Booklog 21/2023: Rebecca Yarros: Fourth Wing – Empyrian #1

[jacey]

In some ways the opening of this book reminds me of the Scholomance. Basgiath War College weeds out the weak from the strong by killing the weak. Once you enter there's no way out other than graduate or die. Twenty year old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to become a scribe, but the tough commanding general, Violet's mother, orders her to become a candidate in the elite Navarre dragon riders. Violet knows it's a death sentence, her bones and muscles are weak. She's the sort of fragile human that dragons incinerate. The other cadets are as dangerous as the school's challenges, several want to kill her, just to get her out of the way. A few have personal grievances including Xaden Riorson,, 3rd year student and wing leader of the Fourth Wing. His father killed Vi's brother, her mother executed his father. But Riorson doesn't make any attempt on Violet's life, in fact he helps her to be a better candidate. There's sizzling sexual tension between them and a few steamy (explicit) scenes. This is the story of Violet's first year at the kill-or-be-killed college and there are surprises and plot twists that I don't want to spoil. All I will say is read it. Bing on the next one please. Highly recommended.
