Get ready to be wowed by Tui T. Sutherland's first installment in the "Legends" spin-off series! Told from the perspective of three different dragons- Clearsight the NightWing, Fathom the SeaWing, and Darkstalker himself, this beautifully crafted novel shows us what motivated Darkstalker to become the twisted dragon we know well as of the modern arcs. I absolutely adored every page of this book. It gave us rich insight to the history of Pyrrhia, from its normalization of animi to the fact that RainWings' powers were actually well-known, featured in the guide to the tribes, and feared by many. Despite Darkstalker's villainy, he was a character the reader could easily empathize with, and his backstory was fleshed-out, and, in the grand scheme of things, made sense. Clearsight was a lovely POV, although I'd like to get a bit more detail as to why her seer powers were so strong, and if it could happen again in the modern timeline. Fathom's character itself seemed a bit lacking, and it was rather reminiscent of Turtle- now we know why Darkstalker called him that when he summoned him in Talons of Power- but his chapters were filled with action, suspense, and emotion. His past trauma was something rarely explored in middle-grade books such as Wings of Fire, but it was executed wonderfully. The massacre scene was amazingly written, and gave me chills the first time I read it. The three protagonists worked wonderfully together, and Darkstalker's spiral into madness was gradual and extremely interesting to watch play out. I do wish Arctic's death was described in a bit more detail, although I have a hunch that if it was, this wouldn't be a middle-grade novel. Darkstalker's relationship with Whiteout was something I adored- Whiteout was one of my favorite characters, since neurodivergent characters are just so rare in Wings of Fire. She was nicely written and the detail about her scavenger doll was just adorable! Darkstalker's devotion to Foeslayer was also sweet- there is a SERIOUS lack of positive parent-child relationships in Wings of Fire. I liked how Indigo could see through Darkstalker from the start- it showed how Albatross made her far more vigilant. I never saw her plot twist coming! And, speaking of Albatross, he was a sinister character who, despite his early death, managed to be insanely well-written. The writing style of the book also seemed a lot more mature and serious than the main series, a change I personally enjoyed. If you're looking for a novel with dragons, morally gray main characters, and magic, Legends: Darkstalker should be your go-to (although I would recommend reading the main series, first!)

Cool free gems

The final adventure awaits for you with Will, the youngest of the Stanton family. Finally reunited with his siblings, Simon, Barney, and Jane as they set out and fight their final battle against the Dark as the Light. Will's friend, Bran Davies also joins them on their final adventure together, saw their uncle, Merriman. As we went on those 5 crazy but also challenging adventures and quests with Will and his siblings, it's also really interesting of how those characters have evolved over last 5 books in the Dark is Rising series with both cultures of Arthurian and Welsh in the medieval era. Overall, this series are pretty good and I would recommend this for the readers who enjoy the fantasy and this is also very similar to another book series of Harry Potter as Will is the Chosen One, too. - Happy Reading!

In my world, I love graphic novels and Raina Telgemeier's always keep me entertained. If I ever end up finding one of her books, I never turn away. If you're a fan of humor and drama, these are for you.

A thrilling read...action-packed and filled with adventure, this book will surely enthrall anyone who reads it. Impossible to put down, and a truly good book. Sasha is a house cat with everything she could want; food, shelter, and a good place to sleep. But when her owners go missing, she must make a choice; stay safe inside the abandoned house, but with no one to care for her? Or leave, only to brave the dangers of the wild? Eventually, she chooses the latter, venturing out into the cold, unknown forest...and that’s when she meets Tigerstar. Tigerstar is the powerful leader of ShadowClan, one of the groups of wild cats who live and hunt in the forest. The first time he meets Sasha, he sees her trespassing on ShadowClan’s territory...and catches her. Sasha is scared, and wonders if she should have gone into the wilderness after all. But then, Tigerstar begins to act friendlier—and they fall in love. Still, Sasha sometimes worries she was wrong to trust the ShadowClan leader...he has many secrets, and some of them are too terrible to be revealed.

I was thrilled to receive this book through a DOGOBooks giveaway, and I immediately started the quizzes as soon as I got it! This book is a total blast and a fun way to spend your time. I also learned a lot about myself through it. For example, I guess I'm a landlubber instead of a pirate, and I'm pretty serious. But I also confirmed the accuracy of the quizzes. For instance, I'm very averse to risks, and one quiz said just that! In all seriousness, I really enjoyed this book. It's a must-have for anyone who wants to learn more about themselves in a fun and engaging way. Like all Nat Geo books, it's informative and interesting, but still entertaining and a lot of fun. Happy reading!
