Dragon Finder is a two-book middle-grade series by Dan Abnett published by Puffin. Dragon Frontier (2013) and Burning Moon (2014) are set on the American frontier during the era of westward expansion, with the twist that dragons exist alongside horses and wagons. The protagonist must learn to work with these creatures in a world that does not fully understand them.

Abnett wrote several children’s and middle-grade books alongside his adult comics and novels, and Dragon Finder represents that strand of his output. The series has the fast-paced plotting and clear action sequences common to middle-grade adventure fiction. Burning Moon continues the story from Dragon Frontier and serves as a direct sequel rather than a standalone book, so the two should be read in order.
