Book Summary
The Ice Dragon is a lyrical fantasy novella set in a harsh, wintry world where seasons last for years and dragons are both feared and revered. The story follows Adara, a quiet, cold-loving girl born during the coldest winter in living memory. Unlike other children, Adara feels a mysterious connection to an ancient and legendary creature known as the Ice Dragon, a being made of living ice that few have ever seen and none have ever tamed.
As war erupts between rival kingdoms and fire-breathing dragons ravage the land, Adara’s bond with the Ice Dragon becomes crucial. In a moment of great danger, she rides the Ice Dragon into battle, using its icy power to defend her people. The story is both a tale of bravery and a meditation on loss, isolation, and growing up. Told with poetic simplicity, the novella highlights the contrast between fire and ice, innocence and war, and the quiet strength found in those who seem most fragile.
