Two nations at war. One dragon that could change everything.
For generations, the Hundred Isles have built their warships from the bones of long-dead dragons. The beasts vanished from the world, and their remains became the foundation of power, pride, and endless bloodshed. Now, a living dragon has been sighted in distant waters—and every captain knows that whoever captures it will rule the seas.
Among those who sail is Joron Twiner, a disgraced shipwife given one final chance to reclaim his honor. But to survive the hunt, he must learn to command both his crew and himself.
Winner of the British Fantasy Award, RJ Barker’s The Bone Ships is a soaring tale of courage, loyalty, and the cost of glory.
