Being bonded to a dragon, Dax Hunter knows he shouldn’t be afraid of heights. But he is. And unfortunately, his dragon, Fleetwing, happens to be the fastest wind wyvern in the Windblast Plains. Dax’s family expect him to pass his aerial hunter permit test at the International School of Dragon Training in his first year, just like they did. But how does a boy become a skilled dragon rider when he passes out whenever he’s flying high on his dragon?
Dax works hard to become a stronger flyer, but without much success. Will Dax finally learn to overcome his fears and pass his aerial hunting test? Or will he learn another way to put his natural skills to good use?

About the Illustrator
Diana was born in 1989 in Riga, Latvia, where she grew up and lives at the moment. She is mostly a self-taught artist, but she has been studying digital design in a local university and that helped her to understand how to make projects, not just random pictures. She has worked in a couple of creative agencies as a full-time illustrator as well. Her two main sources of inspiration are folklore and nature. A lot of works in her portfolio are based on Latvian mythology and traditional celebrations.
