Battle Dragons: City of Thieves by Alex London is the explosive first book in a middle-grade fantasy series where futuristic technology collides with dragon-powered adventures.
 
In Drakopolis, dragons aren’t just mythical—they’re part of everyday life. People race them, fight them, and even use them as transportation. For Abel, an ordinary kid from a not-so-ordinary city, life takes a wild turn when he bonds with a dragon of his own. Suddenly thrust into a dangerous underworld of thieves, gangs, and secret battles, Abel must uncover his hidden courage and learn what it really means to be a hero.
 
Full of humor, nonstop action, and jaw-dropping dragon battles, City of Thieves is perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Wings of Fire, and How to Train Your Dragon.
