The Empyrean
Rebecca Yarros · 3 novels · 1 collection · 2023–2026
Rebecca Yarros's The Empyrean opens with Fourth Wing, following Violet Sorrengail as she's pushed into a brutal dragon-rider war college despite having trained for a different, less physically demanding path. Iron Flame and Onyx Storm continue her survival among rival riders and a wider political conflict facing the kingdom of Navarre. The series pairs a competitive military-academy structure with a central romance thread running alongside the war narrative.
