"They got the wrong person!"
That was Sable's first thought when she was chosen.
But the dragon academy wasn't looking for strength. She was chosen because she didn't fit in. Her dragon refuses to obey and is her exact opposite in every way, the school turns out to be a survival trial that kills more kids than it graduates, and every step away from home pulls her further into chaos. Caught between a safe, familiar past and a reckless, tempting future she's not ready for, Sable must risk all in a gamble that could cost everything.

I haven't read many books about dragons, but the ones I have read were cool. I decided I would try my hand at it and make it as realistic as I could. There are no powers in this book. No talking dragons, shapeshifters, witches, vampires, or anything else like that. It's just a story that could almost be real.
I combined the dragons with a twisted version of the Hunger Games. Instead of a strict school system, it's literally survival. The teens chosen from each village get thrown into the wilderness with dragons that aren't opposed to killing. If you make it, you graduate. Not many make it.
It's slow build book for sure. For example, the first 8 chapters or so only cover about a day and a half of Sable's adventures after being chosen. There is also destined to be romance in this book, a love triangle to be exact, but it's clean as a whistle I swear.
This book is entirely mine (and very unedited lol). I'll do my best to give images of the characters, dragons and humans, at the beginning of some of the chapters.

P. S. If you like this book, drop a comment at the end. I have a sequel in mind, but I'll only do it once I've reached a certain amount of views.
