The Brightest Night, the fifth and final novel of the Wings of Fire series, will be published on Amazon March 25, 2014, and released to everywhere else on the first day of April 2014. Sunny, the SandWing Dragonet of Destiny, is the main protagonist.

This book follows The Dark Secret.

This book is the series finale.

The title most likely refers to the night when the three moons of Pyrrhia will be full all at the same time, known as "the brightest night" in the prophecy.

Back Cover

ONE WILL HAVE THE WINGS OF FIRE...

Sunny has always taken the Dragonet Prophecy very seriously. If Pyrrhia's dragons need her, Clay, Tsunami, Glory, and Starflight to end the war, she's ready to try it. She even has some good ideas how to do it, if anyone would listen to her.

But shattering news from Morrowseer has shaken Sunny's faith in their destiny. Is it possible for anyone to end this terrible war and choose a new SandWing queen? What if every thing they've been through was for nothing?

Buried secrets, deadly surprises, and an unexpected side to scavengers are all waiting for her in the shifting sands of the desert, where Sunny must decide once and for all: Is her destiny already written?

Or can five dragonets change their fate and save the world... the way they choose?

Summary

It all comes down to this: The Dragonets of Destiny must finally bring the epic war to an end, reconcile the seven tribes, and choose the next queen of the SandWings... and make it out alive.

The author hinted that a SandWing dragonet based off the name of one of her sons would be briefly mentioned.

It has also been hinted that the book will reveal a new side to the scavengers. (Source: description of "The Brightest Night" iBook.)

Plot

Part 1: The Shifting Sands

Sunny is coming out of the tunnel into the Rainforest after the volcano exploded. Clay arrives protecting Starflight from the explosion. Before Sunny can see if Starflight is all right, Preyhunter, Fierceteeth, and Strongwings kidnap her and bring her away. They mean to use her as a bargaining chip so that the RainWings will elect a NightWing as queen. It is then revealed that Preyhunter has stolen the Obsidian Mirror, which can be used to see any other dragons.

Part 2: Burn's Stronghold

Part 3: The Eye of Onyx

Trivia

  • It is one of the only books (along with The Dark Secret) where nighttime is of the background.
  • Fierceteeth, Strongwings, and Preyhunter don't want Glory to be their queen, so they are holding Sunny hostage.
  • Sunny's underscales look light yellow in the bright moonlight.
  • Although The Brightest Night was originally thought to be the final book in the Wings of Fire series, Tui T. Sutherland has revealed that she will be writing five more books, making ten in total. However, if the author chooses to write a sequel series rather than expanding upon the original books, this could be considered the final book of the Original Wings of Fire series.

Probabilities

  • Sunny might finally reconcile with her parents, although their status hasn't yet be disclosed.
  • The fireball from the NightWing volcano could have blinded Starflight.
  • Glory may be removed from the throne
  • Sunny may run away to the desert
