What Is the Empyrean Series About?

Before diving into the series, a friend described "Fourth Wing" to me as "Harry Potter, but with dragons." While this comparison holds true in the early stages, the narrative soon evolves into something more akin to the "Twilight" series, evolving into a deeply immersive, fantasy romance novel with graphic details.

The story follows Violet Sorrengail, a seemingly delicate young woman coerced by her influential mother into attending a perilous academy for dragon riders. As Violet navigates her vulnerabilities and strives to survive, she grapples with complex emotions about her mother, an old friend, and a boy she believes wishes her harm. Amidst an epic romance, Violet uncovers deeper secrets about the dragons and her world, placing her at the heart of unfolding mysteries.
