The Winglets are short digital-first novellas published between 2015 and 2016 that give readers a closer look at side characters from the main Wings of Fire series. Each story runs about fifty to seventy pages and focuses on a single dragon whose perspective was not explored in the main books. The four novellas were later collected in a print edition called Winglets Quartet.
Prisoners and Assassin fill in gaps from the first arc, showing what Fierceteeth and Deathbringer were doing behind the scenes. Deserter provides context for Six-Claws, a SandWing soldier who appears in the fifth book, The Brightest Night. Runaway ties directly into the Legends novel Darkstalker, following Prince Arctic’s flight from the Ice Kingdom. The novellas are brief but add real depth to the main series, and Sutherland uses them to show events that the main protagonists were never present to witness.
