Violet Sorrengail creía que a sus veinte años se uniría al Cuadrante de Escribas para llevar una vida tranquila, estudiando sus amados libros y las historias antiguas que tanto le fascinan. Sin embargo, por órdenes de su madre, la temida comandante general, debe unirse a los miles de candidatos que, en el Colegio de Guerra Basgiath, luchan por formar parte de la élite de Navarre: los jinetes de dragón. Cuando eres más pequeña y frágil que los demás tu vida corre peligro, porque los dragones no se vinculan con humanos débiles; de hecho, los incineran. A esto se le suma que, con más jinetes que dragones disponibles, buena parte de los candidatos mataría a Violet con tal de mejorar sus probabilidades de éxito; y hay otros, como el despiadado Xaden Riorson, el líder de ala más poderoso del Cuadrante de Jinetes, que la asesinarían simplemente por ser la hija de la comandante general. Para sobrevivir, necesitará aprovechar al máximo todo su ingenio. Día tras día, la guerra que se libra en el exterior del Colegio se torna más letal, las defensas del reino se debilitan y los muertos aumentan. Por si fuera poco, Violet sospecha que los líderes de Navarre esconden un terrible secreto. Amistad, rivalidad y pasión... En el Colegio de Guerra Basgiath todos tienen un plan oculto y saben que, una vez dentro, solo hay dos posibilidades: graduarse o morir.
