About this listen

After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there’s no more time for lessons. No more time for uncertainty.

Because the battle has truly begun, and with enemies closing in from outside their walls and within their ranks, it’s impossible to know who to trust.

Now Violet must journey beyond the failing Aretian wards to seek allies from unfamiliar lands to stand with Navarre. The trip will test every bit of her wit, luck, and strength, but she will do anything to save what she loves—her dragons, her family, her home, and him.

Even if it means keeping a secret so big, it could destroy everything.

They need an army. They need power. They need magic. And they need the one thing only Violet can find—the truth.

But a storm is coming...and not everyone can survive its wrath.

The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.

Great continuation of the story, a real roller-coaster of emotion. I just don't understand why a traditionally published best selling series isn't done as a Duet narration. Especially when there is multiple narrators for different POV, it just doesn't make sense not to be duet. The main narrator was good but the voices were all over the place and took me out of the story at times.

I was really looking forward to book 3 of the Empyrean series. I was a little concerned in the first quarter of the book as it felt like there was so much chaos, with not as much interaction between Xaden and Violet. I missed first-hand Xaden in this part of the storyline.

There was a lot of action in this book, with Violet and her squad being sent out of deadly missions by Dain's father.

A lot of new places were introduced in this book.

I felt like the true nature of the series really came into this book as I read on. It was easy to dive deep into this series again, and I'm once again eager to read book 4 upon its release.

This was my first experience of listening to the standard audio in this series, having previously listened to the dramatised adaptation for FW and IF previously. The majority of this book was from Violet's POV with only a small contribution by Teddy Hamilton at the end.

Complete chaos with a return of the squad

Such a wonderful performance! Loved every minute and especially loved hearing Xanden and Imogen in the chapters too! I'm tempted to buy the dramatised version when it is out!

Great connection between Iron Flame to Onyx Storm, so glad it’s on Audible or I would’ve struggled reading it (lol)
Only down side is the last few chapters with changing narrators. Main narrator Rebecca is FABULOUS 💕

Story line was great!

Wow, what a third story, Rebecca yarros keeps on delivering, the suspence, the battles the storyline is amazing. Was heart wrenching in places. and eye opening in others. Violet lives up to her family expectations. with mystery added in for good measure.

Keeps on delivering

It suffers a little from third book syndrome (story moves along but nothing really gets resolved) but otherwise it was great. Cant wait for the graphic audio to drop.

That ending….
