Who I'd Recommend to: Fans of Erin Hunter, the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, and Cornelia Funke.
Synopsis (from Amazon): Blue the SilkWing is content. Life in his Hive is safe; he loves his family; he has enough to eat. And Pantala has been at peace for as long as he can remember -- SilkWings and HiveWings live and work together in harmony, and because they stay vigilant, no one has seen a dangerous LeafWing in years. Now that Blue's sister, Luna, is undergoing her Metamorphosis, Blue knows things are going to change. Luna will have her wings and her silk, be assigned a partner and a work order, and move to another Hive. A few days later, Blue's own wings and silk will come in. But nothing could prepare Blue for what happens when Luna's wings start to grow. Suddenly his world is turned upside down, throwing him into dangers he never knew existed. Pantala isn't as peaceful as it seems, and Blue isn't safe. Whether he's ready or not, it's time to adapt -- and fight for his life.

Thoughts: This book is the best in the series yet. When I started reading the first book in the third sub-series of Wings of Fire I expected it to be okay, however when I finished it was the best Wings of Fire book I've read yet. I love how Tui T. Sutherland used some attributes from past Wings of Fire characters to create new characters. For example, Cricket (one of the main characters) is a lot like Kinkajou form the past Wings of Fire books. Another thing that I enjoyed about The Lost Continent was all the new species of dragons. One of my favorite things about the Wings of Fire series is all the different dragons and powers. I was sad when Tui T. Sutherland had of the same powers and dragons in the first ten books, but I was really excited in book eleven with all the new dragons and powers. Overall, I love, love, love this fabulous, amazing, funny, creative book.
