Synopsis
The #1 New York Times bestselling series Wings of Fire soars to new heights in the fourth graphic novel adaptation!
In the shadows, trouble is brewing…
When Starflight is stolen by his own tribe, he hopes to at least discover some of the long-held NightWing secrets — what magical powers they really have, who they're allied with in the war, and where they've been living all this time.
But the truth about Starflight's tribe is more terrible than he ever imagined: Not only do the NightWings live in a dark, miserable place, but they've imprisoned several innocent RainWings there, too. Stranded and alone, Starflight only wants to get back to his friends. But the fate of two kingdoms now rests in his talons, and with no one to save him, Starflight will have to find a way to be brave … before it's too late.

Variation from novel
- In the graphic novel, Starflight had already been captured by the NightWings. The novel briefly depicts Clay leaving Starflight by the entrance to the NightWing island before the latter is captured by his tribe.
- When Starflight dreams about being back under the mountain in the novel, he and Sunny are interrupted by Kestrel and Dune. In the graphic novel, only Kestrel interrupts Starflight and Sunny.
- When Starflight enters Tsunami's dream via the dreamvisitor, Anemone isn't present, nor does she go insane in Tsunami's dream and attack Gill. Instead, Tsunami is the one who kills her father in her nightmare.
