Fourth Wing — Rebecca Yarros
-
Katabasis — R. F. Kuang
Whether you’re chasing dragon academies, dark prophecies, or mythic underworlds, these novels will ignite your imagination and keep you turning pages deep into the night.
Onyx Storm
Onyx Storm is the latest chapter in Rebecca Yarros’ electrifying Empyrean series. Following the breathtaking events of Fourth Wing and Iron Flame, Violet and Xaden face new threats, deeper conspiracies, and the true cost of rebellion in a world ruled by dragons.
For fans of romantic fantasy and dragon riders, Onyx Storm delivers everything readers crave—explosive action, emotional depth, and a love that defies destiny.
Fourth Wing
The book that started the phenomenon—Fourth Wing introduces readers to Basgiath War College, where only the toughest cadets survive. Violet Sorrengail never meant to become a dragon rider, but fate (and one infuriatingly handsome rival) has other plans.
If you love enemies-to-lovers tension, fierce heroines, and dragons that bond—or burn—at will, this is your must-read fantasy adventure.
Katabasis
In Katabasis, the long-awaited sequel to Dark Rise, R. F. Kuang plunges readers back into a world of shadow and prophecy. As ancient forces rise and loyalties fracture, the lines between hero and villain blur in this intense, character-driven fantasy.
Perfect for readers drawn to dark fantasy, mythic retellings, and slow-burn redemption arcs—Katabasis is a haunting journey into light, darkness, and destiny.
