A book for readers in grades 4 and up reviewed by Carlos
Wings of Fire: The Dragonet Prophecy takes
place in a fantasy kingdom called Pyrrhia. The land has seven dragon
tribes: MudWings, SandWings, IceWings, RainWings, SeaWings, SkyWings, and NightWings.
Each dragon tribe is ruled by a queen.
When a human murders the SandWing queen, her three daughters go to
war fighting to become queen. This war involves five dragon tribes. But,
according to a prophecy, five dragonets from different tribes are destined to
stop the war.
Clay is one of the five dragonets destined to stop the war. However,
he doesn’t feel like a hero and has doubts, especially considering he and the other dragonets mentioned in the prophecy have
lived underground their entire lives.
Wings of Fire: The Dragonet Prophecy is special to me because it led me to develop a reading hobby. I liked the book’s characters and their different personalities. It was refreshing to have a story where all of the characters are dragons. I found the book’s message about choosing your own destiny to be unique and special.
