Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College â 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 Violetâs already wondering how sheâll get through. Itâs not just that itâs grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that itâs designed to stretch the ridersâ capacity for pain beyond endurance. Itâs the new vice commandant, whoâs made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is â unless she betrays the man she loves.
Although Violetâs body might be weaker and frailer than everyone elseâs, she still has her wits â 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 wonât be enough this year.
Because Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries at Basgiath War College â and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.
