Iron Flame - THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING SEQUEL TO THE GLOBAL PHENOMENON, FOURTH WING

Product Information

When I read FW, I thought Yarros'd made her a bit of a Mary Sue, but that was okay, because she had obvious flaws, even she was aware of, to balance her randomly having every special skill on the menu and succeding in every single task she was burdened with. Book three, man! I love Andarna. I think it’s fun that she’s a teenager, too. And she eats everything because I have teenage boys and my editor is like, why is she eating everything, and I’m like, have you ever been with teenagers? She’s eating all the sheep, and I love that Brennan is like, how do I find enough sheep? There are logical questions when Violet brings the entire riot to Aretia and Brennan is like, how do I feed you? But everything regarding Andarna is coming. That is not an “Iron Flame” question, my dear.

Just 56 days until “Iron Flame” hits books shelves and e-readers everywhere — c’mon, like you’re not counting? — but author Rebecca Yarros has gifted a little teaser to keep you warm.

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.

There are a couple bonus chapters in the new special edition of “Fourth Wing”— what do the bonus scenes reveal and is it key information you need for “Iron Flame”? He’s turning. So you go through the epigraphs, and there’s certain degrees,” Yarros told Varietyin a sitdown interview Monday, just ahead of “Iron Flame’s” Tuesday release. “One of the things I love to play with is that absolute power corrupts absolutely, and that when you want magic and you can’t have it because you haven’t been chosen by a dragon or a griffin, what will you pay for it? And people will pay with their souls. You see it in our society, all the time, people will sell their souls for power. So it’s a matter of, how much of his soul did he exchange? And once you start, how do you stop and is it an addiction?” She also retains her memories of when her egg was formed and so knew that she was left behind so she could be used should Navarre need to rebuild the wards again. As far as we know, she is the only one left of her kind. She is the head of her den and it’s why no one questions her decision when she decides to bond. How did you decide to do a part one and part two for “Iron Flame,” and did you ever consider making part two into the third book in the series instead?

Violet and Xaden took the book world by storm in Fourth Wing, and we’re so excited to bring you a matching edition of the sequel: Iron Flame!

Empyrean series continues with midnight release of Iron Flame". FOX 17 West Michigan News (WXMI). November 2, 2023 . Retrieved November 9, 2023. And then I just kind of tried to forget about it, because everything else was out of my hands. But it was wild to think this book wasn’t even out yet and it had already been optioned and then you have to sit on that and not tell anybody. And I figured, well, maybe the book will do OK, because it has this option deal — but a lot of things get options and never made. And then everything just kept snowballing bigger and bigger and bigger and we were going to announce on release day, which was also this first day of the writers strike. And you never want to add pressure, so you’re like, absolutely, the writers need to do this and we’re gonna support this and off you go and get this done. And then the writers came out of strike, and we just kind of waited. And then it was wild when it came out. How much of Dain’s arc did you have planned for the start? I know some fans were afraid of having a “Tamlin situation” (from Sarah J. Maas’“A Court of Thorns and Roses” series) with Xaden as the love interest in book one and concerns about a possible redemption for Dain, which he does get in “Iron Flame,” but it does not lead into a romantic relationship with Violet or an end to Violet and Xaden.

I would rather lose this entire war than live without, and if that means I have to prove myself over and over, then I'll do it. You gave me your heart, and I'm keeping it." So, I love dragons. I don't know anyone who doesn't — us fantasy girlies, right? I grew up reading a ton of fantasy. I knew my publisher was looking for romantasy in that new-adult line — and I love new adult, I think it's such an unexplored genre. There are not a lot of books that deal with people in that period between adolescence and adulthood. I love that sweet spot. So knowing that I could definitely build it on a romance, I was in love with the forced proximity of the romance being between their dragons and not necessarily (the characters). And everybody loves a morally gray hero, so I definitely had to have that one. And because I majored in history in college, it was really, really fun to explore those themes of who would get to write down our history and what would happen, perhaps, if the history we were educated on is not accurate. If I had that type of influence, I most certainly wouldn't be spending my spare moments reviewing books for free.
