"Suspenseful, sexy, and with incredibly entertaining storytelling, the first in Yarros' Empyrean series will delight fans of romantic, adventure-filled fantasy." Booklist, starred review "Fourth Wing will have your heart pounding from beginning to end. 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 USA Today 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.

Couldn't put it down

Fourth Wing is a wildly popular, high-stakes New Adult Romantasy that delivers on its premise of a war school filled with dangers, powerful magic, and dragons. The story centers on Violet Sorrengail, a young woman who, despite being physically unsuited for combat, is forced by her formidable mother to enter the Rider's Quadrant at Basgiath War College. In this deadly institution, the only paths are to succeed or die, and Violet must quickly adapt, relying on her sharp intellect to navigate rigorous training and lethal political rivalries. The book's greatest strength lies in its fast-paced, addictive quality and its highly appealing elements: distinct, telepathic dragons with strong personalities, and a palpable, intense enemies-to-lovers romance between Violet and a certain formidable wingleader. This novel is perfect for readers who enjoy underdog heroines, military academy settings, and high-heat romance woven into an action-packed fantasy framework. While it may rely heavily on established fantasy tropes, it executes them with such energy and emotional intensity that it becomes an undeniably fun and exhilarating read.

will suck you in no matter what reader you are

This got me hooked. I don't even read a lot of high fantasy yet I was absolutely hooked onto this. We're fully immersed into the world and you're immediately endeared to Violet. You root for her in this scary world and we learn quickly to never make connections because you don't know who will make it to the next day. The ending is confusing, heartbreaking and the cliffhanger will have you shouting and reaching for Iron Flame.

Oh brother this guy stinks

If I could give this book a lower rating, I would. I'm not even being over dramatic when I say this is the WORST piece literature I've ever read. First of the all the main characters were so self-centered it made me throw the book ever time they had something to say. Not only doesn't Voilet understand that people have to do everything their power to keep her alive because she has proving time and time again that she can't do it herself. This girl is 20 years old acting like she's a fragile toddler who can't do anything. This book is the farthest thing away from enemies to lover. They disliked each other for a sec then it was over. And the worst part was when she found out everything and why they want to keep it a secret she was mad because she wasn't part of the book club. Like girl you haven't been together for that long for him to be telling you his life story.

Obsessed: This Series Has Stolen My Heart!

I’m absolutely obsessed with this series! The thrill, the love, the lust, and the intense battle to save everyone—Rebecca Yarros had me hooked from start to finish. Vi and Xaden have completely stolen my heart. Every time I look at my husband, I can’t help but see Xaden (which, honestly, makes me love the books even more). I don’t know how I’m supposed to survive the wait for the next book. I feel like Vi—lost and searching for Xaden! The way Yarros left us on the edge of our seats is almost cruel, but in the best way possible. I read the books and listened to the audiobooks on long drives, completely immersed in this world. I might need to join an anonymous support group just to process all these emotions. If you haven’t read this series yet, what are you waiting for?
