Moon Rising is the working title of the sixth book in the New York Times bestselling series Wings of Fire. Tui T. Sutherland has confirmed that the main character is Moonwatcher, the first telepathic NightWing in over a century. The book is predicted to be available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble around January 6, 2015. At a Book 5 Launch Party, Tui noted that the map might be updating for books 6-10 and a possible return of Auklet and Anenome.

Moon Rising begins at the dragonets' school at Jade Mountain, although the conflict and primary antagonists of the story are currently unknown.

There is a new prophecy for this book, which is hinted to have come from Moonwatcher herself, and may be the first true prophecy in generations-

Something is coming to shake the earth                                                       Something is coming to scorch the ground                                                   Jade Mountain will fall beneath thunder and ice                                                                                         Unless the lost city of night can be found.

Description

The New York Times-bestselling series soars to even greater heights with a new prophecy and five new dragonets ready to claim their destiny!

Peace has come to Pyrria . . . for now.

The war between the tribes is finally over, and now the dragonets of the prophecy have a plan for lasting peace: Jade Mountain Academy, a school that will gather dragonets from all the tribes and teach them to live together, perhaps even as friends.

Moonwatcher isn't sure how she feels about school, however. Hidden in the rainforest for most of her life, the young Nightwing has an awful secret. She can read minds, and even see the future. Living in a cave with dozens of other dragons is noisy, exhausting-and dangerous.

In just a few days, Moon finds herself overwhelmed by her secret powers and bombarded by strange thoughts, including those of a mysterious dragon who might be a terrible enemy. And when someone starts attacking dragons within the academy, Moon has a choice to make: Stay hidden and safe? Or risk everything to save her new friends?

Trivia

  • This is so far the only Wings of Fire book in which the title does not begin with the word "The".
  • It will not include one of the five original Dragonets of Destiny.
  • On the official Wikipedia page, it was mistakenly called The Missing Egg.
  • Moon Rising's cover is one of the only two covers that have the logo above the focus character, the other being book one, The Dragonet Prophecy.
  • The cover is also the only one where the dragon has their mouth closed.
  • The cover looks rather sea-like, and it also has four spirals which look 'grown', so it may hint a return to the Summer Palace.
