Eona: The Last Dragoneye
Alison Goodman
About this book
Read Alison Goodman's blogs and other content on the Penguin Community. Eon has been revealed as Eona, the first female Dragoneye in hundreds of years. Along with fellow rebels Ryko and Lady Dela, she is on the run from High Lord Sethon's army. The renegades are on a quest for the black folio, stolen by the drug-riddled Dillon; they must also find Kygo, the young Pearl Emperor, who needs Eona's power and the black folio if he is to wrest back his throne from the selfstyled "Emperor" Sethon. Through it all, Eona must come to terms with her new Dragoneye identity and power - and learn to bear the anguish of the ten dragons whose Dragoneyes were murdered. As they focus their power through her, she becomes a dangerous conduit for their plans. . . . Eona, with its pulse-pounding drama and romance, its unforgettable fight scenes, and its surprises, is the conclusion to an epic only Alison Goodman could create.
Censorship history
In 2025, "Eona: The Last Dragoneye" was banned in several school districts across the United States due to its LGBTQ+ content, political themes, and depictions of violence. Notably, the book faced challenges from local Parent-Teacher Associations (PTAs) and school board meetings in states like Texas and Florida, where formal complaints led to votes for its removal from school libraries. The bans were upheld in some districts, while other challenges are still contested in ongoing debates about educational content and censorship.
