Darkstalker is the first special edition in the New York Times bestselling Wings of Fire: Legends series by Tui T. Sutherland, published by Scholastic. This standalone companion novel soars back in time to the origin of Pyrrhia's most dangerous dragon, long before the events of the main Wings of Fire series.

Three dragons. One unavoidable, unpredictable destiny. In the SeaWing kingdom, a young prince discovers he is an animus — capable of extraordinary magic that comes with a terrible price. In the mind of a NightWing dragonet, a thousand futures unfold, and almost all of them lead to disaster and destruction. And under three full moons, the most powerful dragon Pyrrhia will ever know claws his way out of his egg: Darkstalker, the dragon destined to change the world forever.

Set long before the SandWing war and the Dragonet Prophecy, this juvenile fiction novel is ideal for middle-grade readers and fans of the Wings of Fire series seeking to explore the epic backstory of its most compelling villain.
