Fourth Wing meets The Atlas Six in this epic fantasy set in an elite university, where four students test their mettle to become part of an elite order of dragon riders. Eshtem University has long stood as a pillar of equal opportunity, a place that any youth of Ellyrian can apply to to become part of the Edrei, an elite order of dragon-riding, magic-wielding peacekeepers. High Prince Jadon seeks an escape from his father’s political machinations. Though his recklessness attracts respect from several classmates, it also nurtures the ire of others, including Jenne, a common born student whose seeks to recall memories that she purposely wiped before the start of term. Smitten with Jenne, Diar finds himself increasingly torn between allegiances to his heart, his religion and the house Noraani. And as the first Noraani royal to attend Eshtem in a century, Princess Christina is determined to not let anyone – or anything – stand in her way. But as evidence of corruption surfaces within the order, the students will have to re-examine their future and the roles they wish to play as an Edrei… if they aren’t expelled first.
