See below for English description. Il y a 65 millions d'ann�es, alors que les mammif�res envahissent la plan�te, rempla�ant peu � peu les dinosaures en voie d'extinction, Ombre, un chiropt�re, d�couvre qu'il est diff�rent. Il peut battre des ailes et voler, contrairement � ses semblables de la tribus des Ailes d'Argent, qui ne peuvent que planer. �vitant l'exil de justesse gr�ce � son p�re, le chef de la tribu, Ombre demeure avec les siens. Il ne se doute pas qu'il devra les sauver du massacre et les guider lors d'un p�rilleux voyage vers un endroit o� fonder leur nouveau foyer. Darkwing, un portrait surprenant d'une �re tourment�e, l'histoire d'Ombre, la toute premi�re chauve-souris. Before there were bats like Shade, Marina or even Goth, there was a young chiropter--a small arboreal glider--named Dusk. Unlike other chiropters, who can only glide down from their colony's home in a giant sequoia tree, Dusk can actually fly, a skill that makes him an outcast. But when Carnassial, a felid, and one of the world's first mammalian carnivores, leads a savage massacre of the chiropters, Dusk's strange ability transforms him into the colony's saviour.

first time i have read a book by oppel but I am now going to read his other books. This book took place about 65 million years ago. About how different animals might have been like after the dinosaurs died off. How they might have lived. The characters in the book were great. I really liked dusk and was rooting for him. there can be deeper meaning how everyone can be different it is good. you dont have to hate differences. Just could not put it down.
