Dragonborn is out TODAY! Soaring off to bookshops across the country and into the hands of young readers. It is, I think, the very best book I've written, and I'm so excited to see it fly. Farewell little dragon, safe travels! X

I hope you're happy @struan-murray.bsky.social! My 9 year old is bereft having finished Dragonborn because the next instalment isn't out yet! He adores it and now can't choose his next book, as he thinks nothing will compare! 😂 How long until he can get his hands on part two?!

Started reading this ages ago but then had “The Call.” Finally got back to it and WOW!
“Dragonborn” by @struan-murray.bsky.social is an utterly fantastic start to a new series. Loved the hidden world next to ours. Truly epic story-telling and Struan is the master of the “what!?!” twist. Loved it!
