Description
The New York Times and USA Today bestselling series soars to even greater heights with a new prophecy and five new dragonets ready to claim their destiny!Peril has been loyal to Queen Scarlet, who used her fatal firescales to kill countless dragons in the SkyWing arena. Now, Peril is loyal to Clay, the only dragonet who has ever been her friend. So when Scarlet threatens Jade Mountain Academy, Peril sets off to find her former queen, stop her, and save the day, no matter what it takes.There's just one problem: a strangely persistent SeaWing, Turtle, insists on coming along, too. Turtle is worried about his friends, who left to search for Scarlet and haven't returned. Peril is worried that she might accidentally burn Turtle -- or burn him on purpose, for being so annoying -- and frustrated that she keeps saying and doing the wrong things. She can't escape her firescales, and she can't escape her reputation as the deadliest dragon in Pyrrhia.So when she's offered a chance to trade everything for a new life, Peril has to decide who she's really loyal to . . . and whether her own scales might actually be worth saving.

In these epic animal fantasies featuring anthropomorphic cats (Warriors) and dragons (Wings of Fire), different clans are at war. Each features fierce battle scenes, initially reluctant heroes, world-building mythology, and prophecies that must be fulfilled. -- Lindsey Dunn
Humans inhabit a much more centralized role in the suspenseful Dragon Realm series, while the plot-driven Wings of Fire focuses on the perspectives of dragons, but both fast-paced series will draw readers who enjoy adventurous stories starring fire-breathing creatures. -- Basia Wilson
Though Storm Dragons features a human protagonist and Wings of Fire stars only dragons, these plot-driven fantasy series follow brave warriors who fight for the future of their kingdoms. -- Stephen Ashley
The fate of the world is in the hands of the dragons in each of these plot-driven, action-packed fantasy series. While Dragon Rider is funnier, and Wings of Fire veers more toward violence, both blend adventure with magical worlds. -- Lindsey Dunn
Readers looking for a fast-paced fantasy focused on dragons should sink their claws into these series. Wings of Fire stars dragons caught up in a mysterious prophecy, while Battle Dragons follows a human who dreams of riding the winged creatures. -- Stephen Ashley
Though Foxcraft's vulpine heroes bear closer resemblance to creatures from our world than the dragon protagonists of Wings of Fire, both of these plot-driven fantasy series feature shifting loyalties, surprising magic, and plenty of action. -- Stephen Ashley
Magical creatures (anthropomorphic frogs in Kulipari and dragons in Wings of Fire) discover that they alone possess the power to take on an insidious evil in these plot-driven fantasy series. -- Stephen Ashley
Though the beaver-led, Scotland-set Secrets of Glendunny is slightly more grounded in reality than the magical Wings of Fire, both of these intricately world-built fantasies follow tough anthropomorphic creatures who fight to protect their worlds from harm. -- Stephen Ashley
These series have the appeal factors fast-paced and plot-driven, and they have the theme "chosen one"; the genre "fantasy fiction"; and the subjects "dragons," "prophecies," and "imaginary kingdoms."

Horn Book Review
In book eight, dragon Peril's temper is as quick to burn as her deadly scales. She seeks to redeem her reputation by taking out the queen who once used her as a killer and discovers family along the way. Some humor and accessible contemporary dialogue temper the epic-fantasy setting while the hotheaded dragon navigates many dramas on her quest for vengeance. (c) Copyright 2017.
