Messenger, New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of the Keeper of the Lost Cities series
After successfully passing the Annual Royal Slinger Trials, Aria is about to kick off her second year of training at the Royal League of Dreamslingers. All she and her bloom dragon, Rio, have to do is pass the final Fellowship exam and they’ll finally become fully-fledged Fellows.
But before training can begin, the king of Royal Hanguk cancels the exam, and instead commands Aria and the other novices to reclaim the Touch of Death—a powerful ancient relic that was stolen from the kingdom. And by Aria’s mother, no less.
If that wasn’t bad enough, Aria experiences a devastating loss and considers going to horrific lengths to cope . . . even potentially joining the freedom slingers—a rogue and dangerous faction of dreamslingers. How will Aria choose to deal with her grief? And will her decisions result in the end of the League?
