Synopsis

The expedition climbs up the Rain Wild River, whose acid waters deeply mark those who frequent them. The keepers begin to mutate in contact with the dragons — their skin scales, their gaze silvers. The worry of the Bingtown Traders grows.

The volume of transformation. The keepers and their dragons begin to synchronize, opening the way to a rebirth of the Elderlings — that half-human half-dragon race whose ruins dot the Rain Wilds. But this molting is not without dangers, and several characters pay the price.

Every skin we shed returns us to ourselves.Dragon Keeper (Part 2) — Robin Hobb
