four-stars

The second graphic novel of the wildly popular Wings of Fire series follows the plot of book 2 but in full-color glory. One of the dragonets of destiny is going home to the SeaWing Kingdom to meet her family. Sutherland adapts her own book to hit all of the important plot points (the joyful reunion of Tsunami with her mother Queen Coral and sister Anemone, suspicion by the SeaWings of the other dragonets, machinations happening in the rest of the kingdoms, and the intrigue of an assassin bent on eliminating all of Queen Coral’s heirs) and Mike Holmes creates the art that brings it all together. There is action, danger, and banter. Fans of the series will not be disappointed. Those new to the series will want to read book 1 and perhaps even the novel as the prolific number of dragons can be confusing to those who don’t know any of the characters.
