Reviews"Suspenseful, sexy, and with incredibly entertaining storytelling, the rest in Yarros' Empyrean series will delight fans of romantic, adventure filled fantasy." -- Booklist , starred review, for Fourth Wing " 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, for Fourth Wing "Readers will be spellbound and eager for more." -- Publisher's Weekly , starred review, for Fourth Wing "10000/5 starts, HOLLY. F*CKING. SHIT. I'm literally unwell after reading this...." "I kicked my feet, I laughed, I cried - and the ending took my breath away in the worst way possible. " "This. Was. So. Good. I love how Yarros wraps up the original conflict and then introduces a new one, so we're never left with a cliffhanger, just a clue of what's to come. Definitely going to continue the series." "[...] Iron Flame was a WILD ride and boy did I nearly ha[ve] a heart attack. My anxiety? Through the roof." "Of course this is 5 but I feel so physically nauseous right now from the ups & downs and emotions in this book that I can't even process a full review right now." "[...] Fourth Wing is the very first romantasy book I read, and I could never imagine how indelible an impact it would leave. It's like the threshing for me. I'm bonded for life. Both Fourth Wing & Iron Flame hit me like a collision, setting my tears and emotions ablaze." "I'm speechless. That ending? The cliffhanger? I did NOT see that coming, and I'm SHOCKED Honestly, I need 3 - 4 business days to recover from everything that happened " "5 This book is a freaking masterpiece." "Holy Bejesus. Well, I loved this. Loved this world, loved these characters, loved the damn dragons, all of it was just fire. [...] I was so invested in this story, so invested in the lives of these characters and the world that is being spun around, and I can't wait for the next ones!" "I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Left and right, things were happening, constant action. And I am heartbroken in a way I can barely recover." "This is one of my favorite books of all time." "This is an obvious 5-star Hell, if I could give it 10 stars, I would. I will never be able to formulate words about how much I enjoyed this book, so I'm not even going to try to give it a full, in-depth review." "This book is everything we wanted and more. Rebecca is definitely great at ripping your heart out."

The second year is when the rest of us lose our humanity." --Xaden Riorson Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College--Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet's already wondering how she'll get through. It's not just that it's grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it's designed to stretch the riders' capacity for pain beyond endurance. It's the new vice commandant, who's made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is-unless she betrays the man she loves. Although Violet's body might be weaker and frailer than everyone else's, she still has her wits--and a will of iron. And leadership is forgetting the most important lesson Basgiath has taught her: Dragon riders make their own rules . But a determination to survive won't be enough this year. Because Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries at Basgiath War College--and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.
