__________________________________________

Welcome to the brutal and elite world of Basgiath War College . . .

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.

Everyone at Basgiath has an agenda, and every night could be your last. So, sleep with one eye open because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.

__________________________________________

OVER A QUARTER OF A MILLION READERS HAVE ALREADY GIVEN FOURTH WING FIVE STARS. ARE YOU READY TO ENTER THE WORLD OF BASGIATH WAR COLLEGE?



'If I can convince you to read one book I recommend it would be this one'

'I didn't sleep, I didn't eat, and when I finished, I had the overwhelming urge to just start it all over again'

'This book is probably the best fantasy book I have ever read'

'FIVE. FREAKING. STARS. There is no universe where I could give this book any less of a rating'

'There are some stories you read and enjoy but every so often you come across one that just obliterates everything and takes over your entire being within a few pages and becomes your world and personality. Well, this is the one'

'The world building in this was phenomenal. I lived, breathed and became a part of the college'

'You know when you finish a book, and it leaves an ache in your chest because it was so good, and now it's over? That's exactly how I feel after finishing Fourth Wing'

Über den Autor Rebecca Yarros

Rebecca Yarros ist die Platz 1 'New York Times'-, 'Wall Street Journal'-, 'USA Today'- und auch international erfolgreiche Bestsellerautorin von einer Vielzahl von Romanen, darunter Fourth Wing und The Last Letter, die von 'Publishers Weekly' mit mehreren Sternen ausgezeichnet und von 'Kirkus' zum Buch des Jahres gekürt wurden. Sie liebt Militärhelden und ist seit über zwanzig Jahren glücklich mit ihrem eigenen verheiratet. Als Mutter von sechs Kindern überlebt sie derzeit die Teenagerjahre mit zwei ihrer vier Eishockey spielenden Söhne. Wenn sie nicht gerade schreibt, findet man sie neben dem Eishockeyplatz oder heimlich Gitarre spielend, während sie Kaffee schlürft. Sie und ihre Familie leben in Colorado mit ihren sturen englischen Bulldoggen, zwei temperamentvollen Chinchillas und einer Maine-Coon-Katze namens Artemis, die sie alle beherrscht. Nachdem sie ihre jüngste Tochter als Pflegekind aufgenommen und dann adoptiert hat, engagiert Rebecca sich leidenschaftlich für Kinder im staatlichen Pflegesystem durch ihre gemeinnützige Organisation 'One October', die sie 2019 gemeinsam mit ihrem Mann gegründet hat. Mehr über ihre Ziele zur Verbesserung der Lebensumstände von Kindern in Pflegefamilien erfährt man auf www.oneoctober.org.Michelle Gyo studierte in Mainz Germanistik und Buchwissenschaft und arbeitete danach als Lektorin bei namhaften Verlagen. Aus Neugier machte sie sich nach zehn Jahren Verlagsarbeit selbstständig und übersetzt und lektoriert seitdem fesselnde Geschichten. Sie lebt und liest, wo sie will, wandert häufig durch fantastische Welten und kann ohne Kaffee, Katzen und Kreativität nicht sein.Julia Schwenk hat Neuere Deutsche Literaturwissenschaft und Mediävistik studiert. Sprache ist ihre große Leidenschaft, die sie als Verlegerin, Übersetzerin und Lektorin zum Beruf gemacht hat. Wenn sie nicht gerade wie Gollum auf ihrer Couch über dem Arbeitsnetbook kauert, macht sie Handarbeitsforen unsicher, schaut YouTube leer oder plant die Übernahme der übersetzerischen Weltherrschaft - und ist dabei immer auf der Jagd nach dem nächsten spannenden Projekt.
