Rose
by Jeff Smith (Author) Charles Vess (Illustrator)
In the old days, when Bone's Gran'ma Ben was a teenager, a terrifying dragon laid siege to the small towns of the Northern Valley. Unknown to Princess Rose (young Gran'ma Ben), the strange dragon is actually the minion of the Ancient Enemy called the Lord of the Locust. Unable to defeat the monster, Rose seeks the advice of her advisor, who tells the young princess how to destroy the dragon—but at a terrible cost.
Rose is a prequel book to the Bone series.
