Recs if you like The Dragonet Prophecy...

JK Rowling is a bigot who uses her platform to hurt transfolks and other marginalized groups (plus she literally just quoted Mein Kampf on the bird site). If you're still supporting her in 2025, don't bother talking to me.

I know there are a couple other dragon lists out there, but a lot of them were missing some of my favourites, so I'm just making my own!

These books the dragons will play a significant role in the plot, even if the focus of the book isn't dragons themselves (like the Hobbit).

For books in a series, I'll only be adding the first one.

Feel free to drop suggestions! I'm trying to include all the dragon books I can.

A compendium of books featuring dragons

Just an absolute butt-tonne of dragon books, baby!!

Dragons everywhere. From tiny, mischievous hatchlings to wise, ancient sky-soarers, these books are packed with scales, sparks, and heart. Expect warmth, wonder, and at least a little fire.

Who TF needs JKR anymore? We got way better books out there dude

Young readers and middle grade

I was recently rereading a book I loved when I was 13 expecting it to be terrible and simple, and I found that I actually still liked it so I decided to make this list!! Recommendations are welcome, this will be a running list xx

Books that are either about or heavily feature everyone's favourite mythical beast: the mighty dragon

Every book in the Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sutherland

Dragons, Wyrms and all those other fire-breathing creepy crawlies! Even if not all the dragons in these books breathe fire in the first place (only the first book of a series is added to this list)

Books for those obsessed with dragons. For series, only the first book is listed.

Series and books that feature animal MCs, of varying target audience age. There is a lean toward fantasy, as that is what I read, but I tried to include a number of other fiction titles with animal characters as well.

note i have not read all of the books, so some may be wrong

The first books in other series as well as standalones that all the authors and illustrators under Erin Hunter have written in their own names.

Missing many standalone novels & works from universes not of their own creations (Like Marvel & DC) for now since there are sooo many (and I'm tired), but I will add them in the future whenever I feel like it.

*James L. Barry is not on this list because he currently only has online comics, nothing besides Warriors is published **Gillian Philip is not in this list due supporting J.K. Rowling (and thus being kicked out of the Erin Hunter team)

Read pls really good

Books with dragons

Peak childhood. I still read middle grade stuff to experience wonder.
