Young Ember is shocked to find a small human child standing in front of her when she wakes one morning. All she knows about humans is that long ago they had stolen the dragons’ magic, and that her kind and humans have been mortal enemies ever since. When the Herd Father discovers the boy, and orders that he be held until he can be killed, Ember feels a stir of pity for the tiny, squalling little being. She defies her herd, and sets out to rescue the child, but is caught by Brand, another young dragon, and almost despairs before realizing that he, too, plans to save the boy.
Together, Brand and Ember flee with the child to a cave high in the mountains of Callore where they meet Cidrok, an ancient and wise dragon, who tells them that the child is none other than Prince Shadrel, son of King Briais who has promised that, someday soon, dragons will once again rule alongside humans.
Ember and Brand, and their human companions, must face many challenges, and dangers, if they hope to win out against the forces of ignorance and evil that threaten them at every turn.
