Summary (from Amazon):
The seven dragon tribes have been at war for generations, locked in an endless battle over an ancient, lost treasure. A secret movement called the Talons of Peace is determined to bring an end to the fighting, with the help of a prophecy -- a foretelling that calls for great sacrifice.
Five dragonets are collected to fulfill the prophecy, raised in a hidden cave and enlisted, against their will, to end the terrible war.
But not every dragonet wants a destiny. And when the select five escape their underground captors to look for their original homes, what has been unleashed on the dragon world may be far more than the revolutionary planners intended . . .

I really liked this book. I especially liked the part when Clay (the main character) kept getting foamy and stung by the water. I thought that was really funny and well written. My favorite character was probably Peril because the author, Tui T. Sutherland, really gave her a nice humor and made her what you would imagine a dragon to be. Funny, but serious, at the times she should be. What I loved about this book was how the author brought history and legend to life to make this story what it is. For example, Sutherland made all these things that humans do with dragons instead of humans. Also, people always think they are so strong, but in this book, the humans are weak and the dragons are strong. It was hilarious how everything was almost put into the opposite. I would recommend this book to ages 7-12, girls and boys. I loved this book!
