"As the youngest sibling of his MudWing hatching, Umber doesn’t have the responsibilities of his bigwings, Reed, nor the heroic destiny prophesied for his brother, Clay. He’s always been content with his role as the cheerful, goofy, little brother. But when his sister, Sora, causes a tragedy at Jade Mountain Academy, Umber finds himself on the run and thrown into a whole new role–that of protector.
Umber and Sora fly south in search of a place where they can live far away from other dragons . . . until a kind hybrid dragon named Mulberry saves him from a kraken attack, and Umber realizes they don’t have to survive alone after all. In fact, there’s an entire community living on a forgotten island, full of dragons hiding from their own dark pasts.

As the two MudWings settle into the Court of Refuge, they start to realize that nothing in this place is quite what it seems, and the protection it offers comes with a price. Even as Umber falls for Prince Mulberry, he learns he must find a way to unlock the past of this mysterious island to ensure he and Sora have a future. And when the dragons in power try to stop him, he’ll have to decide what he cares about most . . . and whether he can be the hero these dragons need after all."
