Summary
The truth is a powerful weapon.
Growing up in the hives, Cricket has always had a million questions. Why are trees forbidden, even in art? Why do her parents seem to hate her? And the biggest, most dangerous and secret question of all: why is Cricket immune to Queen Wasp’s powers? Whenever the queen takes control of all the HiveWings, speaking through their mouths and seeing through their eyes, Cricket has to hide, terrified of being discovered.
Now she's hiding again, wanted for stealing the Book of Clearsight along with her new SilkWing friends, Blue and Swordtail, and the fierce LeafWing, Sundew. The fugitives need answers, and fast, in order to prevent a LeafWing attack. But Cricket has more questions than ever. How can she stay hidden and discover the queen's deadliest secret? And if she does succeed -- can a powerless dragonet really do anything to topple a regime and stop a war?
Dedication
“For Wendy and Fiona, a pair of kind hearted funny bookworms with dragon hearts — Cricket and the bears I think you are Kindred spirits!”
Plot
Prologue
Moon thinks of a way to get Luna home, then Qibli comes to comfort Moon saying "That you will find a way." At that moment Tsunami and Turtle urgently come, claiming that Qibli has broken both Turtle and Anemone's magic with the protection spell, which he ernestly denies. Afterward, Tsunami devises a plan that she and Turtle will swim to Pantala, as it is stated to be too far, or at least, very dangerous and exhausting, to fly there.
Part One: The Glittering Hive
Cricket is in the cave protecting Blue's cocoon. She has a few flashbacks including a scene where the Hivewings get mind-controlled by Queen Wasp. This terrifies Cricket, so she runs to a cabinet and peeks outside to see what is happening. The mind-controlled Hivewings are trying to capture a Hivewing who isn't mind-controlled. Later that day, Cricket asks Katydid what happened to her and the other Hivewings. Katydid is confused on how Cricket can't be mind-controlled, but tells Cricket that being mind-controlled just feels normal. Katydid promises Cricket that she will not tell anyone that Cricket can't be mind-controlled. Another memory is about how Cricket reads forbidden books. Cricket doesn't really like her mom, Cadelle, since she is always grumpy and get super angry at Cricket when she reads forbidden books or distracts her while she works in her office.she then wishes she had a book to read and wonders if the 'Reading Monkeys' would lend her a book.she then hears footsteps and the slither of a tail on the floor and realizes someone else is in the caves.
Epilogue
Tsunami and Turtle go through a tiresome journey to reach Pantala. They land in the Poison Jungle and get saved from a large snake by a Leafwing. The Leafwing tells the Seawings that her name is Willow, but immediately tells Turtle and Tsunami to go back or they will get killed. Back on Pyrrhia, Luna asks Moon if she found a way to get to Pantala themselves. Moon says to not worry because the Pantalan dragons are coming to them.
