''Dragon's Winter'' is a HighFantasy by World Fantasy Award-winning author Elizabeth A. Lynn. The story revolves around twin brothers, Karadur and Tenjiro, sons of the dragon lord of Ippa. Karadur is a dragon-child like his father, but Tenjiro is as human as their mother...and jealous of his elder brother. When Karadur grows to manhood, Tenjiro leaves their home to study magic. But the only power he desires is his brother's, and so Tenjiro betrays his brother, binding his power and preventing him from taking his dragon form.
Meanwhile, a man called Wolf arrives in the nearby village of Sleeth. The winters of Ippa grow longer and colder than any can remember. And rumors from the north speak of a strange Black Citadel risen from the earth, and with it terrible creatures from the oldest of legends. From the north, monsters appear - threatening soldiers and villagers alike - and Karadur is left with no choice but to ride to war against his brother.

Like many of Lynn's previous works, the Dragon series contains [[QueerRomance representation]] of non-heterosexual relationships, in this case between the main character Karadur and his best friend Azil. While it could be considered HomoeroticSubtext in the first book, there is blatant confirmation in ''Dragon's Treasure'', in which Azil describes Karadur as his lover while they lie in bed together. [[HomophobiaIndex For some reason]], marketing of the books tends to focus on the conflict between Karadur and his brother (for the first book) and the romance with his [[ChosenConceptionPartner female love interest]] (for the second book), at the expense of the equally important subplot of Karadur and Azil's relationship.
