'''Longlisted for the CILIP Carnegie Medal 2013'''
 
The Comonot Treaty is approaching its 40th anniversary but the state of play between humans and dragons is still parlous. The people in Goredd still revile and distrust the dragons who walk among them in human form. For the dragons, humans are like cockroaches - easily crushed individually, but surprisingly resilient when they band together. Humans are impulsive, emotional. Dragons are impassive, logical. It's not an easy fit and the fragile peace is at risk after the murder of a Goreddi prince. Dragons are suspected of the crime.
If dragons are your thing, then we can recommend [[Eon: Rise of the Dragoneye by Alison Goodman]]. Complex, vivid, and with themes of difference, it's a classy, classy read. With dragons! We also loved [[The Hidden Kingdom by Ian Beck]] - a poet prince finds himself thrust into a terrifying battle with the forces of evil in thrilling tale full of danger.
