It's 1934 in New York City during the Great Depression and dragon eggs are a coveted item as they can be trained for arena fights which are quite lucrative. Wait, what? Dragons? That isn't in the history books but then this isn't your reality or world, people.
Enrico, a boy who seems to be barely even ten, loses his father to a dragon, comes to hate them early on and gets training to eventually go into a dragon cave with a bunch of other hunters to steal their eggs. It turns into a train wreck.
This was really cool to read especially since I had next to no idea what I was getting into, I chose it because the cover was amazing. Enrico's story is incredibly sad and his strength throughout is beautiful to read. The art was stunning and I found myself just looking at the art very often. The story was interesting however as this is the first volume it hasn't really had enough time to get very far. I hope that I can continue to read this series and see where Enrico's story goes.

Loved the art and the alt-world Depression-era setting.
