Time is running out.

Qibli knows that the ancient, all-powerful dragon Darkstalker must be stopped. And he knows he could stop him -- if he had magic. With even a sliver of Darkstalker's enchanted scroll, Qibli could rewrite history, the right way: end all wars, forever; make every dragon happy; and then perhaps cast a tiny spell so that everyone would like him . . .

Instead, as Darkstalker's venomous influence spreads across Pyrrhia, entrancing or killing every dragon in the seven tribes, Qibli has only a handful of borrowed magic and his clever brain to fight back.

Can Qibli summon the power to fight the most dangerous dragon Pyrrhia has ever seen? Or will evil triumph, sending Qibli's world up in flames?
