As a 20 year old guy I found this series to be AMAZING! I rarely cry, but when I finally finished Darkstalker the latest (and best written) book in the series, I was shedding a waterfall of tears.I was looking for a book series about a world of dragons, without humans, written for adults and this is the closest thing I could find. Even though it only fit one of my criteria, I almost immediately fell in love with it.
Never once has the author done something that made me think "That's impossible" as the author does a very good job of using science and logic to resolve conflicts in a way that never feels cheap. The worst I have thought is "that seems highly unlikely" only twice in the entire series. I wanted a series for adults so that there would be no Deus ex Machina's, but this series shows that even books for a younger audience can be just as well written as any books for adults.
Also, although there are humans in this book series, they are NOT the dominant species and they are treated by dragons exactly as you would expect. This was very satisfying for me, as I have had enough of "dragon riding" books. I don't read dragon books for the humans, I read them for the DRAGONS!
The only gripes I have with the series are entirely because of my age and the fact that I am not in the target demographic. First off, although the books can get quite violent, I would have enjoyed MORE violence. Especially from the main characters. However, I was satisfied by the fact that any violence in the series has a reason to be there, and is never meaningless.
My other gripe is that I feel that, if the author was able to write such an amazing book series with so many tight restrictions on themes in order to make it for a younger audience, it makes me wonder just how much more deep and powerful her writing could get if she didn't have those restrictions.
Overall, if you love dragons, buy this series. It has been an inspiration to me and I am sure it will be to you as well.

Wings of Fire Book One The Dragonet Prophecy edition by Tui T Sutherland Children eBooks Reviews
As I write this, my fourth-grade boy is devouring this book on a snow day, which makes me a happy parent.
He just finished "The Land of Stories" and I thought I'd have him try out this series.
For reference, he's a sporty, active kid and, for a long time, I had a hard time convincing him to read for pleasure. A couple of years ago, when he was 7, I managed to reel him in with graphic novels in the fantasy genre. He was surprised to realize that reading is fun! It looks like there are also graphic novels connected to this series. Since then, he's moved on to the traditional novel format (I think he graduated to Land of Stories after reading several graphic novel series).
Personally, I'm happy to see the mainstreaming of fantasy. When I was a kid, books like this were considered "dorky" and I hid my interest in them rather than face ridicule from my peers. I'm beyond pleased that this is not the case anymore!
I found this book at the local Books-a-million and started reading it, then got it on to finish it. It's a good, solid adventure book for young readers that I enjoyed as a 20 year old. The action is well written without being gory or disturbing, and ethical choices feel real and pressing. The characters are a bit simple but in a way that works very well for the story. My biggest complaint is that the protaginist changes every book. After spending a whole book getting to know one, I want to hear from them more. Despite that, this is a really good series and I'm looking forward to reading the ninth book when it comes out. I recommend this to friends in a heartbeat.
By all means, this series shouldn't have been half as good as it is. I came into this series expecting a watered down Harry Potter est story, based on the description in the sixth book, (the one I saw in the store.). But what I got was one of the best books I have read in almost a decade! It is so well put together and each of the dragonets shine exponentially in each of their respective books. And there are so many twist and turns you will never expect. And when past elements catch up with our heros, you really feel the impact and want to keep close attention to anything that happens. Because more often than not, it WILL come back in ways you will never expect. All in all, I cannot express how great fun I am that I gave this series a chance because there is no doubt it will stand the test of time!
I've just started reading this series of books with my 8 year old, and she absolutely loves them. At this point, she could read them herself (they are listed as being for kids 8-12 years old), but she still enjoys having her bedtime read-out-loud stories, and I'm not going to argue with that. The books are engaging, easy to read, and very well written the dragons talk and behave much like human tweens and teens, but their struggles and their adventures all take place in the fantasy world of Pyrrhia, where dragons are the main characters and humans are only mentioned in passing as "scavengers". I would highly recommend these books to any and all young readers with an interest in fantasy, and especially for dragon-lovers!
