Dragon's Keep


Dragon’s Keep
by Janet Lee Carey


In this young adult novel, Princess Rosalind of Wilde Island, where her royal family was exiled 600 years before the reign of Henry II, is born with a dragon claw on the ring finger of her left hand. Her mother ruthlessly protects her by keeping this deformity secret. Through a series of events, Rosalind is captured by a dragon king and becomes the slave "Briar," whose job it is to take care of the pips (baby dragons). She comes to understand life from the dragons’ point of view before taking her rightful place as queen of Wilde Island.
