A thrilling new series soars above the competition and redefines middle-grade fantasy fiction for a new generation!
The seven dragon tribes have been at war for generations, locked in an endless battle over an ancient, lost treasure. A secret movement called the Talons of Peace is determined to bring an end to the fighting, with the help of a prophecy -- a foretelling that calls for great sacrifice.
Five dragonets are collected to fulfill the prophecy, raised in a hidden cave and enlisted, against their will, to end the terrible war.
But not every dragonet wants a destiny. 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 . . .

This is my favorite book series EVER! I really wish they'd make a movie of the books. (Not anyone but Universal, otherwise they'd mutilate it) It has betrayal, battles, war, queens, friendship, romance, action, jokes, Hunger Games-style arena warfare, prophecies, secrets, and characters you love (Hello, DoD, and you too, Jade Winglet. Also Darkstalker, Deathbringer, and Riptide. 'Cuz they're too awesome) and characters you'll hate. (coughcough Scarlet, Morrowseer, Blister, and Burn cough) I can not believe that Warriors is more popular than this. I mean, Warriors is okay, but it kind of "lost the magic," by the time the second series rolled around. This one is still going strong. And it has DRAGONS! Not to mention, when I reread Warriors, I thought "I read this in the second grade?" (When I was in 2nd grade, I was OBSESSED with Warriors. I don't really recall why.) Long story short: 2nd grade. Bedtime. Couldn't get to sleep. Pulled out A Dangerous Path. Mom made a 'no Warriors at bedtime' rule after that. (What? Those dogs were scary as heck.) Now, this does have some violence. (Mostly in the first book, because, hey, when much of the plot revolves around an arena where dragons fight to the death, not everyone's gonna make it out alive) But unlike Warriors, you usually won't be lying awake at night because you're afraid to go to sleep. (Though I did have a couple of nightmares about these once.) All in all, this series is five stars out of five!!!!! (For age rating, I would read this to a MATURE 3rd grader and up. Don't read it to younger kids unless you know them well and they are very hardy. I mean, like, 2nd grade. Don't read these to kindergartners. They probably wouldn't get it anyway.)
A must read. The dragon world of Pyrrhia is at war, and five dragonets are chosen to stop it. Stolen from their homes as eggs, the dragonets live underground, hidden far away from the world that they only know about from stories. After the life of one of them is threatened, they may have to decide whether to follow the prophecy that brought them together, or to escape the underground prison that has kept them their whole lives.

If you like fire and dragons this is the book for you! This Wings of Fire book is awesome!
The Dragon's world is in chaos, while Burn, Blister, and Blaze is fighting for the crown.Some dragonets are then known as the "chosen one" and was raised carefully.Clay and his friends have grown up under a mountain to fulfill a mysterious prophecy. The five young dragons are destined to end the war that's been raging between the tribes of Pyrrhia.Clay and his friends gets into trouble every time they try to do something by themselves, but always end up in a bad situation. This book was recommended by @michellek21. I was once told that this book is really interesting, and I started reading it once I got them. Inside the book, there are some funny parts like "where is the scavenger? I thought the scavenger is a creature that stands on two feet. Well, that seems unstable for me.". The funny thing is that, the dragons are actually talking about humans! That's what made the book interesting -- jokes that all readers would understand. Also, the author creates interesting characters, even though they are completely different creatures than what we are, and yet there are no such creatures. Tui T. Sutherland used his great imagination and wrote the awesome book. As soon as this month ends, I will definitely start reading the second book!
