Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders…<\/strong>

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general\u2014also known as her tough-as-talons mother\u2014has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders<\/em>.

But when you\u2019re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away…because dragons don\u2019t bond to \u201cfragile\u201d 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\u2019s daughter\u2014like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant.

She\u2019ll 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\u2014because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Aighty, I got multiple friends who read this. one of which has been longing for me to read it because she thought it was so funny. And it’s a VERY popular series. And since it’s so silly… I’m gonna annotate real hard. I’m borrowing this as an ebook so I gotta do as much reading as I can within two weeks that I got it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So. Long post, yall. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Chapter 1 <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I love this kind of shit. In fact, it’s even funnier to imagine that someone wrote all of this down, including every interior thought of our main character. Because bro\u2014 if it ain’t in her diary, then how? I mean, I do really love that “It is in Fantasy Language, which is perfectly translated before you here” thing. It’s a great way to chuck in the language of the story, because there is no real equivalent, or you can get scholarly with it. (Fourth Wing does not)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Violet??? Violet???? Her head is now my cat’s head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Jesus Christ. Prediction: either the most evil person or one of the love interests has mind reading. Or she<\/em> will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mom, listen\u2014 “You are your father’s daughter!” Yeah no shit! They go to pains to talk about how this woman, at twenty, is basically the equivalent of a glow stick with all the cracks and pops and apparent pains she suffers. And yet mom is like, yeah man, throw her to the wolves, fucking do it, why not!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ye Olde Guide to Murder and Mayhem<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

They use this for sex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’m going to kill this man child. I’m going to kill him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Heyo! Our first instant hottie! He’s got black hair and eyes. He’s probably the evil boyfriend, the one who will in fact have mind-reading powers. Violet, I know your sister said to get hot and heavy when you can, but moments before you try to walk on a tiny little bridge on the death mill is pretty bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oh yeah. She’s gonna fuck him later. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dylan??? Dylan, the guy who pulled out his good luck charm and said, “I’m going to get married right after I graduate”? Dylan, the guy who had no last name?? Dylan, who said he was a day from retiring and ended up doing a backflip off the itty bitty bridge? That Dylan???<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Way to work in a history dump. She does this for some time. And yeah, I love world building, but this is not<\/em> the way to show how your world works. I will not remember this. In fact, I will probably end up referencing this stupid screenshot repeatedly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dude, what’s your fucking problem? Violet, girl, you shoulda pushed him down the stairs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I wish she cut his dick off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 3 Annotations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Misread end of first paragraph as “beat him off”. Secondly, if Jack doesn’t heel turn and want her carnally I will be surprised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I wonder what disability she has? EDS? That’s the first one that comes to mind with stuff that just decides to fuck around and pop out and shit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Girl what, why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Yeah, gotta say, Mom really fucking sucks and she’s kind of the whole reason we have this book. This book would not exist if Mom weren’t an absolute garbage mother. Mom “No Child of Mine” out there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Jesus Christ, okay, great. It’s still so very stupid to just throw people into a meat grinder like this. What’s the ulterior motive? It’s very inefficient, to be throwing potential bodies for other work into what basically amounts as a killer game show. And for what? Super soldiers??<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Okay though it feels like an eldritch god type situation. Why else sacrifice all these people? The dragons appear to be watching the poor wee humans for entertainment, and then kill whomever doesn’t fit their tastes. Sure, the alliance was forged for mutual benefit, but really now. Is it truly in a nation’s best interest to send people with promise to die? And at the other end\u2014 are there really people who would approach this, knowing they could die at any time, who would run screaming knowing the alternative was death?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 4<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It still drives me insane that it’s a corset. Tell me more about your sexy outfit, Violet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There’s so many Capitalized Words for things. I suppose yes, they’re ceremonies, but man, jesus, stop it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Rhiannon is a good friend. “You’re gonna get laid? Gonna see your childhood friend who always makes eyes at you? Nice. I got you, babe.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Yeah okay, perfectly fine to promote homicidal intent in the strict hierarchies of a military. You don’t just force people to drop their personal vendettas and fight as a cohesive unit. You pit them against each other and tell them it’s perfectly acceptable to kill someone as long as no one is looking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dain wants to get his dick wet soooo baaaaad<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 5<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is the nicest thing she has ever said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

WOW dude, you don’t know that. I mean I know you were raised to be a scholar your entire life but there’s no reason to think that no one else could have made such an impression on him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Newsflash: y’all have been going on about DELETING people who are signing up to get these bonds going and people in this profession die like flies. Dragons gain a lot of power from being with people but yeah, just throw em in the meat grinder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Is this a cartoon?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Jack McAsshole at it again with his no-reason nastiness, placed to make Violet look smarter. And yeah, it turns out she is right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Word choice that gives away a writer’s age immediately. Millennial writing style. I’m also guilty of it, but she’s twenty in a fantasy setting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Seriously, please, why is your mom so dead set on you being here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

YEAH SURE, A SLAP ON THE WRIST FOR COMMITTING MURDER, AIGHT GUY, GO STAND IN THE CORNER! Are you fucking kidding me?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

More legal murder. At least this is an attempt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Yoink<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 6<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dain, dude. You’re trying not to be too dedicated to her shit, you know. And then you go screaming in like a nursemaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What the FUCK, Dain?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Literally everyone said to Mom, “Hey, this is a bad idea, and your girl has her heart set on following in her father’s footsteps.” And what did Mom say? “That guy is dead.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dude wants her outtie mcout out. And Violet has sunk cost now, I guess. I ain’t a quitter type attitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Nolon is my type. Also, I am amused by the phonetic slurring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Been there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

FINALLY! Throwing one out for the gays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Love that the author had to write in “as tradition dictates” because it’s perfectly reasonable to believe that Mom would just do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Brennan seems like a fun dude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chapter 7<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

BEGIN THE POISONING!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

What are the fucking odds? The one tree you pick, “your” tree, and everyone just stands underneath you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Uuugh. Love this shit. I say that facetiously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s so fucking stupid. These people are just trying to survive. Barring groupings of certain people is, well. BAD. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s fine, you think he’s super hot so that means you’re going to absolutely ride his hog later. Admire away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Oh, yeah, did I mention that it’s REQUIRED that these “marked ones” are placed into the most rigorous, most ruthless, most beat-you-into-much military quadrant? As punishment for the sins of their parents? They’re children of war, dude. I’m sure most of them die because of this. Perhaps even strengthens grudges. We’re already aware that this is a military state with very rigid ideals, and I hate the government that runs it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Y’all almost made it through a whole conversation without talking about her. I mean, everyone is pissed that Mom killed their parents and their families, and they’re very happy to saddle her with the blame. Oh wait. I wonder why that sounds familiar. Violence is a circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Handle with that dick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

LMAO of course the dude who is so hot and wants to kill you and has a super rare dragon and black hair and a mean streak a mile long has shadow powers. So does my dog<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have a D&D character who was like this, except he was a big ol’ slut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. How is she so “bad” at fighting if she can aim her daggers with pinpoint accuracy?<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. They may as well have just fucked right here. Violet, he is hitting on you. This is basic flirting 101 for villains.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Quit asking him out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    He’s making a joke, Violet.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Chapter 8<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    You have two very eligible bachelors to fuck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Rhiannon and Tara gay fucking confirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    My dude is obsessed with this. Cool it. They’re very intimate for best friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    He won’t stop trying to touch her face. I’m constantly thinking he is going to try to do the memory read power thing. As time goes on I like Dain less and less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Prof. Kaori seems like a neat teacher. I too wish to teach Dragons & You.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Hm. I wonder why those barriers are dying. Hmmm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Shut the FUCK up, Jack<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    You’re already into him, man. And he’s into you. Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    These are the stupidest names for different dragons by far. And since they’re SO smart and SO rare, Violet will get one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Jack wants the evil-looking super strong dragon. Jokes on you, murder machine, Violet is probably going to end up fucking one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    What, no one else is so important as your brother? I mean, he’s a cool dude and all, but c’mon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why is this dude always murder-this, murder-that. Have another personality trait, dipstick. Get a hobby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    I bet they can squeeze other organs as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    But why? Why is she so good at this? She just has an unnatural talent for it and it’s barely mentioned in the details about her training. She only trained for six months, dude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Chapter 9<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    This professor is kind of a dick. “You are all in for a treat”? Dude, it’s normal for people to absolutely go into a blood-hazed rage during these fights. They’re not dancing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Dain is back to clucking like a mother hen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    “He’s gonna kill me!” Pause. “He’s hot tho”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    I call my cat Violet this because she tried to stab one of my roommates with a toothpick, which was artfully placed point side up in the middle of his favorite seat. She also beats the shit out of her larger brothers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Why are you being a good teacher? Except that we already know that you’re a good dude, since you and Violet are going to eventually visit the bone zone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    This is sexual. The dagger is his penis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    You may as well just be fucking her right now, dude. This is just missionary with a top. I mean, I’m down, this book is supposed to be filthy, but in front of everyone? Wiggle those hips, bitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    She’s making it so terribly obvious. But as the professor’s habit, they do not give a shit. It works both ways, I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    No shit, sherlock, she knows. We have made it clear that she is very very smart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Dain be like, pretend you don’t know me, then ride her ass around like a scooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    So ultimately you’re just gonna do whatever it takes, including crush her pride, to try to get her to safety. Cool cool cool<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Dragons be like, “That dude is so bad I don’t even want to risk anyone else picking him.” You think they get into fights if a potential gets incinerated? Why such disdain? Are humans like bugs?

    Violet finds out someone else’s schemes every time she climbs a tree. Also, are you serious? They’re just going to go kill a dragon? Are they so confident that they could get away with that and still get bonded? Do they think the dragons won’t care?

    Also, I stopped to look up the author and found out that she has EDS, so I feel like I absolutely was correct in assuming Violet has EDS. She has so many pops and shit that I was wondering why she didn’t have more things to keep her joints in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Honestly stupid that saddles aren’t more common. Tairn just be out there beign a dad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Yeah, dude, unfortunately you need accommodation so fucking take it. Level the playing field. It’s fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Violet, dude, you spend every flight lesson falling off your dragon who thankfully is your new dad and therefore cares if you live or die, unlike at least half the dragons here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tairn still amuses me, at least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “She’s not like other girls. She’s a STRONG and INDEPENDENT woman.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    At last. No more chapters that are just like, “Today, I fell only thirty seven times\u2014 less than last time.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    She is going to use it today, and also, probably use it on Jack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    I feel like this is going to be a trend. She just looks around to assist. And also, yeah, called it. Jack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    What did I say? Liam is gonna die.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Yeah, girl, not happening. Liam IS dying. If not now? Later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Considering Tairn’s name\u2014 T\u00e0irneanach\u2014 means thunder, not surprised. I am grateful I went digging for someone doing pronunciation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    #stitch<\/a> with @Popverse rebecca yarros please hire an actual gaelic speaker for ur next book bc this is a joke babes xxx srsly tho im not saying no one can use gaelic but at least do a lil research!! so many american authors are guilty of this – fourth wing isnt even inspired by scotland or its folklore so why is there gaelic in it??? bc shes relying on a minority language to add depth to her story. at least pronounce the words right if u insist on writing a book using a language you cannot speak lol #fourthwing<\/a> #gaelic<\/a> #g\u00e0idhlig<\/a> #scottishgaelic<\/a> <\/p> \u266c original sound – muireann | books + gaelic\ud83e\udd0d<\/a> <\/section> <\/blockquote>
