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 . . .

the book was really good I enjoyed it 3 stars
This book as well as the others in the sires are very detailed. One things that it is scary and a little bit sad.
Get involved in the astounding and magical adventure of the dragonets as they save the day! Wings of Fire is a series of books about the world of dragons getting in chaos. The chosen dragons told by the Dragonet Prophecy were Clay, Tsunami, Glory, Sunny, and Starflight. This book was recommended by my friends Michelle and Natasha. I honestly wasn’t interested at first, but I was hooked in after I started reading it! There are humorous conversations, thrilling adventure, as well as thoughts on life that are actually considerate. The five dragons had different feelings about being chosen. One of them thought destiny is destiny, so whatever they do must be right. However, I didn’t really agree about it since I think we could be the ones that seize and change our destiny and there’re a lot of things in life that are simply just a decision. Read this book and get sucked into it! I can’t wait to read the second book! :))
sunny, sorry but Glory is not part of the Dragonet Prophecy. She just replaced the Skywing dragonet because it died.
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.)
I have not read this yet but it sounds good! My neighborhood friend is reading it right now, maybe I should borrow it!
i totally like this book
I have read books one through eight, I totally loved the books.
It was really good, and i would recommended it to anyone who likes dragons.
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.
