About this audiobook
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.
The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.
Book #1 Fourth Wing
Book #2 Iron Flame
Editor's Note
‘Fourth Wing’ sequel…
To everyone’s astonishment, Violet Sorrengail survived her first year at Basgiath War College. But the challenges and dangers are only beginning as Violet continues her dragon rider training. Stakes and brutalities soar higher than ever in Yarros’ sequel to “Fourth Wing,” and Violet must summon every ounce of her courage, determination, and intelligence if she’s going to defy all odds once again.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Tbh it could be better. I don't understand the hype behind this book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5SO many mixed feelings. I did but didn't want it to end. Violet and Xayden were annoyingly in love as before. Can't wait for the final book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was a very good read which inspired me to start reading more
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The plot twists are not obvious but the trail of clues are mostly there, helping the reader feel pulled along.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent!!!! Every chapter something amazing happens. I can't wait for the new book?
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5So long, way too much detail that does not progress the plot. And the end is a huge question mark and disappointment.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Oh my goodness, Yarros. All I can say I thank you. Woaw. How can anyone write like this, this is beyond good. Had to drink an energy drink to continue. BRILLIANT!!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Such a fycking amazing book. Rebecca Soler does another astounding job narrating the book.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I liked the first book so much, I was a bit disappointed in this one. The general plot is good, the second part of the book has a great pace. I am just so tired of the relationship between Violet and Xaden, and I feel like the book lacks a real antagonist.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very good audiobook, read very well, immerses you into the story.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Pretty good. Definitely not as predictable as the first book.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Brilliant, just brilliant. Couldn’t have been better. Didn’t want to stop listening but also dreaded reaching the end because I enjoyed it so so much
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Sooooo gooood? Can’t wait for the next book in the series!
