EARNED A ACCI  FICTION-LITERARY AWARD AND A BOOKY AWARD FOR MOST HONEST GRIEF along with a 5-Star Editorial Review from Reader Views.

A veteran reborn. A dragon queen waiting. A world that needs riders again.

She never expected to become a Dragon Rider. But in Jubrozan, leadership isn’t given – it’s survived. When ancient forces rise, she must choose between tradition, truth, and survival.

Kristy London dies in a hospital bed on Earth and wakes in Jubrozan with a new body, a new name, and her loyal dog Kula still beside her.

Now called Rani, she learns from Sephira, Queen Mother of the Dragons, that the gods of this world brought her here for a reason. The dragon riders of Jubrozan were wiped out by plague generations ago, leaving keeps empty, eggs silent, and one ancient dragon to guard what remained.

But the Proving Sands are stirring.

New dragons are ready to hatch, and new riders must be trained before the corruption that once destroyed the old bonds rises again. Rani has spent a lifetime surviving war, grief, and responsibility. Now she must use all of it to rebuild what Jubrozan lost.

Jubrozan Dragon Riders is a sweeping fantasy adventure filled with dragons, second chances, chosen family, and the courage to answer a mission you never expected.

Perfect for fans of Anne McCaffrey’s Dragonriders of Pern and Christopher Paolini’s Eragon, with courageous riders, powerful dragons, and a young woman searching for where she belongs.

Jubrozan Dragon Riders by Karen L. West is a compelling blend of epic fantasy and emotional character-driven storytelling. The novel follows Kristy London, a seventy-five-year-old veteran reborn as Rani in a world of dragons.

Jubrozan Dragon Riders by Karen L West immediately hooked me with the opening scene in which Rani awakens beneath a carved stone dome after dying in a VA hospital, only to find her loyal Belgian Malinois, Kula, waiting beside her.

What caught me right from Chapter 1 was the sheer emotional weight of the main character, Kristy/Rani, who bring her 75 years of real-world experience, trauma, and devastating grief to the table.

Jubrozan Dragon Riders offers a refreshing take on the dragon-rider genre by giving readers an unlikely but compelling heroine. Kristy London begins the story as a seventy-five-year-old veteran at the end of her life before awakening in Jubrozan as Rani.

I really went through, Jubrozan Dragon Riders, and I absolutely loved the story. The concept of Kristy London, a 75-year-old army veteran fading on Earth, being reborn as Rani on the alien world of Jubrozan is a masterclass in portal fantasy.

Oh Besties… imagine passing away at 75 only to wake up young again in another world where you’re expected to rebuild an entire generation of DRAGON RIDERS. 😳 Ma’am barely got her new body and already has a JOB!
