"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.

Hands down the best book of the year!

I cannot stop listening! This is by far the best book of the year. The action, the storyline, the romance, the world building….. it’s epic. The narrator does an amazing job. Cannot recommend enough.

Forget the haters. the narration was AMAZING.

Everything about this book was a 10/10. That is all. Please listen to it. I am BEGGING you

Great story and narration

FYI, the narrator must have re-recorded because there are no problems with this narration. Fantastic story start to finish!!

Amazing book

I adored this book once we got to them really having the dragons I could not stop listening and wanted to hid away until it was done. Romance was amazing world building is fascinating. I liked the narrator and how she tried to change her voice so you know which characters are talking. The male voice at the end I was not a huge fan of. But granted the switch caught me off guard after listening to 19+ hours of the female voice. Amazing 100% recommend.

Great story, awful narration

I don’t know why a narrator would record a book while sick, but the sound of the congestion/sick noises is absolutely disgusting and completely distracting. I absolutely loved this book and wanted to listed to it on my reread before Iron Flame came out, and regret spending an audible credit on this.
