'''The Dragon Keeper''' is part one of [[Rain Wild Chronicles]]. It was originally meant to be a standalone book. When the manuscript grew too large to be a single book, it was split into two parts that were then published as "The Dragon Keeper" and [[Dragon Haven]]. A later sequel met with the same fate and was published as [[City of Dragons]] and [[Blood of Dragons]], making the chronicles a four volume series.<ref>http://fantasy-faction.com/2013/robin-hobb-interview Fantasy faction Robin Hobb interview</ref>
The story takes place in the [[Rain Wilds]] and [[Bingtown]] some time after the events in [[Ship of Magic]] and [[Fool's Fate]]. Like the [[Liveship Traders trilogy|Liveship Traders]], the story is told in third person. The viewpoint characters are [[Thymara]], [[Alise Kincarron]], [[Sisarqua]]/[[Sintara]], [[Leftrin]] and [[Sedric Meldar]]. Notes sent between two [[Keeper of the Birds|Keepers of the Birds]], [[Erek]] and [[Detozi]] are set between each chapter of the book.
