Eon By Alison Goodman
Currently I am reading Eon by Alison Goodman. It is about a girl pretending to be a boy so that she can compete to be chosen by the Rat Dragon. There is a dragon for every sign of the zodiac. If I was in the book I would be worshiping the Pig Dragon, but the book isn't about me. Every 12 years candidates become apprentices, apprentices become Dragoneyes, and Dragoneyes become retired. If you are a Dragoneye your Hua, or soul, becomes drained as you live. So, by the time that your 12 years are up you will look like you have aged way beyond 12 years. Right now I am at a point where the reader finds out if Eon becomes the apprentice. So far I am enjoying the book, but some of the terms they use are kind of confusing. As I read further I will continue to post and keep you updated.

It sounds like a very interesting fantasy book. Has this author written any other books?
She also wrote a sequel to this book. It is called Eona. Besides that I don't know.
