Stonebriar Academy - Thomas Boyhan

Jamie Leeds's first semester at Stonebriar Academy: School for Dragon Riders was a tumultuous one. First he had to win admission when only one hundred applicants would be selected from over four hundred. Then Jamie had to learn how to use the power of a Dragon belt and learn to fly with a Dragon. Added to all of this, against all tradition, Jamie has been bonded to a Dragon in his first year. But Jamie overcomes all of those difficulties and even helps his bonded Dragon, Tomith, whom he has nicknamed Tommy, to learn how to fly. Now Jamie and Tommy face the second semester, and in this semester they will continue to struggle- but not only with their classes. They have now been caught up in the Stonebriar House Championship. Each year, the five Houses-Blackburn, Warwick, Aubondale, Waverly, and Pembroke-all compete for the coveted House Championship. Jamie's and Tommy's House, Aubondale, has finished in last place for the previous seven years. The overriding passion of every student in Aubondale is to finally get their house out of last place. To help accomplish this, Jamie and Tommy will have to compete in the school's Dragon races, something they know nothing about. Even as Jamie and Tommy settle into the day-to-day struggles of school life at Stonebriar, they have been marked for capture or assassination by a shadowy organization known at the Sisterhood. For decades, the Sisterhood has been seeking to fulfill a prophecy that will grant the sisters total control over all the nations of Aurellius-along with immortality. But, in order to achieve their goal, they must eliminate Jamie and Tommy. Jamie's and Tommy's greatest challenge will not be helping get their House out of last place-their greatest challenge will be to simply survive.
