The Hidden Kingdom is the third in the Wings of Fire series by Tui T. Sutherland. The prophecy continues to unfold ... but wait a minute ... the names are unfamiliar ... just who are these new dragonets? Are they imposters? Or spares? This time it is Glory who discovers her tribe is not what she has imagined them to be. And what about the impending War? There is cause for concern here: Tall Reader and I recently purchased the boxed set of eight of the titles in the series (there are more coming soon) ... will the chores get done? The errands? These are hard books to put down.

And proof of that is in the reading: I went directly from book three to book four: The Dark Secret. This time the adventure is taking place in a dark and mysterious kingdom, one the other tribes know very little about. Why are they so secretive? Why are dragonets vanishing from the nearby rain forest? Starflight finally gets to meet his father and while they share a love of scrolls, that's about it, much of what his father does baffles Starflight. The war escalates, there is a new Queen, and a surprising twist to the prophecy.
