A fantasy like you've never read before." ―1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from 1 New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros Twenty-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.

    • Dragons, secrets, and a fight for survival.
Format: Audiobook
📖 Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros ★★★★★ "Fourth Wing" isn't merely a novel; it's a cultural phenomenon that demands your attention—a rare work that transcends its genre to become something transformative in the fantasy landscape. Rebecca Yarros has crafted a masterpiece of moral complexity that delivers precisely what discerning readers seek in dark fantasy. The world of Navarre unfolds with remarkable restraint, revealing its brutal war college, quadrant structure, and dragon-human bonds through immersion rather than exposition. This approach creates an experience that feels both intellectually stimulating and viscerally affecting. What elevates this narrative beyond mere entertainment is its commitment to moral ambiguity. There are no clear heroes or villains here, only individuals making difficult choices in impossible circumstances. As one character observes, "A dragon without its rider is a tragedy. A rider without their dragon is dead"—a statement that resonates as both lore and foreshadowing. This ethical tension permeates every relationship and decision, creating a profound sense of unease that heightens emotional investment. Violet Sorrengail's journey from physically limited scholar to dragon rider exemplifies the novel's thematic depth. Initially underestimated due to her physical limitations, she enters a world of brutal competition where survival seems impossible. Her evolution isn't merely about gaining power but about redefining strength itself. When Xaden declares, "I know exactly who and what you are, Violet Sorrengail," we understand the weight of recognition in a world built on deception. The political intrigue surrounding Basgiath War College provides a compelling backdrop for character development. The failing wards, the mysterious rebellion, and the secrets maintained by those in power create a labyrinthine plot that rewards attentive reading. Each revelation feels earned, each twist consequential to both narrative and character. While the prose occasionally falters with contemporary phrasing that seems at odds with the setting, and the final act's pacing becomes somewhat breathless, these minor flaws do little to diminish the overall achievement. The romantic elements, though following familiar patterns, are executed with such emotional intelligence that they transcend their tropes. "Fourth Wing" represents the beginning of something significant in fantasy literature—a reference point that will influence conversations for years to come. Its high-octane intensity demands full attention and rewards it with an experience that is intellectually stimulating, emotionally devastating, and utterly unforgettable. 📦 What to Expect ✨ Epic Fantasy 💖 Slow Burn Romance 🔥 Grumpy/Sunshine Dynamic 🤯 Complex Politics & Power Struggles 💔 Deep Emotional Growth 🦴 Magical Beasts or Sentient Magic ⚔️ A Lead Who Fights for More Than Survival 📚 Book Tags Keywords: Dark Fantasy, Magic, Romance, Political Intrigue, Found Family, Survival, War Tropes: Grumpy/Sunshine, Enemies to Reluctant Allies, Found Family, Mentor/Protégé, Slow Burn, Power Couple Triggers: Violence, War Themes, Emotional Abuse, PTSD 🎯 Final Thoughts This isn't just a book you read—it's an experience you surrender to. For those who appreciate fantasy with intellectual depth and emotional resonance, "Fourth Wing" offers a rare combination of accessibility and complexity that will leave you simultaneously satisfied and desperate for more. ... show more

    • Perfect romantasy for dragon lovers!
Format: Paperback
An extraordinary ride full of dragons, danger, shadow daddy enemies to lovers, friendship, lies and deception, and so much more! I absolutely loved this one so much!! I was interested and entertained the entire time! The danger, fear, friendship, love, tension, all of it! The characters were also so amazingly written! The plot was incredible and had its own uniqueness and the ending had me on my toes ready to dive until the next book! The plot: I thought it was so interesting that the main characters were studying at a war college that they could literally die during. Like what?! They had all these challenges they had to complete or lose their lives and not only did they have that danger they also had to watch out for fellow schoolmates who might off them. But it kept me on my toes nervous for Violet and all her friends and classmates. And we can't forget about the dragons and the huge role that they play in the story and plot. I love a plot where dragons are an integral part of the story! Violet: I loved her character! I loved seeing her growth throughout the book. I loved how she proved that she wasn't some fragile girl and she could and would find a way to hold her own. And I loved that her friends stood by her and helped her as well. I think she was a very well-rounded character. She loves her family and friends dearly, she's kind but can be ruthless at times when need be, and she's incredibly smart and witty. I loved her banter with Xaden and the fact that she didn't step down. Overall, great character! Xaden: Oh, the shadow daddy of all shadow daddies! I totally get all the hype for him now! Oh my did I love and enjoy his character. His wit, his banter, his sexiness, his teasing, his fierceness, and everything in between. He's everything you want to see in a MMC. I loved his nickname "Violence" for Violet. I also can't wait to see more of his growth to come and everything else he has up his sleeve! Violet's friends: I loved and adored Violet's friends they each had their quirks and were so loyal and loving to her. I'm still heartbroken over a certain someone IYKYK. I think they all played a great part in the storyline and her development. I'm excited to see what comes next for them, hopefully, it's some good. Dragons: I loved the various dragons and how there were different species per day with different colors, tails, traits, etc. I loved that we got to know what they were thinking and saying. I thought that was really cool and unique. I hope we get more of them in the next one! Romance and spice: Man should this book write notes on how to do an enemies to lovers with witty banter and tension amazingly. There was tension, build-up, banter, and so much more. And man did it get steamy and spicy in this one! The detail was to die for. Loved the MMC and FMC's romance with a passion! Tropes: • Dragons • War college • Shadow daddy • Enemies to Lovers • You can talk in my head • Tension and witty banter • You 💀, I 💀 • Spicy • Grief ... And more! Check trigger warnings! ... show more
