Flying on the Wings of Fire

This is the eleventh book in the Wings of Fire series and starts a new storyline on a new continent we have never visited before. Although some of the story elements are similar to previous books. I did really enjoy meeting new characters and exploring both whole new types of dragons and a whole new landscape.

This book starts with a prequel featuring Clearwater and her journey across the seas to a new continent of dragons. The new continent is called Pantala. There are new types of dragons in Pantala including Hivewings, Leafwings and Silkwings. After this prequel we journey many centuries into the future where a Silkwing named Blue is preparing for his metamorphosis along with his sister Luna. This book introduces a whole new bunch of new dragons and some great new fun characters. I loved Blue with his quiet tentativeness and Cricket with her non-traditional Hivewings view.

All the characters here are filled with a lot of fun. The new world is interesting as well. There were a lot of adventures, some awesome fight scenes, a lot of new and interesting dragon abilities and politics.

Overall this was fun and a quick read that I enjoyed a lot. I really enjoyed the creative setting and new types of dragons. Recommended to those who enjoy middle grade fantasy adventure featuring dragons.
