FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description A thrilling new series soars above the competition and redefines middle-grade fantasy fiction for a new generationThe 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 . . . Author Biography Tui T. Sutherland is named after a rather noisy New Zealand bird. She loves lost civilizations and postapocalyptic stories, and she has recurring end-of-the-world dreams (perhaps a side effect of being a "Buffy" fan!). Tui was born in Caracas, Venezuela, and lived all over the world before ending up in Boston, where she now resides with her husband and her dog, whose superpowers include hiding half-chewed things in the couch and woofing at noises no one else can hear. Tui is also the author of the first two books in the Avatars trilogy as well as "This Must Be Love". Prizes Short-listed for Massachusetts Childrens Book Award 2015 Review Quote Praise for Wings of Fire Book One: The Dragonet Prophecy "Dramatic battle scenes, double cross, and one seriously deranged queen makes Wings of Fire a series that should have broad appeal for middle-grade fantasy fans." -- Booklist "Fast-paced and detailed...This first outing has all the key ingredients for a successful formula-fantasy series." -- Kirkus Excerpt from Book "Leave?" Clay echoed, startled. "How? On our own?""Why not?" Tsunami said. "If we can find a way out--why should we have to wait another two years? Im ready to save the world now, arent you?""We cant stop the war by ourselves," Clay said. "We wouldnt know where to start."Still, part of him couldnt help imagining what it would be like to go home now. Back to the marshes, to the swamps, to a whole tribe of MudWings who looked like him and thought like him...back to his parents, whoever they were . . .What if they could do it? What if they could escape, and survive, and save the world . . . their own way? Details ISBN0545349184 Author Tui T.
