Only 13 students are admitted each year to the Academia Solomonaria, the world's only dragon rider academy. Those who wish to pass the entrance exam must summon their courage and demonstrate their skills. The essential knowledge required for this is contained in this book: anatomy, wings, life cycles, behavior, hunting techniques, courtship, fire, and the secrets of dragon flight. And of course, everything about the different dragon species and their habitats.

In this long-lost manual, aspiring dragon riders will find all the information they need about dragons and how to handle them properly.

Artfully illustrated and beautifully bound with a linen-textured cover featuring gold foil embossing and a glued title label.
