Talons of Power by Tui T. Sutherland
5.0
Another delightful story in the series.
Turtle is an excellent character. There are ways this book reminded me a bit of Starflight's book in the first set. Turtle doesn't see himself as brave or heroic - he has little value for himself. But he has great potential and he manages to rise to the occasion when needed, to save his friends, his sister, and possibly even more.
My recommendation for reading order of the Wings of Fire (WoF) series:
WoF #1-5
WoF Legends - Darkstalker
WoF #6-14
WoF Legends - Dragonslayer (this could be read after book #5, but that would spoil a sweet surprise present in book #14)
The WoF books follow a five book plot arc (with each book covering the growth arc of one character). If book 1 doesn't work for you, consider starting with book 6 or 11 to get invested in the world. Each book adds to the complexity of culture and history in the world, so you may miss a little if you skip books, but the overall plot and story will work.
