Another solid entry into the Wings of Fire series. The worst part is always waiting for the next one. I'm particularly glad to see a same-sex dragon relationship. Recommended for grades 4 & up. You really need to read this series in order.

Sundew is a great character. I love watching her navigate through moral dilemma. She's been raised knowing the injustices placed upon her people and grew up angry with justice as her guide. However as she befriends those from other tribes her views begin to change.
Is it better to fight than run? Should the persecuted demand justice on those innocents who have benefited from others wrong doings? Can you truly win a war?

I've been reading this series to the kids during the pandemic. This one came back and saved the storyline a bit - Blue's story felt so flat and dull - kind of like his character. Cricket's story didn't really move me much either - I'm not certain why.
I surprisingly loved the books on the other continent. But these Pantala dragons' story arcs/personalities and evolutions didn't happen for me. However, I did feel a little more character evolution with Sundew. We laughed so much in the books 1-10. Funny characters and storylines. These books - I just don't find us laughing or feeling riveted to find out what happens next. I will say I loved the jungle and the plant speak powers and how they had to reckon with the mistakes of the past. So this one brings it a bit back though I wish Willow had more of a backbone and that Tsunami sounded more like herself. I didn't even recognize her in this story which was a shame because I would've loved to see her interact in the way her personality should have.

THE PROMISED LESBIANS. AT LAST
also WOW so much has happened those TWISTS

Well, we started reading these books almost 11 months ago and have caught up. Now we have to wait until MARCH for the next book. Sigh. This being the middle book of the 3rd arc it does not end in a happy place. Things are bad, very, very bad for the dragons of Pantala (and probably soon for the dragons of Pyrria).
This book also has the first LGBTQ+ protagonist (there are LGBTQ+ secondary characters in other books). One of the great things about this is that it was presented in actually the same way as the other protagonists. There was no angst about Sundew being in a same-sex relationship and Willow is wonderful.
