The Complete 'Deadweed Dragons Series' Boxset. Books 1, 2 & 3.

In matters of death and dragons, only the brave survive...

When fifteen-year-old Dayie makes a dangerous mountain climb to steal a dragon egg, she quickly winds up with more than she bargained for. The dragon egg hatches before she can return home, forcing her to hide the hot-headed young hatchling... Or risk losing him to a vicious, invasive plant called Deadweed that's creeping ever southward.

But she's soon discovered when the Deadweed encroaches. Now, Dayie must give up her dragon, or take her place in the Training Hall of Dagban, where discord between dragon and rider runs wild.

Dayie and her fellow riders must bond with their dragon allies if they are to fight off the Deadweed, and an even greater scourge that threatens the kingdom. But Dayie wields mysterious magic, which comes at great cost. To save her home, she must uncover her mysterious past, and the source of her unusual powers.

And both she and her dragon are running out of time...
