What Is the Empyrean Series About?

A friend initially described Fourth Wing as "Harry Potter with dragons," which, while partially true initially, is ultimately misleading. The series quickly evolves into a more mature, richly detailed fantasy romance with graphic elements.

The story follows Violet Sorrengail, a seemingly delicate young woman forced by her powerful mother into the perilous world of dragon rider training. Violet's journey is one of self-discovery and survival, navigating complex relationships with her mother, a former friend, and a rival who seems intent on her demise. Underlying the intense romance, a larger mystery unfolds, placing Violet at the heart of a world far more intricate than she ever imagined.
