Fantastic finale to the Wing & Claw trilogy! Highly recommended for grades 4 & up. Must read in order.

Overall, a decent trilogy that imparts some good messages about tolerance and inclusivity, making the right decisions even when it’s hard, etc. However, this book was much slower than the other two. It felt like the entire book was devoted to planning. (I don’t want to spoil too much.) I didn’t care for the ending either. I didn’t see the point in what Raffa and his friends did.

Very good middle grade fantasy series. Moral issues wrapped in beautiful landscape, diverse and clever cast, and a mission to save the animals. It is inviting and engaging while promoting deeper contemplation than some young readers may even notice. However, it is still lovable and entertaining. I wish I’d read the first two as well so I could have understood more of the background and nuances in the plot.
