Dragoneer Academy is E.E. Knight’s return to dragon-centered fantasy after his Age of Fire series, but pitched at a slightly younger readership and set in a fresh world. The opening book, Novice Dragoneer, follows a young recruit entering an institution where humans and dragons train together, and it moves at a faster pace than Knight’s earlier epic work.

The second book, Daughter of the Serpentine (2020), continues the story and expands the world, but the series has not received a third installment as of early 2026. Readers who enjoy academy-style fantasy with dragon bonding as a central premise will find the two existing books enjoyable, though the incomplete state of the series is worth knowing before starting.
