Fourth Wing

What if your biggest fear becomes the path to your greatest destiny?

In Fourth Wing, bestselling author Rebecca Yarros brings you into a thrilling world of dragons, battles, secrets, and strength a story filled with adventure, danger, love, and a heroine who refuses to back down.

This isn’t just another fantasy novel. It’s a powerful journey of a young woman forced to become a dragon rider in a brutal war academy where only the strongest survive and failure means death.

Welcome to Basgiath War College Where Death Waits Around Every Corner

Violet Sorrengail, the 20-year-old daughter of a powerful general, was never supposed to be a dragon rider. Her future was meant to be quiet and safe studying history and healing in the Scribe Quadrant.

But her mother has different plans.

She is forced into the Rider Quadrant, the most dangerous path in the Basgiath War College. There, students train to bond with fierce dragons, learn to survive deadly trials, and prepare for war.

The problem?

Violet is smaller, weaker, and far less prepared than the others. Most believe she won’t last a week.

Dragons Don’t Bond With Fragile Humans... Do They?

Dragons are intelligent, mighty, and deadly. They don’t tolerate weakness, and they definitely don’t bond with humans who can’t survive a fight.

But Violet is not just anyone. Despite her size, she’s smart, determined, and resourceful. She may not have brute strength, but she has the will to fight and that makes her a threat in ways no one expects.

Her only hope is to use her wits, agility, and knowledge to outlast her opponents. But the dragons? They have their own plans.

Enemies, Secrets, and Unbreakable Bonds

Inside the war college, danger is everywhere.

Every day, students die during training exercises or at the hands of others who want to eliminate the competition.

But even more dangerous than the tests are the students themselves.

And no one is more dangerous than Xaden Riorson the son of a traitor with a deadly reputation.

He’s strong, skilled, and ruthless, and he’s made it clear he doesn’t like Violet.

But there’s a fine line between hatred and attraction, and as the story unfolds, their connection becomes more complicated and more intense than anyone could have imagined.

As secrets from the past begin to unravel, Violet discovers that nothing at Basgiath is what it seems. The war they are preparing for may be hiding a deeper threat, and the people she trusts most might be the ones keeping the deadliest secrets.

A Battle Between Heart, Honor, and Survival

As Violet grows stronger, both mentally and physically, she begins to question everything:

Why was she really forced into the Rider Quadrant?

What secrets is her mother hiding?

What role does she play in the larger war beyond the college walls?

As she bonds with her dragon, forms friendships, and builds complicated alliances, she must make decisions that will test her loyalty, courage, and heart.

In a world where one wrong move can kill you, and where trust is a rare and precious thing, Violet learns that being brave doesn’t mean not being afraid it means fighting anyway.
