Quest for the True Dragon: A Graphic Novel
Daijiang's continued pursuit of Grace has made it clear that she and Nate are crucial to his plan. But as her Hùnxuè powers grow stronger, Grace can't help but feel it's unfair she might be missing out on a normal school life. Other kids get to relax, watch movies with friends, and go on dates, while Grace is risking her life to save the world. Something has felt off about her connection with Nate lately, and she keeps dreaming of her father and his ominous insistence that she must wake the dragon kings.
When a trip to rendezvous with an old ally goes awry, Grace and her friends find themselves stranded in Tokyo with only one day to wake the Southern Dragon King. But with the race against the clock exacerbating tensions on the team, can Grace get back in sync with Nate and her friends before it's too late?
Jaimal Yogis
As a writer, surfer, and seeker, Jaimal Yogis has always been drawn to the places where inner worlds meet outer adventure. His stories don’t just entertain—they reflect a lifelong search for meaning, often unfolding at the edge of the ocean or within the rhythm of ancient myth. Whether crafting lyrical nonfiction about mindfulness or diving into the dragon-filled skies of middle-grade fantasy, Yogis writes with a grounded heart and a curious spirit.
Raised in California, he ran away to Hawaii as a teenager in search of waves—and maybe something more. That journey would inspire his bestselling memoir Saltwater Buddha, a coming-of-age tale that wove Zen teachings with surf culture. The voice he found there—introspective, clear-eyed, and gently humorous—has remained a signature across his work, from adult reflections like All Our Waves Are Water to his deeply imaginative City of Dragons series for younger readers.
City of Dragons
In a city humming with secrets and storm clouds, a girl discovers that her grief is not the end of her story—but the beginning of a legend.
City of Dragons invites readers into a vivid, emotionally layered world where ancient creatures aren’t myths—they’re real, and they’re waking up. At its heart is Grace, a young girl reeling from loss, who stumbles upon a hidden truth beneath the modern sprawl of Hong Kong: dragons are alive, and she’s bound to them in ways she never imagined.
City of Dragons consists of two books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of two more books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
