Dragons Within: Claiming Her Wings
“In a world full of princesses, always be a dragon.”
A disillusioned demon hunter runs from her power.
A deposed queen must consider the consequences of reclaiming her throne.
A special agent faces the flames of injustice in a gut-wrenching trial.
A medical mystery turns into a pursuit of dragons—across space and time.
Welcome to Dragons Within: a fiery, quick-paced collection of stories featuring twelve women with dragon-like traits who hold untapped magic and power within. Some are full-blooded dragons, while others are simply human—but each carries the spirit of a dragon. Bringing together the fantastical and the mundane, the unique stories in this anthology span a wide range, from trial by magic and first encounters between human and dragon—to facing writer’s block and harnessing the power of language.
A little girl navigates bullying, grief, and fair-weather friends while learning to embrace her inner dragon. A fashionista hunts for a one-of-a-kind piece to display in her closet. An encounter with mystical horse-like beings awakens a former rodeo star’s true magic. The spirit of a dragon shines forth during a mother’s grueling battle with cancer.
Thoughtfully crafted by twelve new and emerging speculative fiction authors, these stories create a broad, limitless sky where individuals embrace their personal magic and rise. In the face of self-doubt, cunning, and fear, the women in Dragons Within must vanquish both inner and outer foes . . .
claim their wings—and fly.

Dragons Within: Claiming Her Wings an anthology by Balance of Seven is about believing in yourself, knowing your strengths and at the hardest times shining bright and spreading those wings to fly high.
Sometime all times are bleak or those incharge don't understand that to walk they have to let you go. Sometimes doing what is right only gets seen through fuzzy vision of others. This book shows how 12 ladies stand tall and get things done. This book is definitely a book to share with loved ones and a great reread.

Okay, so I absolutely adored this collection of stories about twelve of the fiercest women I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading about. Some of these women are dragons, while others have dragon like traits, but they’re all strong and powerful in their own way. I especially loved the different kinds of dragons in this collection, the different types of hoards, powers, etc. It was an absolute pleasure to read this, and I know I will be rereading in the future! Go get your copy now!!!
