When a train derailment releases toxic chemicals into the atmosphere, corporations rush to burn away the evidence-but they can't hide the truth from those who see through dragon eyes. Fifteen-year-olds Hannah and Jacob are just trying to enjoy their camping trip when they encounter Jupiter, an ancient dragon guardian who grants them the ability to see environmental damage invisible to others. Armed with magical dragon glass and a connection to planetary guardians, they discover they're part of a larger mission to save Earth from environmental destruction. As corporations and governments conspire to hide the devastating impact of the chemical disaster, Hannah and Jacob create the Young Dragons environmental movement and a secret hacker collective called Dragon's Fire. But exposure comes at a cost-Jupiter must sacrifice her own life force to cleanse Earth's poisoned skies. Combining contemporary environmental activism with dragon mythology and Indigenous wisdom, this YA environmental fantasy explores what it means to be a guardian of Earth in the modern age. While Hannah and Jacob navigate personal challenges-including Jacob's journey of coming out and Hannah's evolving relationship with her protective mother-they're learning that saving the environment requires both ancient knowledge and modern action. From student protests to corporate expos???s, from northern lights to underground fires, "Draconim Lacrima Mortis" weaves together themes of environmental responsibility, personal growth, and the enduring connection between humanity and nature. Perfect for readers who love their fantasy with real-world relevance and their dragons with a cause.
