Great

Bought this for a birthday gift for a 10 yr old. She was excited to keep reading the series

The idea of a dragon who doesn’t want to be a hero that is put in a position where he has to be one is a great opposite to Sunny in her book, a dragon who didn’t have to be a hero yet becomes one regardless of her own will. This book has one crucial reveal that is so well done, it may make you gasp as you read. The reveal is not a random plot device, but makes sense with Turtle’s personality of wanting to be invisible and in the background. This is a great, suspenseful read and encouraging to any introverts or people that tend to blend into the background. It makes you feel like no matter what your fears or personality, you can make a difference and be brave.

The designers mature, the bond and battle. very dark stories for 8 year olds. and the story continues. I'll keep read ing.

He loves this series.

This was a good continuation of the Wings of Fire series. The book was easy to read and progresses into the next part of the Darkstalker story arc. There was a stand alone Darkstalker book released that explains Darkstalker’s history and it would be helpful to read that book before reading this one. I continue to read this series mostly because my 10 year old son enjoys it so much; I have also become somewhat attached to these dragons myself.This continues the storyline with Darkstalker's awakening and really focuses on animus dragons. The story is told from Turtle’s perspective; he is a SeaWing dragon that is an animus in secret. He alone seems to be immune to Darkstalker’s charm and it is up to him to discern what Darkstalker is really up to.There isn't a lot resolved in this story, it is basically just the start of another broad storyline involving Darkstalker and his efforts to rebuild the Nightwing Clan and gain the trust of the other Dragon Clans. We learn some more about Turtle’s history and past, but honestly not a ton happens in here. Mostly this book seems to be setting up the story for more excitement in future books. There is a sense of doom over the whole story as you are just waiting for things to go really wrong in the next book.Overall this was a good continuation of this series. I liked learning more about animus dragons and it was interesting to see things from Turtle's perspective. However I felt like this was a very short book and not a lot actually happened in here. I am curious to see what this book builds to as the series continues. Recommended to fans of the Wings of Fire series.

It was a gift and the little girl loved it😍
