About this book
If given the choice between dragons and men, I would choose the dragon every time. Cast out and forgotten after becoming an unseer, Princess Asha’s life changes when she inherits three long-lost dragon eggs—making her the most dangerous woman in the empire. To uncover their secrets, she must join forces with a rival prince who wants the eggs… and her. Princess Asha has always defied the brutal expectations of her warrior empire. When a life-altering injury shatters her vision and her future in the Ujuima military, she’s cast into the dragon pits. Her world is further upended when she inherits three dragon eggs. Dragon eggs have not been seen in centuries, making Asha's possession of them dangerous. In a desperate attempt to unravel the secrets of the eggs, she joins forces with Adriel, a prince from another kingdom who also desires the dragon eggs for his own purposes. As they journey together, Asha forms an unlikely connection with Drakkar, a dragon who holds the key to locating other dragons in the northern mountains. In a world where worth is determined by how well one fits into society’s narrow mold, Asha faces a pivotal choice: Embrace the power that lies within her, or yield to what others believe she can or cannot become?

What readers are saying
Jordan ChauvinDragons and a string FMC, yes please!
"Read this book if you love a fierce FMC who not only charges into adventure without hesitation, but does so as a devoted dragon rider. Despite everything she’s endured, she holds onto a resilient, hopeful outlook that makes her impossible not to root for. The story centers around her dangerous mission to return three precious dragon eggs to their home so they can hatch safely, a quest filled with heart, courage, and high stakes. Dragon Blind is captivating and sharply written, and I’m already counting down the days until book two. An incredible debut from Dr. Iman! ["

Tara Hannagreat representation
"Dragon Blind was recommended to me directly by the author after we connected on TikTok and had a meaningful conversation about ways people who look like me can learn more about the experiences of POC—especially when we aren’t immersed in those spaces day to day. She encouraged reading stories written by POC and about POC, and after that conversation, I preordered her book. The story centers on a Black blind woman, and yes—there are dragons (they make their appearance around the 60% mark). The magical world was immersive and refreshingly different from the traditional fantasy settings I’m used to. It felt thoughtful and intentional. I truly enjoyed the unique twist on magic, representation, and world-building, and I would absolutely recommend Dragon Blind to anyone looking for a fantasy read that offers both imagination and perspective.
