A fantasy like you've never read before." ―#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. ArmentroutEnter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca YarrosTwenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter—like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant.She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom's protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda—because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.Reading Order:Book #1 Fourth WingBook #2 Iron Flame

"I understand the hype. It grips from the beginning with the horrible remarks from her mother and carries me on an emotional journey until the very end (which I think was meant to be shocking but actually wasn’t)."

"It was hyped up far too much. The writing wasn't great. The world building is nice. I think if people hadn't equated it with acotar so much, I would've been less disappointed."

"A big your did it sticker for me. It took me 85 pages to get interested in the story, and the beginning end kinda dragged on, end end was good though. So i must redact a star for my bordenism. Still a good read. 4/5"

"This was a great book, but not 5 stars just because I’m really not into fantasy, dragons, and magic. Really love the enemies to lovers storyline and the twist at the end was awesome. I do feel it was a little long and I guess it makes sense to have to learn the magic world, but I struggled through parts of that just because I don’t care about most of that stuff. I’ll definitely be finishing the series - it was worth the long read."

"That was amazing. I was hooked and had a hard time putting the book down. I love the story, but I warn you not to fall in love with characters other than ML and FL. It was gripping, made me laugh and cry, all the emotions. Man, do I recommend this book!"

"I mean yeah. The dragon stuff is cool. No, Xaden and violet are not “enemies to lovers” they do not fit into that. It was serviceable."
