Moon Rising by Tui T. Sutherland
5.0
Star Rating: 5 stars
Note: This will not be an in-depth review as this is the 6th book in the Wings of Fire series.
Because I was curious about what the new prophecy was going to be and who the dragons fulfilling were going to be like, I decided to pick up book 6 of the Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sutherland called Moon Rising. It tells the story of the dragons that make up the Jade Winglet of Jade Mountain Academy- the IceWing Winter, the MudWing Umber, the NightWing Moonwatcher (Moon), the RainWing Kinkajou, the SandWing Qibli, the SeaWing Turtle, and the SkyWing Carnelian. As previously mentioned, they are all students at Jade Mountain Academy, which is a school that was created after the events of the previous 5 books, which I won’t spoil. Moon has the, according to her, curse of being able to see the future and read minds, which used to be prevalent powers amongst the NightWings, however, those powers have pretty much become nonexistent in present times. After she comes to the Academy, she starts to communicate with another telepath (which she thinks is another student) and see visions of the mountains collapsing with all the students and teachers trapped inside. These conversions and visions lead to her going on all sorts of adventures by herself and with her friends.
I found this prophecy and the dragons involved so much interesting than the 1st prophecy. The potential new villain is cunning and much more intimating than the 1st one, which as an older reader, was very enjoyable for me. Also, I really liked the Academy idea and thought it was a great direction to take the series in. Finally, I loved how we were able to learn more about the dragon world and its history because of the classes at the school and our new villain.
All in all, this is a wonderful installment to the Wings of Fire series, and it makes me excited to see what happens in the rest of the series. I think it was one of the best ones yet!!!!! 5 stars!!!!!!!
