About this ebook

This special edition of the #1 New York Times bestselling Wings of Fire series soars back in time to give readers a glimpse of Pyrrhia through new eyes.

In the shadow of wings . . . humans fight for survival. Ivy doesn't trust the Dragonslayer. He may be her father and the beloved ruler of Valor, but she knows he's hiding more than the treasure from the sand dragon he killed two decades ago. Leaf doesn't trust dragons. They're the reason his favorite sister, Wren, is dead, and now he'll do whatever it takes to slay even one. Wren doesn't trust anyone. She swore off humans after her village tried to sacrifice her to the dragons. She only has one friend, a small, wonderful mountain dragon named Sky, and they don't need anyone else. In a world of dragons, the humans who scramble around underfoot are easy to overlook. But Ivy, Leaf, and Wren will each cross paths with dragons in ways that could shape the destiny of both species. Is a new future possible for all of them . . . one in which humans can look to the skies with hope instead of fear?

Ratings and reviews

I LOVE this book. It tells us about the scavengers in the book series( A just missed 2) Also, isn't it a fun game to try to figure out what the dragon is saying when wren is figuring it out for us? My only problem is that the ending has a lot of suspense. What happened next?Also, to all the people who give reviews,this is for the legend's book, not for the whole series.

WINGS OF FIRE ARE AMAZING. JUST TOO AMAZING. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE MAKE A BOOK ABOUT PANTALA AND PYRRHIA COLLIDING. THAT'LL BE AWESOME AND GREATLY APPRECIATED. IT'LL BE ABOUT ALL THE DRAGONS LIVING IN PEACE AND ALSO DON'T FORGET MOON. I LOVE HER SO MUCH. PLEASE SEE THIS SOON TUI T. SUTHERLAND. I HOPE YOU CAN MAKE THESE BOOKS FASTER. I READ ONCE AND I'VE BEEN HOOKED HOW YOUR STORIES ARE A PAGE TURNER AND HOW AWESOME IT IS.

This book takes place in the perspectives of three humans in the Wings of Fire universe in the time of Books 1 through 5. Two characters, Wren and Leaf, were both very interesting and fun to read about. The third protagonist, Ivy, took a while to become interesting though, and she's the reason that this is a four star instead of a five star review. She became very interesting and fun to read about, but it just look a while, and I found myself a little disappointed when I reached a chapter about her, as the chapters cycle between the protagonists. She just couldn't initially match how creatively written the other two protagonists were. I appreciate how (initially) different Wren and Leaf were without making one seem bad for having a different view of dragons. All the characters felt real, and I emotionally care about them. Characterization was, for the most part, on point. I'm disappointed that this is just a Legends book, as it should have become its own series!
