The New York Times bestselling Wings of Fire

series soars to new heights in this graphic novel adaptation.

Peril has been loyal to Queen Scarlet, who used her fatal firescales

to kill countless dragons in the

SkyWing arena. Now, Peril is loyal to Clay, the only dragonet who

has ever been her friend. So when Scarlet threatens Jade Mountain

Academy, Peril sets off to find her former queen, stop her, and

save the day, no matter what it takes.

There’s just one problem: a strangely persistent SeaWing,

Turtle, insists on coming along, too. Turtle is worried about his

friends, who left to search for Scarlet and haven’t returned.

Peril is worried that she might accidentally burn Turtle –

or burn him on purpose, for being so annoying – and frustrated

that she keeps saying and doing the wrong things. She can’t

escape her firescales, and she can’t escape her

reputation as the deadliest dragon in

Pyrrhia.

So when she’s offered a chance to trade everything for a

new life, Peril has to decide who she’s really loyal to …

and whether her own scales might actually be worth saving.
