The dragon descriptions at the start of the My 9 year old grandson and I are reading this series together, and I just finished this first one. A prophecy has said that five dragonets will save the world from this war, so their protectors, the Talons of Peace, begin to gather the eggs. He LOVES dragons, so I was a bit worried when I read the prologue and learned the series deals with wars among the dragons! However, as soon as I met Clay, the Mudwing, I knew why he is enjoying this series so much. My 9 year old grandson and I are reading this series together, and I just finished this first one. If you don't like it so far, then you probably won't like the rest of the book, but if you find some interest, then continue reading.
But if you don't like it that's okay, as everyone has opinions. The plot is diverse and really makes it feel as if you are right with the characters, watching everything happen. I personally think the Wings of Fire series is very well worth reading, and is even better than the Warriors series. I'd add more to my argument but then I'd be spoiling the books. The first series does revolve around it, but it's not the only thing used to drive the plot forward. The prophecy isn't a "plot device" per say. Sunny and Clay are the optimists of the group and are trying to keep the peace, so they don't complain and try to see the bright side of things, while Starflight is the stereotypical "nerdy coward" who is too afraid to put any input to anything. Sunny the SandWing, Clay the MudWing (the protagonist of The Dragonet Prophecy), and Starflight the NightWing don't really appreciate the fact that they were raised under a mountain by the Talons for the first six years of their life (an equivalent to about seventeen years in human years since dragons age faster), but they don't openly complain about the Talons. The Dragonets of Destiny, the protagonists of the first series, act rude and rebellious to their "caretakers", the Talons of Peace, who, contrary to their name, quite dislike the dragonets of destiny and at one point end up chaining Tsunami the SeaWing and make plans to kill Glory the RainWing as the original prophecy didn't call for a RainWing.īut it's only Glory and Tsunami who act rude and rebellious to the Talons. But that's just my opinion, anyway.īesides that, the characters are quite diverse and likable. They may not be realistic enough but they give enough insight as to what's inside the book. I think the covers look wonderful and vibrant. They may not be realistic enough but they give enough insight as to what's inside the boo …more That's funny. And when the select five escape their underground captors to look for their original homes, what has been unleashed on the dragon world may be far more than the revolutionary planners intended.
