About this ebook
‘Spectacular and sexy fantasy’ – Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous Light
The Sky on Fire is a daring, original fantasy heist adventure from Jenn Lyons, acclaimed author of the Chorus of Dragons series, that will thrill fans of Temeraire, Fourth Wing and Dragonriders of Pern.
Enter a world ruled by dragons . . .
Anahrod lives only for survival, forging her own way through the harsh jungles of the Deep with her titan drake by her side. Even when an adventuring party saves her from capture by a local warlord, she is eager to return to her solitary life.
But this is no ordinary rescue. It’s Anahrod’s past catching up with her. These cunning misfits – and their frustratingly appealing dragonrider ringleader – intend to spirit her away to the dragon-ruled sky cities, where they need her help to steal from a dragon’s hoard.
There’s just one problem: the hoard in question belongs to the current regent, Neveranimas – and she wants Anahrod dead.
This soaring standalone fantasy from Jenn Lyons combines conniving dragons, lightning banter, high-stakes intrigue and a little bit of heat.
Praise for The Sky on Fire:
‘Jenn Lyons just keeps getting better and better! The Sky on Fire is fantastic!’ – Glen Cook, author of The Black Company
‘Its plot races like wildfire atop wit and banter . . . an unflappable delight’ – Kate Elliott, author of Unconquerable Sun and Servant Mage
‘The love letter you’ve been looking for to all the things you’ve cherished about the fantasy genre’ – R. R. Virdi, author of The First Binding

About the author
Jenn Lyons lives in Atlanta, Georgia, with her husband, three cats and a nearly infinite number of opinions on anything from Sumerian mythology to the correct way to make a martini.

Formerly an art director and video game producer, she now spends her days writing fantasy. She was nominated twice for the Astounding Award for Best New Writer (in 2020 and 2021). She is the author of the five-book A Chorus of Dragons series and the epic fantasy novel The Sky on Fire.
