Fourth Wing (The Empyrean, Book 1) by #1 New York Times Bestselling Author Rebecca Yarros — The massive international BookTok sensation that redefined modern romantasy.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was prepared to live out her days among books and scrolls in the Scribe Quadrant. However, her formidable mother—the commanding general—orders her to join the hundreds of candidates striving to enter Navarre’s deadly elite: the Dragon Riders.

At Basgiath War College, the competition is brutal and unforgiving. Dragons do not bond to "fragile" humans—they incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than there are cadets, most will die trying to survive the gauntlet. To make matters worse, many riders would kill Violet simply for being her mother’s daughter—especially Xaden Riorson, the ruthless, strikingly dangerous leader of the Fourth Wing.

As the war outside grows deadlier and Navarre's protective wards begin to fail, Violet must rely on her wits, resilience, and sheer determination to survive. Because at Basgiath, every night could be your last, and there are only two ways out: graduate or die.
