āThe 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 Violetās already wondering how sheāll get through. Itās not just that itās grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that itās designed to stretch the ridersā capacity for pain beyond endurance. Itās the new vice commandant, whoās made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she isāunless she betrays the man she loves.
Although Violetās body might be weaker and frailer than everyone elseās, 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 wonāt 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.
