Publisher's Synopsis
The Fate of the World and the Destiny of a Chinese Orphan Collide in America.
After the Dragon King's ultimate sacrifice, Little Tiger learns that life in America is not exactly a dragon parade. He must one day return to China to reclaim his stolen inheritance, but not with servants of the Beast Witches searching for him. Until the first full moon of the New Year, a remote bayou in Tarpon Springs is the only place he and his dragon hatchlings can hide. Little Tiger soon appreciates his eccentric guardians, as well as the marshes and springs of his coastal refuge. On his thirteenth birthday, even as his enemies surround him, he learns the truth about his destiny and awakens a powerful magic sleeping inside him.
