Dragon Pearl is a middle grade novel written by Yoon Ha Lee and published on January 15, 2019, by Disney Hyperion under their "Rick Riordan Presents" publishing imprint.[1] The book is a mix of Korean mythology and science fiction as the main character travels the galaxy.[2][3] A short story by Lee about the characters in the book was featured in the anthology book The Cursed Carnival and Other Calamities.[4]
