Tui T. SutherlandThe Dark Secret (Wings of Fire #4) (4)

Good.

This book is amazing because Starflight is one of my favorite characters in the series (at least for now lol)

I've been looking for a book about dragons. Not dragon riders, dragon slayers, or a girl who get's sent to a dragon's lair by her Aunt. I wanted a book about dragons. However, when I found this series, I didn't expect it to be any good. I was proved wrong.This book is in the point of view of Starflight the NightWing. In a world where the dragon tribes are at war, a prophecy has been delivered. Five dragonets will come and stop the war. A SeaWing, a SandWing, a MudWing, a NightWing, and a SkyWing. They were to hatch on the brightest night, and, in their eighth year, stop the war.Starflight has been taken by the NightWings. Again. And Morrowseer is not happy with him. At all. It doesn't help that his friends don't know he was taken, and think that he left on his own.Also, Starflight is not the fighter of the bunch. He's the bookworm. The nervous one, the one who has a huge crush on Sunny and has no idea how to tell her. He is also now my favorite of the group.This book is the best one in the series so far. It's full of twists and turns, including an alternet group of prophecy dragonets (who were not hatched on the brightest night), a young NightWing, Fatespeaker, who has a huge crush on him (That Starflight doesn't notice), a father, Mastermind, who happens to be the one leading the 'research' on the RainWings, which involve handcuffing them to walls and binding their mouths shut so that they can't spit their poison, and a queen that no one ever sees. Starflight also finds a dreamvistor, which is an animus-touched object that allows a dragon to enter another dragon's dream. (Turns out, Clay does dream about food. Like, lots and lots of food)Again, like the last one, I have no problems with this books. Starflight is a cute and nervous narrator, and it's interesting knowing his thoughts. It was also left on a bit of a cliffhanger, so it leaves you eagerly waiting for the next one.

Good

This is a good book, I read it fairly quickly, I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Wings of Fire series. Honestly, though, this is not my favorite of Sutherland's works. I found it a bit....not boring, but not exactly my favorite book. It DOES clear up a lot stuff, and I REALLY love the 'poetic justice', as Sutherland puts it, of (SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT) the "all powerful" NightWings bowing to the "useless" RainWings. That just goes to show that just cause you're a bit lazy and un-involved in certain things does not mean that you are weak. My favorite part is probably when the RainWings invade. Like, DUDE, that was awesome. I really admire Tui T. Sutherland for creating such an amazing series. It is well written, fun to read, and overall just awesome. This isn't my favorite of the series, yeah, but I still highly recommend it, especially if you want to continue the Wings of Fire series. Believe me, it only gets better from here!By B.K.

I bought this for my daughter thinking it was the graphic novel version, not realizing it came in "regular" novel format as well. The book is nice, good cover, decent page weight, and looked great. After discussing it with her, we're going to keep this and get the first books in this format as well as she's now curious to read both formats.I cannot comment to the content of the story as I have not read it, but my daughter and her classmates are all obsessed with this series. Her teacher noted they're begging her to buy them for the classroom as well. These are 4th grade students.

very good
