Moon Rising (Wings of Fire, Book 6)

Ohmygosh I love this book! New prophecy! New school! New dragonets! New mysteries! New adventures! NEW NIGHTWINGS WITH POWERS!!😆 Moon Rising is so epically awesome. I had to stay up all night to read it. Twice. Moonwatcher is so cute and shy, but then I like how she becomes so much more brave and awesome toward the end. And am I going crazy, or is Winter in love with Moon?!For all of you who have not read the book yet, it starts with a NightWing dragonet hatching under two full moons. That dragonet is Moonwatcher, and she can read minds and has the gift of prophecy. The previous 'dragonets of destiny' (Sunny, Starflight, Tsunami, and Clay) have started a school underneath Jade Mountain. Moon is one of the dragons that has been accepted as a student there, and she is really quiet and secretive and shy and can read minds and is slightly adorable. In her first day there, she hears something new; a dragon who can speak back to her. However, he is only in her mind, not at the school, and he is actually a five thousand year old animus dragon. Moon begins to make friends at the school, all the while learning more about the Darkstalker, a.k.a. the mysterious animus who speaks to Moon. She learns that there is a student who is conspiring with QUEEN SCARLET and is planning a murder. A few days later, Moon gets a vision of the history cave exploding and her friends dying. She barely manages to convince them not to go in the cave, but in the explosion, 2 dragons still die, and those who didn't are very suspicious of how she knew. She finally tells them about her powers, and they get mad at her and freaked out and worried and storm off in a huff. One of those friends, Qibli, (yes, Thorn's 'guard') forgives her and tells her she should use her powers to find the dragon who set the fire.I can't tell anymore without revealing every single secret I'm the entire book

My Thoughts: To be honest, my brother wasn't a big fan of the new books in the Wings of Fire series (Winter Turning, Moon Rising, etc). However, I really enjoy them, although I miss some older characters like Tsunami (who still is in the book for a couple scenes) and Sunny. Glory is in this series a lot more, being the queen of the Rain and NightWings.Moonwatcher (aka Moon) is an amazing character - everything was spot on and fit her perfectly. Quiet, intrigued, curious, wary, friendly - so many things rolled into one, yet they all came together to make Moon, Moon. Winter, Qibli, and Carnelian fascinated me. Plus, it was really interesting seeing Moon's perspective on their thoughts, and how she reacts to them in their sort-of friendship. Kinkajou, as always, was awesome :), as were all the other old characters.I can't go on enough about this writing - easy, speculative, more in the back of your mind so that you focus on the story, making this book devoid of dullness. Sutherland does a very good job of making me want to know more - the mystery is always something I look forward to in this series. The author eases you into it, giving away little clues at a time until you realize what happened, either a split second before or after the characters in the book. Either way, this technique makes you cheer for Moon and her friends during the fire/explosion scene (also with the Icicle scene and Starflight).Of course, I HAVE to add in a part about Darkstalker. DARKSTALKER. Ugh! I can't tell what's up with him - why are you doing this to me, Tui T. Sutherland? The worst part is that Darkstalker isn't in the book that much in Winter Turning, leaving us on a sort-of cliffhanger. At times, Darkstalker seems kind, funny - similar to Deathbringer - but others, you can tell he's lying to Moon. He seems manipulative, yet at the same time, caring - but then you wonder, is he just caring about Moon because she's the only one that can free him?Overall, I just love this series, and can't wait to read more!

The next chapter in an amazing and engaging series. My daughter loves this series so much. She has re-read the books so much they have started to physically fall apart so I have begun to get hardback editions for her instead.The book arrived as promised and well packaged. The binding is tight and solid.I did not read it my self but will ask my daughter about it for purposes of this review.(NOTE: she read it cover to cover in one day)I asked her to tell me about the book and translated for purposes of this review.Moon Rising introduces powers not seen in one of the dragon tribes for generations and it leads to a great adventure. It introduces several new characters, a new prophecy, and an amazing story full of adventure, secrets, and danger.The dragon tribes are at peace at last but in the shadows, hidden from all eyes a mysterious dragon awaits and he could lead to great destruction or a great future.Just like in the other books there are unexpected twists and turns which make this series so much fun to read.I really like this book. I think you will really like it and should read all of the Wings of Fire books.I read them so fast and can't wait for the next book to come out.
