"The first year is when some of us lose our lives. The second year is when the rest of us lose our humanity." —Xaden Riorson
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.
The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.

Tweede deel van de serie The Fourth Wing. Dat is de naam van het onderdeel van de krijgsmacht waar Violet en Xaden deel van uitmaken. Violet is de dochter van Lilith, een van de generaals en Xaden de zoon van de rebellenleider. Alle rebellen zijn geëxecuteerd en hun kinderen zijn toegelaten tot de Rijder-opleiding als zij eenmaal de juiste leeftijd hebben bereikt. Er zijn 3 leerjaren en in dit boek zitten Violet en Xaden in het tweede leerjaar en ze zijn nog even verliefd op elkaar. Er zitten ook wel wat vrij-scenes in die best expliciet zijn, maar die scan ik diagonaal door.
De wyvern, een soort draken, en hun rijders, Venims genoemd, zijn op oorlogspad en Violet en haar vrienden moeten er alles aan doen om een totale vernietiging tegen te gaan. Ondertussen zoekt Violet naar een manier om de schilden rondom bepaalde deles van het land weer werkzaam te maken. Dat kan hun enige redmiddel zijn. Maar ook de opleiding gaat gewoon door, met alle opdrachten en krachtmetingen van dien. Ik vind deze boeken erg spannend en goed leesbaar, hoewel ik wel vaker foutjes vind in de vertaling. Woorden die ontbreken en een beetje kromme zinnen die eerder het Engels volgen dan zijn omgezet naar het NED. Maar een kniesoor die daar (te veel) op let. Nu is het wachten op deel 3. ( )

BK2 of the Empyrean Series

It is the second year of the rider's training and it is even more brutal and demanding than the first. There is dismounting your dragon without them landing, there is surviving torture and interrogation and map reading on land (I've always found that the trickiest of the three!). However, Violet has a secret about the wyverns which the citizens do not know about and this has to be hidden at all times. This book definitely had the second in a trilogy feel (I don't know if this series is a trilogy, this book just felt like it was a bridge between the first and last book).

What did I like about it?

The action was constant and varied and we got to see new places

the build up to Violet starting to gain control of her skills

Violet starting to become a leader

What didn't I like?

repetitive romance - fight and then give in

stereotypical ex-girlfriend relationship with Violet

too long. I gave up about 2/3 of the way in and jumped to the end

some of the characters were a bit Harry Potterish - the baddie in the role of the new Vice Commandant

nothing very unexpected in the plot and you can see where the next book is going.

Not a great book. ( )

I felt like it dragged on forever, no clue why this series is so popular. Why did I read this? Who knows. It's a mystery. ( )

Todos esperaban que Violet Sorrengail muriera en su primer año en el Colegio de Guerra de Basgiath; incluso ella misma. Pero la Trilla fue tan solo la primera de una serie de pruebas imposibles destinadas a deshacerse de los pusilánimes; los indignos y los desafortunados. Ahora comienza el verdadero entrenamiento y Violet no sabe cómo logrará superarlo. No solo porque es brutal y agotador ni porque está diseñado para llevar al límite el umbral del dolor de los jinetes; sino porque el nuevo vicecomandante está empeñado en demostrar a Violet lo débil que es a menos que traicione al hombre que ama. Aunque el cuerpo de Violet es más frágil que el de sus compañeros; su fuerza radica en su ingenio y voluntad de hierro. Además; los líderes están olvidando la lección más importante que Basgiath les ha enseñado: los jinetes de dragones crean sus propias reglas. La voluntad de sobrevivir no será suficiente este año; porque Violet conoce el secreto que se oculta entre los muros del colegio y nada; ni siquiera el fuego de dragón; será suficiente para salvarlos.
