Publisher's summary

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College – Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky.

Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is – unless she betrays the man she loves.

Although Violet’s body might be weaker and frailer than everyone else’s, she still has her wits – and a will of iron. And leadership is forgetting the most important lesson Basgiath has taught her: Dragon riders make their own rules.

But a determination to survive won’t be enough this year.

Because Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries at Basgiath War College – and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

Wow...

The graphic audio makes these books even better. Voice acting is typically spot on and gives more life to these characters. The story has continued to hook me in and I can't wait to see what is in store for them in the next book after the cliff hanger they left us with

PART 2 WAS THE ABSOLUTE BEST

The battle music, the characters, the voice actors, the amount of love poured into this is felt and I was in TEARS! So good!!!!

Beautifully done! a true dragon tale that pulls you in!

I'm really loving the dramatized audio books that have been coming out! this is my far one of my favorites. parts and series in general!
The voice actors do such a fantastic job making this dragon tale come to life!

One of the Best Books I’ve Read

Really enjoyed the story. Very well written. You could feel the characters throughout the story.

Couldn’t stop listening!

Excellent storyline and exceptional graphic narration. Can’t wait to hear where this storyline goes in the next book. Counting the days until its release!

Amazing story line!!

I loved the story line and the romance but could definitely done without so much graphic sex scenes

Greatest Dragon Series of all time

This is by far the greatest of all fantasy and mythical series regarding dragons. Nothing can compare to the heroes and villains, character development, romance, power dynamics, laws of magic, and diverse kingdoms in this series. Thank you Rebecca Yarros. And thank you Graphic Audio for this movie in my mind.

Better performance than part 1

Not sure what changed, but the narrations were much better in part 2 than in part one. I’d say they are close to Fourth Wing level performances. Sgaeyl’s voice was, I believe, the same VA, but the voice was wrong, so that was disappointing. Gabriel Michael stepped up his game, a vast improvement over part one. (The throne scene 🥵🥵)

I hope all the VAs return for Onyx Storm.

Pulls you in

A wonderful story and an even better telling of it. The dramatic performances are perfect.

I CANNOT wait for Onyx Storm to come out

I read this book and listened to the audiobook for my reread and WOW. These audiobooks made me feel like I was in the story, and having the full cast helped me better keep track of who was talking. I was in my own little world for the few days I listened to this. PLEASE get the dramatized versions. They’re so worth it.
