Tooth and Claw is a fantasy novel written by Jo Walton and published by Tor Books on November 1, 2003. It won the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel in 2004.
The book's plot is similar to that of a Victorian romance – specifically, Anthony Trollope's novel Framley Parsonage – with the obvious difference that the protagonists are not human beings but dragons. The novel begins with the death of the patriarch of a family of dragons and follows the lives of his children, along with other characters.
