Themes of kindness, friendship, family (found and born)

A magical prophecy, some dragon kids stumbling through an intertribal war, plenty of adventure, violence and questing with heavy worldbuilding and vibrant characters.

This was a fairly decent middle grade fantasy. I didn't enjoy it as much as I have some other middle grade sci fi/fantasy books I've read in recent years, but then again I'm also definitely not the target audience here and I know this would have been something I enjoyed immensely as a kid. It has a similar level of violence to the Warriors series (which is unsurprising, as the author was part of the Erin Hunter team), and sets the tone of the book pretty well right from the prologue. I am interested to see where this series goes.
