“The first year is when some of us lose our lives. The second year is when the rest of us lose our humanity.” —Xaden Riorson
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.

“Highly recommend. As I was reading just never knew what was to come next, always kept me wondering and thinking. The ending still has me in shock. Can’t wait for the 3rd book of this series.”Valora

I’m so excited for the 3rd book, genuinely in love with Xaden, I can’t wait for book club to gab with my girls about this series because i’ve honestly just had so much fun reading them (something I haven’t felt in a long time).
Something I’m really obsessed with is the gaelic/irish/scottish influence of the names of the characters and dragons - will be reading more into that because the names of the dragons literally denote the signet.
Also like I knew I was gonna come around on my girl Lilith - bet anyone anything that she’s venin and became venin while pregnant with vi. If anyone wants my ending of the book thoughts and onyx storm predictions, don’t worry I wrote about a 7 page essay while bored at work. January 21st can’t come quick enough, hoping they do a midnight release at barnes and noble 🤞”SammyJade92
