Talons of Power

My son was very disappointed that the author wrote in a female dragon having more than a crush on another female dragon. Very disappointing. This is a kids book. The agenda being pushed is not appreciated.

No words can explain how I am feeling! The ending was such a surprise, that when the last book comes out, I don’t even know how much drama there will be! I definitely recommend this book for animal and action book lovers. Definitely buy this. It’s a must read. Can’t wait to see what happens in the final book!

This was a good continuation of the Wings of Fire series. The book was easy to read and progresses into the next part of the Darkstalker story arc. There was a stand alone Darkstalker book released that explains Darkstalkers history and it would be helpful to read that book before reading this one. I continue to read this series mostly because my 10 year old son enjoys it so much; I have also become somewhat attached to these dragons myself.

This continues the storyline with Darkstalker’s awakening and really focuses on animus dragons. The story is told from Turtles perspective; he is a SeaWing dragon that is an animus in secret. He alone seems to be immune to Darkstalkers charm and it is up to him to discern what Darkstalker is really up to.

There isn’t a lot resolved in this story, it is basically just the start of another broad storyline involving Darkstalker and his efforts to rebuild the Nightwing Clan and gain the trust of the other Dragon Clans. We learn some more about Turtles history and past, but honestly not a ton happens in here. Mostly this book seems to be setting up the story for more excitement in future books. There is a sense of doom over the whole story as you are just waiting for things to go really wrong in the next book.

Overall this was a good continuation of this series. I liked learning more about animus dragons and it was interesting to see things from Turtle’s perspective. However I felt like this was a very short book and not a lot actually happened in here. I am curious to see what this book builds to as the series continues. Recommended to fans of the Wings of Fire series.

This book has everything I expected, and more! While I can’t say I approve of the ending, everything else was great. At first I was a little wary of Turtle. He was afraid of everything, seemingly even his own shadow. But as the book progressed, he changed into the confident, mature character I was expecting. I also got to know Anemone better too, along with Kinkajou. Sadly, Moon, Winter, Qibli, Peril, and the other Dragonets of Destiny weren’t in it all that much, but hopefully will be in the next book The Darkness Of Dragons. Overall, I really liked this book and would recommend it to anyone who loves fantasy, or to other Wings of Fire fans.

This is an amazing book with adventure, mystery, and has just a hint of romance to tie it all together. The book is told from Turtle’s perpective which gives us another look at the world. I recommend this book to any Wings of Fire fan. You will not be disappointed.
