    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Meka has returned from her exile for an ancient, necessary rite: capturing a king dragon of the Crown Mountains. Crossing the plains with Lilley, a veteran of the war that colonised her people, and Raka, a traitor to her people, Meka's journey is filled with dangers within and without. As conflict threatens to reignite, the survival of her people, their dragons, and the land itself will depend on the choices &&&8211; defiant or compliant &&&8211; that Meka and her companions make.

    Long description:

    M&&&233;ka must capture a king dragon, or die trying.

    War between the island states of Kattaka and Mazemoor has left no one unscathed. M&&&233;ka’s nomadic people, the Ba’Suon, were driven from their homeland by the Kattakans. Those who remained were forced to live under the Kattakan yoke, to serve their greed for gold alongside the dragons with whom the Ba’Suon share an empathic connection.

    A decade later and under a fragile truce, M&&&233;ka returns home from her exile for an ancient, necessary rite: gathering a king dragon of the Crown Mountains to maintain balance in the wild country. But M&&&233;ka’s act of compassion toward an imprisoned dragon and Lilley, a Kattakan veteran of the war, soon draws the ire of the imperialistic authorities. They order the unwelcome addition of an enigmatic Ba’Suon traitor named Raka to accompany M&&&233;ka and Lilley to the mountains.

    The journey is filled with dangers both within and without. As conflict threatens to reignite, the survival of the Ba’Suon people, their dragons, and the land itself will depend on the decisions &&&8211; defiant or compliant &&&8211; that M&&&233;ka and her companions choose to make. But not even M&&&233;ka, kin to the great dragons of the North, can anticipate the depth of the consequences to her world.

    The Mountain Crown is a mystic and atmospheric adventure that explores generational memory, of being lost, regaining trust, and reclaiming the self, set in a rich world of rebellion and resistance. This book will bring readers on a journey that illuminates the meaning of freedom, the virtues and pitfalls of culture and tradition, along with the conflicts they may cause. An action-packed read for fans of Untethered Sky.” &&&8212;Ai Jiang, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Linghun
