The Empyrean series follows Violet Sorrengail, the daughter of General Sorrengail, as she enrolls in the Basgiath War College—which her mother leads—to become a dragon rider in the kingdom of Navarre. At the school, students choose to join one of four different military branches: Infantry, Healer, Scribe, or Rider.
Despite training for her entire life to be a Scribe by her late father, Violet’s mother, the General, orders her to join the Riders—the wing at the school known for being the most deadly for new recruits. Violet must bond with a dragon and survive deadly quests and competitions against other recruits of the Fourth Wing.
Along the way, she reconnects with her childhood crush, Dain Aetos, and meets Xaden Riorson, a powerful third-year whose father was executed by Violet’s mother during the Navarre’s rebellion. Despite all odds, Violet bonds with dragons Tairn and Andarna and begins to uncover the truth about the rebellion and the re-emerging revolution.
Production on the series has yet to begin. Fourth Wing and the other subsequent books published so far in the Empyrean series are out now and available wherever books are sold.
