So I got Darkness of Dragons, and since we don't have a WOF board, I'm posting it here. Pics in the morning. Here are some spoilers, but I'll warn you that they're huge. - Final pairins are Moon/Qibli, Kinkajou/Turtle, and Tamarin/Anemone. - Qibli is the one who destroys Jade Mountain, but he changes his fate. - The SandWing Animus is Jerboa Jr., and she has a visitor from the Lost Continent. - Darkstalker uses Animus magic to turn Fierceteeth into Clearsight. - Kinkajou defeats Darkstalker by feeding him an Animus touched strawberry that turns him back into a dragonet. - Qibli uses Turtle's bowl to make more earrings. All of Pyrrhia gets one. - Winter founds his own town. - Mightyclaws just wanted to draw houses. - I'm pretty sure Winter's dad was killed by NightWings. - The epilogue has POV from all five second half characters. - Clay has a big stick. - Turtle gets his powers back with an earring. - Darkstalker got the idea to make everyone love him from Qibli. -Onyx gets crippled in jail. - Peril's dad comes back to frame the MudWings for terrorism. - Qibli's grandfather had the mirror Sunny lost. - Foeslayer kidnaps Tsunami.

I actually read these spoilers on the wiki earlier and I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive. Stupid Amazon!
Why does Foeslayer kidnap Tsunami, though? And how would you rate this book compared to the previous WoF books?
EDIT: Nevermind, my book already came.

I already have the book, but I haven't read it yet. And now I want to know why Foeslayer kidnapped Tsunami.
I've already read the epilogue though.

I just remembered yesterday that it had come out, so, since I couldn't bear waiting two horribly long days for it to come it the mail, I bought it as an ebook. I just finished it. My comments on the things that you mentioned: - Final pairins are Moon/Qibli, Kinkajou/Turtle, and Tamarin/Anemone. MoonXQibli becoming canon has personally ripped my heart out. Throughout the book, I kind of felt that Qibli was going to guilt trip Moon into loving him, since he was always thinking about how oh so lonely he is, and how Moon would neeeever love him when she could love perfect sparkly handsome shiny heroic Winter, and how his family hates him, etc., but, turns out, Moon just prefers kind, funny dragons over "tragic", sometimes rude dragons like Winter. Although I've noticed that Winter has become more friendly toward his friends after the Hailstorm incident, and seems to be trying to be kinder towards them, although he sometimes does lash out at them for things like Moon being friends with Darkstalker, Darkstalker trying to kill all the IceWings, stuff like that. He's just still sensitive about his tribe and his family after all that happened. And, Qibli even said to Moon that Winter probably wouldn't be able to live without her, but she was just like "Nah, he's big and strong and'll be fiiine." Grumble. Hiss. Sorry for ranting, I'm just a bit angry about it, as you can tell. -_- And, if you've read/seen The Hunger Games, I think Winter would be better for Moon because of why Katniss chose Peeta over Gale. Gale was almost just like her: smart, a hunter, even a bit cunning and cold. But Peeta wasn't like her, he was kind and loyal. Katniss didn't need someone just like her, she needed someone who could complement her and give her what she didn't have. So, like in The Hunger Games, I don't think Moon needs someone who's just another her, she needs someone like Winter who can give her his fierceness, his strength and his willingness to fight for what he believes in, whereas Moon is a bit soft and isn't quick to see the darkness in other dragons (*cough*Darkstalker*cough*), and might be a bit too hesitant to do what's necessary to protect herself and who she cares about in exchange for peace. Qibli won't give her that. Only Winter can. Woah, I really need to stop ranting omsc. ANYWAY, as for TurtleXKinkajou. I'm very happy it's pretty much canon now, I really love that ship. And both of its characters. Aaah, Turtle is awesome 'v' I don't really have much of an opinion on AnemoneXTamarin, except that it felt a bit rushed? I don't know. It just came out of nowhere in the epilogue. - Qibli is the one who destroys Jade Mountain, but he changes his fate. Yeah, well, I'm obviously not very happy with Qibli right now, and I must say, using the bracelets there was a bit dumb. I mean, the prophecy DID say "Jade Mountain will fall beneath thunder and ice". THUNDER and ice. HELLO? Fortunately, Anemone was able to turn the storm away before Qibli ended the world, so, go Anemone. - The SandWing Animus is Jerboa Jr., and she has a visitor from the Lost Continent. The Jerboa Jr. thing was both surprising and not surprising, as I knew there was a SandWing animus, but I didn't expect it to be Jerboa. It does make sense though. And, I figured the Pyrrhians would find out about the lost continent eventually. - Darkstalker uses Animus magic to turn Fierceteeth into Clearsight. Darkstalker will never cease to creep me out. I mean, bringing Clearsight back wasn't surprising, but changing Fierceteeth into her?! Whaaaat?! I don't see why he did that, instead of, say, a particularly interesting piece of jewelry? And Fierceteeth of all dragons. Gross. And, wasn't she at least a bit useful to him already, as a general, without turning her into another dragon? 0_0 - Kinkajou defeats Darkstalker by feeding him an Animus touched strawberry that turns him back into a dragonet. Yay Kinkajou! And, I kind of like Peacemaker, he seems like the adorable little dragonet Foeslayer deserved to raise. - Qibli uses Turtle's bowl to make more earrings. All of Pyrrhia gets one. The Qibli fashion club, lol. The whole time Qibli was pondering how in the world to stop Darkstalker and wishing he had animus magic of his own so he could make spells like the one on his earring for everyone else I was thinking: "IDIOT, USE THE BOWL!"- Winter founds his own town. Aww, I so want to visit Sanctuary cx It sounds so peaceful. And I love how Winter wants to make a scavenger den there too. I kind of wish he would go back to school though. His reasons not to seem reasonable, at least. Plus, seeing Moon there every day would probably hurt him a lot, knowing she chose Qibli.- Mightyclaws just wanted to draw houses. Lol, that's a convenient way to build a village. - I'm pretty sure Winter's dad was killed by NightWings. I'm pretty sure too although it's not really a big loss.- The epilogue has POV from all five second half characters. That was a long epilogue. I loved it all, except for the Qibli POV. -_- - Clay has a big stick. Clay is WoF's new Jayfeather, lol XD I love it - Turtle gets his powers back with an earring. This part made me so happy. Turtle totally deserves his powers, even if he doesn't think so. <3 - Darkstalker got the idea to make everyone love him from Qibli. Not surprising. -_- -Onyx gets crippled in jail. I figured out who her parents were very early on. Easy to guess. I've got to say, though, I don't really like Smolder and Thorn together. Just doesn't feel right.- Peril's dad comes back to frame the MudWings for terrorism. Rrrhh I don't like Chameleon at all. - Qibli's grandfather had the mirror Sunny lost. How exactly did he find that buried under a pile of sand in the middle of the desert? - Foeslayer kidnaps Tsunami. I still don't really get why she did that. Maybe she knew Tsunami stood no chance against Darkstalker and wanted to spare her? *shrugs* Edit: Oh my gosh, super long reply Sorry. It took me forever to type that up. You get a gold star if you actually read it all. 🌟

Ooh, and I have a theory that Turtle is the actual author of the entire series. He just asked the dragons in the other POVs for advice on what to write and maybe used a bit of animus magic to make it more accurate. cx
