An Instant New York Times Bestseller
A Goodreads Most Anticipated Book
"Suspenseful, sexy, and with incredibly entertaining storytelling, the first in Yarros' Empyrean series will delight fans of romantic, adventure-filled fantasy." ―Booklist, starred review
"Fourth Wing will have your heart pounding from beginning to end... A fantasy like you've never read before." ―#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout
Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general―also known as her tough-as-talons mother―has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.
But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.
With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter―like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant.
She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.
Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom's protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.
Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda―because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.

嗯,挺烂的,略过那些细碎且没用的设定和无聊的小打小闹,我读得很快。全书就服务于这两点:violet和龙之间的互动很cute,以及violet和xaden之间的互动很sweet。我也不拉踩了,反正看YA不就为了磕点糖磕点人设和cp么(虽然这部连着两点都很平庸),爽就完事儿了,带脑子你就输了。

阅读过程中联想到了饥饿游戏、暮光之城和驯龙高手。可能期待太高,读完感觉咸湿又老套,like a lengthy juicy wet dream. 作者可能确实有写女性成长+奇幻的野心,但是笔法实在拙劣,在读者一眼就能看出情节走向的前提下再让人物纠结挣扎,就显得可笑又尴尬。本质上是披着奇幻外衣的性幻想读物。不知道作者有没有读过《时光之轮》,但书中一些细节设定出现了巧合的相似:人名Moiraine和地... 阅读过程中联想到了饥饿游戏、暮光之城和驯龙高手。可能期待太高,读完感觉咸湿又老套,like a lengthy juicy wet dream. 作者可能确实有写女性成长+奇幻的野心,但是笔法实在拙劣,在读者一眼就能看出情节走向的前提下再让人物纠结挣扎,就显得可笑又尴尬。本质上是披着奇幻外衣的性幻想读物。不知道作者有没有读过《时光之轮》,但书中一些细节设定出现了巧合的相似:人名Moiraine和地名Moirraine很像;汲取魔法的术语都是channel;过度channel都会导致burnout;邪物栖居的未知荒地the Barren也很像the Blight…心疼我为这本书浪费的一周时光。 (展开)

同事强烈推荐看的。有些出彩的部分但整体不怎么样,虽然最后有反转,还是不打算看第二部。文笔也差,词汇量捉急,一些词的重复率高得吓人。🛏️戏部分看得我瞌睡连连也是绝了……

7.5星吧。感觉节奏有点慢。言情戏居多。男二的性格太顽固,形象显得很刻板。后五分之一慢慢精彩了起来,除Dragon族、Gryphon族外,还有个Venin族。已经死去的女一哥哥也莫名奇妙出现。留了个悬念。
