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 . . .

I LOVE WINGS OF FIRE SUPER MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!
Clay, a dragonet destined for greatness, has been trapped underground his entire life, but all that changes when he and his four friends are forced to escape the only home they ever knew. He has to get out of sticky situations, rescue others, and starts an unlikely and cautious friendship with a dragon no one has ever given a chance. This is a great fantasy book for any dragon lover, full of action, plot twists, and laughs.
You've been raised, along with 4 other dragonets, your whole life. It is the only thing you've ever known. Your keepers are not your parents, but other, more gruff dragons - they teach you to fight and that someday you will have a destiny to fulfill as part of a prophecy. You never see the sky, and your keepers are harsh - and sometimes even cruel. After learning that one of you is considered less-than-worthy for the prophecy and is to be killed, you band together with the other four dragonets - the only true family you have ever known - and plot an escape. Problem is, you have escaped from the frying pan into the fire of war in the outer world. Survival will be a test of all you've learned and all you want to be. I got this book to read, because I generally enjoy books about dragons, which interest me. I got to it, finished it in a couple of days, and was anxious to re-read it. I was fascinated with the guide in the front of the book that has drawings of each different kind of dragon, as well as information about them - I would think that was one of my favorite things. I also really liked the book because of how the story all fit together. The story might start off a little bit slow, but it picks up speed fairly quickly. Wings of Fire appears to be the first book in a series for middle-graders. It's a little young to be considered Young Adult, and is certainly not elementary. While it would be good for reading out loud, there is some violence and a few descriptions of the aftermath of war that might bother the younger set. There is a definite resolution, while still being apparent that there is more to come. I plan on giving the book 5 stars. I will be looking forward to reading the sequel!
