Book 3.5 in the Casey Grimes series-where Conley awakens a dragon Kansas City tried to bury.
Over 250,000 copies sold worldwide. An action-packed middle grade fantasy adventure for readers ages 9-12.
Kansas City was built on secrets-and one of them is waking up.
When Conley's family moves into the historic Dragon District, he's hoping for a fresh start.
New place. New friends. Maybe a little adventure-as long as he can keep his little brothers out of trouble.
What he gets is an old house scarred by fire-and a dragon egg locked in the basement.
Waiting. With an enormous appetite. And big plans.
The egg isn't just any dragon. It's Dark Sky-the villain buried a century ago.
The city was shaped by fire, scales, and bargains struck to lock Dark Sky away. Conley's family landed in the one house that sits on top of the prison. And now, thanks to Conley's curiosity, the egg is hatching.
To stop Dark Sky, Conley has to do the impossible: locate and awaken the dragons that once protected the city-and the mysterious leader who commanded them.
But waking dragons comes with consequences. And Dark Sky isn't waiting around.
Conley's running out of time to build a team, earn their trust, and face a monster that burned Kansas City once before.
Not every disaster begins at Trickery School.
Not every dragon sleeps forever.
And the nemesis in your basement? Already awake.
