Silver Batal and the Water Dragon Races

A girl must journey far from her desert home to fulfill her dream of racing water dragons in this illustrated middle-grade fantasy adventure.

Thirteen-year-old Silver Batal calls the desert home, but her heart belongs to the waters. Expected to become a jeweler like her father, she harbors a secret, forbidden wish to race water dragons. When her friendship with a mysterious old woman leads her to Hiyyan, a baby dragon that can swim and fly, her destiny is clear.

Now Silver, Hiyyan, and her resourceful cousin Brajon set out on a perilous trek to join the legendary races in Calidia. But the road to the royal city is filled with danger, and the trio must band together as they encounter ferocious cave beasts, clever desert foxes, and cutthroat competition.

As Silver and Hiyyan soar through the skies and speed through the seas, both must learn what they're willing to sacrifice for a shot at glory.
