"Fourth Wing will have your heart pounding from beginning to end ... A fantasy like you've never read before."?Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from USA Today bestselling author Rebecca Yarros.
Twenty-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. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter—like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant.
She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.
Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom’s protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.
Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda—because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.

I loved the setup and (love) story. It's well written with characters to love and hate. Unfortunately, the reader is over the top, putting emphasis in almost every word and reads everything with a snear. She did well at reading the main characters thoughts and had me in tears when violet was in despair .

I'm a voracious fantasy reader and have now become a listener and this is hands down the best book I've listened to. It's one of the best books I've encountered this year all round! The narration is really excellent too, and caused me to binge-listen. The plot is interesting and character driven with lots of action, has a kind of hunger games feel, but with dragons instead. I find you tend to lose a little of the 'colour' in a book when a book is in audio but this one still shines brightly.

OMG, I can't believe I slept on this book for so long! I'm not really a fantasy person (more than Divergent, Twilight and the Whitcher series) but this had me hooked from the first chapter! Incredibly skilled author and not to mention the reader, what a performance 👏
