In the first book, Wings of Fire: The Dragonet Prophecy, readers are introduced to seven dragon clans who have been at war for generations over lost treasure. A secret movement called the Talons of Peace attempts to restore harmony among the clans, with the help of a mysterious prophecy, but it will take a major sacrifice to make that dream a reality. 

In the most recent installment, Wings of Fire: The Flames of Hope, readers meet Luna, who has always dreamed of changing the world. When human- and dragon-kind are threatened by mortal danger, Luna decides to fly back to the land of Pantala with a team of rescue dragons. But Luna soon realizes that if she doesn't uncover a long-buried secret that threatens every living creature, she'll have to say goodbye to the world forever. 

From providing edge-of-your-seat adventures to exploring relatable family dynamics, the Wings of Fire series will grab and hold your students’ attention.
