What's the Empyrean Series About?

Initially described as "Harry Potter with dragons," Fourth Wing quickly evolves into a more Twilight-esque magical fantasy romance with explicit details. Violet Sorrengail, a seemingly delicate young woman, is compelled by her powerful mother to join a perilous dragon rider academy. Violet must overcome personal weaknesses, navigate complex relationships (including a potentially hostile rival), and unravel a larger mystery involving dragons and her world—all amidst a passionate romance.
