Cimorene is everything a princess is not supposed to be: headstrong, smart, and eager for adventure... and bored. So bored that she runs away to live with a dragon. And not just any dragon, but Kazul — one of the most powerful and dangerous dragons around! Cimorene strikes a deal to be Kazul's princess, keeping house and enjoying being free to do what she pleases. She even shoes away the princes who think they are there to "rescue" here.
But there's trouble afoot for both Cimorene and the dragons. Soon she's coping with a witch, a jinn, a death-dealing talking bird, a stone prince, and some very oily wizards who are plotting to destroy the dragons for good. If this princess ran away to find some excitement, it looks like she's found plenty! This humor-filled and adventure-packed first volume of the Enchanted Forest Chronicles series introduces young readers to a spunky and individualistic princess.
