London is at war, and twelve-year-old Henry feels lost in the noise and confusion of the world around him. But everything changes the day he finds a glowing red egg hidden near the river.
From it hatches Crimson, a dragon full of ancient memory and quiet strength. Together, they flee the city and begin a journey across the countryside, chased by strangers who want to use Crimson for the war.
With only a worn compass and a loyal friend, Henry must learn who he is and why the dragon chose him.
A heartfelt adventure about bravery, belonging, and the magic of being different.
