Eon--the award-winning crossover fantasy that soars!
Sixteen-year-old Eon has a dream, and a mission. For years, he's been
studying sword-work and magic, toward one end. He and his master hope
that he will be chosen as a Dragoneye-an apprentice to one of the twelve
energy dragons of good fortune.
But Eon has a dangerous secret. He is actually Eona, a sixteen-year-old
girl who has been masquerading as a twelve-year-old boy. Females are
forbidden to use Dragon Magic; if anyone discovers she has been hiding
in plain sight, her death is assured.
When Eon's secret threatens to come to light, she and her allies are
plunged into grave danger and a deadly struggle for the Imperial throne.
Eon must find the strength and inner power to battle those who want to
take her magic...and her life.
