About This Book

The graphic novel adaptations of the #1 New York Times bestselling Wings of Fire series continue to set the world on fire! For every villain, there is a hero ... Turtle isn't one of the heroes he reads about in stories. If he were, he'd use his animus powers to help Pyrrhia -- instead of keeping his abilities a secret, even from his own sister. Now that Darkstalker, the sinister and impossibly old dragon from Pyrrhia's most notorious legends, has returned, Turtle knows his own role is simple: hi

Our Review

This ninth graphic novel adaptation of the bestselling Wings of Fire series thrusts readers back into the war-torn dragon world of Pyrrhia, where the legendary and sinister Darkstalker has returned. The story centers on Turtle, a young dragon grappling with a dangerous secret—he possesses rare animus magic, a power he fears too much to use openly. As ancient evil reawakens, Turtle's internal conflict between his self-doubt and the desperate need for a hero creates a gripping, character-driven fantasy adventure.

What sets this installment apart is its focus on a reluctant, introspective protagonist rather than a traditional, bold hero. Turtle's journey of self-acceptance and the immense weight of his hidden power provides a compelling psychological layer to the epic dragon warfare and high-stakes prophecy. Fans of the series will be captivated by this deeper exploration of animus magic's moral complexities, while the vibrant, action-packed graphic novel format makes this mythical world accessible to both longtime followers and new readers. It’s a powerful story about finding courage in unexpected places.
