    Summary

    For the survival of his people, Hiccup Haddock is the price. A political offering sent to a powerful, neighboring kingdom, betrothed to a noble so feared, no one dares speak her name above a whisper. They call her 'The Cursed Noble,' a figure of terrifying legends and the key to his tribe's salvation. Hiccup expects a monster, a troll, or a beast in human form. He doesn't expect her.

    For Astrid, he is just another unwelcome bargain, a barbarian pawn in a political game she's long grown tired of. Cursed to a life of isolation and fear, she knows this marriage is nothing more than entrapment, another soul for her reputation to inevitably break.

    But when the sarcastic outcast meets the isolated noble, the clash of their worlds sparks something unexpected. In a court built on fear and secrets, Hiccup's refusal to see a monster might be the most dangerous move of all. Especially when the whispers of war begin to rise, and the true nature of Astrid's curse threatens to burn their entire world to the ground.

    Summary

    He crosses his arms and jeers. “Suppose you aren’t wearing that dress for fun?”

    The irony's so clear, she wants to laugh. But she doesn't. There's a wry look on her face when she replies.

    “I’m late to a wedding.”

    Astrid Helena Hofferson, the famed slayer of Dragons and General of the Hooligan Tribe, is in thrall to the notorious Dragon Master, and she’s not quite sure how it happened.

    After being forced to choose between a dangerous new enemy, and the man who's been plaguing Berk for the last five years, Astrid strikes a deal, and is made to return to the Dragon Master's island, finally putting her prejudice against Dragons to rest.

    But despite the intrigue of his past, Astrid experiences strange visions and sights, and realise that perhaps, the island, and all of its inhabitants, aren’t what they seem.
