Das Finale der großen "Regenwildnis"-Saga von World-Fantasy-Award-Gewinnerin Robin Hobb. Die Drachen von Kelsingra haben ihre neue Heimat erfolgreich verteidigt. Nun haben ihre menschlichen Hüter Zeit gewonnen, um zu wahren Gefährten der Drachen zu werden. Und auch die Drachen haben jetzt die Ruhe, um ihre Flügel voll zu entwickeln und die sagenumwobenen Silbervorkommen zu finden, die sie zum Überleben brauchen. Doch gerade dieser neue Reichtum von Kelsingra ruft neue Neider auf den Plan.

Erstmals auf Deutsch: der dritte Teil der "Regenwildnis"-Saga von New-York-Times-Bestsellerautorin Robin Hobb! Einst herrschten die Drachen von ihrer Stadt Kelsingra aus über die Regenwildnis. Aber heute sind sie nur noch ein schwacher Schatten ihrer selbst, und ihre menschlichen Hüter verfügen bei Weitem nicht über die Ausbildung der Diener der alten Zeit. Und doch haben sie gemeinsam ihr Ziel erreicht und Kelsingra wieder in Besitz genommen. Keinen Tag zu früh, denn ihre menschlichen Feinde – Drachenjäger und Schlimmeres – sind ihnen dicht auf den Fersen.

Die letzten Drachen verlassen sich auf sie - Doch für Gold würden Menschen alles tun. Die Fortsetzung der Regenwildnis-Saga, die mit "Wächter der Drachen" begann. Die Brut der großen Drachin Tintaglia und ihre menschlichen Hüter haben ihr Ziel noch nicht erreicht. Die verlorene Drachenstadt Kelsingra scheint in unerreichbarer Ferne. Doch ein Zurück gibt es nun nicht mehr, denn Drachenjäger sind ihnen auf den Fersen. Plötzlich müssen sich die Drachen neben den Gefahren der Regenwildnis auch noch der Skrupellosigkeit und Gier der Menschen stellen.
