Wings of Fire: Escaping Peril

Peril's scales burn anything she touches, which made her feared long before anyone thought to ask what she wanted. This instalment of Tui T. Sutherland's Wings of Fire series places a dragon whose gift is also a hazard at the centre of the story and follows her attempt to earn trust, choose between loyalty and conscience, and find a place among dragons who have reason to keep their distance. Old enemies resurface, secrets come apart, and the series continues its pattern of action, shifting alliances and genuine emotional weight. In brief: • Told through one of the series' most divisive and interesting dragons • Fantasy adventure pitched at readers around nine to twelve • Identity, trust and making amends carried through the plot rather than stated • Fits into the wider Wings of Fire sequence without heavy recap A good fit for middle-grade readers, school libraries and families already following the series.
