Tal never thought he would end up as a flight attendant on a budget dragon airline. He was destined for the life of a mage after graduating from the most prestigious university in the realm. That is, until his magic abandoned him, forcing him to flee the university in disgrace.
Now, rather than getting his magic back, he's stuck dealing with a stubborn dragon, needy passengers, and the demands of dragon rights activists who have begun picketing the airline. Worse, Tal makes the mistake of falling for the activists' leader, who just might convince him to care about something besides magic, despite his best efforts.
Meanwhile, the one form of magic returning to Tal is the rare ability to speak with dragons. This ability arrives just in time for him to learn that the dragons are planning a fiery rebellion against the airline, which makes the whole thing decidedly, and inconveniently, his problem.
As the passengers, activists, and even the dragon begin to worm their way into Tal's heart, he must decide whether to accept his new life and help their cause, or keep fighting for his old one.
