Fifteen dragons have set off on a dangerous trek up the Rain Wild River, in hopes of rediscovering their lost haven, the ancient city of Kelsingra. Accompanying them is a disparate group of rejects from Rain Wild society, including strong and defiant young Thymara; wealthy dragon scholar and Trader's wife Alise; and her companion, the urbane Sedric. These human keepers yearn also to create a new home where they can decide their own fate. But is Kelsingra real or merely a fragment of a glorified past buried deep in the dragons' shared memories?
As they forge ever deeper into uncharted wilderness, starvation, flashfloods, and predators imperil them all. But as dragons and humans alike soon learn, the most savage threats come from within their own company . . .

Pressestimmen
"Hobb's characterization continues to be top-notch, particularly with Thymara, the outcast teenage girl. Her self-awareness and surety is a delight and her insistence on belonging to no one but herself is simply wonderful." - Romantic Times
"fast action, deep emotional bonds and a great ending. . . [I] encourage you to check out Dragon Haven" - Blogcritics. com
"Hobb creates a completely alluring portrait of dragons and their culture." - Bellingham Herald on DRAGON HAVEN
"Hobb has a deft hand with accessible and sympathetic characters, regardless of their fantasy trappings, and he makes effective use of the divide between what the reader knows and what the characters know to build tension. . . . A quick and fun read" - Miami Herald on DRAGON HAVEN
"A satisfying story" - The News-Star (Monroe, LA) on DRAGON HAVEN
"Hobb's strength has always been her ability to create compelling characters to inhabit her richly detailed worlds. The Rain Wilds Chronicles is no exception." - Shroud Magazine Book Reviews on DRAGON KEEPER and DRAGON HAVEN
