Summary
Rain ran down his face as he looked her over. Logan stiffened, wondering if she was going to even get to cross the parapet. Maybe this was his way of getting back at Violet: killing a new friend.
“Can I help you?” Logan asked, swiping the rain off her forehead with the back of her hand.
Riorson scoffed, folding his arms over his chest. “Bit rude, don’t you think?”
She frowned. “What is?”
His mouth twitched into a smirk as he took a step forward, tilting his head as if to mock her.
“Trying to cross the parapet before saying hello to your brother.”

Violet is a high school teacher who games on the weekends with her friends. One night, they join an open server for a new game called Dragon's Empyrean, and chaos erupts.
Xaden is a YouTube streamer who doesn't show his face. He's streaming with Garrick, Imogen, Bodhi and Liam when Violet's crew joins, and for some reason, he's drawn to one of the other players.

Summary
Kirra Leinster is a 35-year-old disabled woman— Nope, scratch that.She was.
Kirra Leinster is now twenty, staring down the parapet to the Riders’ Quadrant armed with fifteen extra years of life experience and the kind of attitude problem you only get from being forced to pick yourself up.
She’s read these books. She knows how this story goes - and she wants off this train before her presence nudges it too far off the tracks.
The problem? Living with foreknowledge in a world that will kill you for your knowlege is a dangerous game, and if the wrong people figure out what she knows, or what she might be...
Well, she’s as good as dead.

Summary
The underground rings teach you the currency of your skin, but they can’t buy back what’s already been signed away. Athena Riorson survived her father’s execution, abandonment, and the pits by clinging to a broken mantra: Never let anyone own you. But autonomy is a luxury she’s already lost. Bound to a master before setting foot in the quadrant, her entire existence is a desperate act of defiance to reclaim her soul. At Basgiath's cutthroat Riders Quadrant, her strategy is to keep her head down. But Athena has never been good at staying unnoticed, especially not around Aaric Graycastle.
Steady where she is volatile and dangerously secretive, Aaric becomes impossible to avoid. The closer she gets to him, the more her world slips into unexplainable instincts, buried traditions, and a terrifying realization that something in her blood is not normal.
Athena finds herself fighting on three separate fronts: a war for the fate of Navarre, a war for the relationships she’s forced to navigate, and a war for her own mind. Survival isn't just about avoiding becoming a dragon's breakfast—it's surviving the messy, forced bonds that claim you.

The Lost Manuscript of Sara Tavis, Dragon Rider by Skyhopper13

Summary
If Imogen Cardulo was successful with what I asked her to do, then I no longer exist. At least, not to the rest of the world.
I had to run. To hide. It was the only option after what happened at Draithus. I had to do it to protect her. To protect Tyrrendor.
This manuscript will be my only legacy. The only evidence that Sara Tavis ever existed. I write it not for posterity. Not for glory. Not for the damned scribes to keep, or more likely alter. I write it for her. She deserves to know the truth of her parentage and her destiny.

Summary
Basgiath cadet Fenryn Zynd can mend in a way no one else can - by transferring the injuries sustained by riders (and their dragons) onto/into her own body before mending herself.
She's hidden in plain sight until her dragon flies her straight to the Battle of Resson. Unable to allow Liam to die, she intervenes. After saving Liam by mending Deigh, she's thrust into the world of the Revolution while uncovering the secrets of her own past and coming to terms with the power of her signet.
The story follows Fenryn from the Battle of Resson at the end of Fourth Wing, following Iron Flame and soon Onyx Storm (so contains multiple spoilers!).
Has a mild why choose arc with Bodhi and Liam, but main love story is slow burn.
Iron Flame ends at chapter 70. Chapter 71 onwards is Onyx Storm.

Fight the truth, or Die for a Lie. (Iron Flame from Xaden's sister's perspective) by Charley2511

Summary
Ravyn and Xaden Riorson have survived three years of Basgiath. Great, right? They thought they might just be free. But then they're sent to Samara, the deadliest outpost on the frontlines, unheard of for a first Lieutenant. But that's the easy part. They're surrounded by riders who refuse to trust them, all because of a relic on their body, and their parents actions. They fight for respect every day, and they fight to not be killed by their own squadmates on patrol. On top of that, both of them are fighting for their relationships. Xaden, fighting for Violet's trust back. Ravyn, fighting to be able to trust her lover of six years. She doesn't know if she can, and that's somehow the least of her issues.
Expected to be Navarrian rider by day, Tyrrish Aristocrat by night, they lead a revolution that could ultimately damn them all if caught. And being the very thing they're fighting against? It's fucking with every move she makes. Secrets are building, trust is deteriorating, and worst of all, Major Varrish is gunning for a second chance at the information he didn't get from her. She's fighting on every front, and for some battles she's got no support. And others? She's got too much help she doesn't know what to do with it.Series

Fourth Wing: Xaden Riorson POV by as_my_last

Summary
Fourth Wing from Xaden Riorson's POV. Written after release of Fourth Wing, Iron Flame, AND Onyx Storm. (Spoilers!)
A retelling of Fourth Wing from Xaden Riorson’s point of view with all the knowledge we have to date (in other words, through Onyx Storm). Honestly, I think the best way to read my posts is by reading the concurring Chapter in Fourth Wing first. A lot of the dialogue is canon Fourth Wing, but I have added a view of Xaden concurring with Violet's timeline in the book, so we see him outside the bounds of what Violet does and hopefully (if I'm doing a good job) we will have insights into Xaden's actions in Fourth Wing.
Thank you to Queen Rebecca Yarros for inspiring me to want this version of the story for myself. All characters and true canon belong to her.

---
She's the princess that was left for the dragons to kill.
She's the one who should've died at ten.
Instead, she bonded with the rarest of them all - a Black Daggertail - at ten.
She'll come back and enter the door that has been closed for most of her life.
And you'd do better to run in the opposite direction, because under the niceties lies something else - a lethal coldness - something that kills effortlessly.No one knows about the many secrets that she keeps.
And maybe that's good.
It is safer like that.
No one will get killed.
Hopefully, at least.---

Summary
Two years after her father’s death, Violet Sorrengail enters the Riders Quadrant with more knowledge than she should have, far less training than she needs, and a locked journal full of secrets she can barely begin to understand. Fresh off a breakup with the heir to Navarre, she isn’t looking for complications, but nothing prepares her for Xaden Riorson, or the dangerous ease they fall into with each other.
When her power manifests early and pulls her into Xaden’s dreams, Violet sees something she was never meant to: a wardstone, forbidden runes, and proof that her father’s work may be closer, and more dangerous, than she ever imagined.
Or: Violet manifests her dream-walking signet early, walks into one of Xaden’s dreams, and makes everyone’s lives significantly more complicated.

Summary
“In the hour of the doom, when the stars turn red as bleeding eyes, the Three Headed Dragon shall arise. They shall not bond to the sky, nor shall they be consumed by the ground, but shall stand as the Thief of Both Realms.
Heart of the Siphon.
Blood of the Leech.
With a blade forged in rebellion’s fire and quenched in the venom of the earth, they shall turn the hunger against the hungry. Darkness shall flee, for how can the night hide from one who is its own master? Come forth, Shadow-Kin, and take your stolen light!”
The Last Recorded Words of Thareux, the First Bonded Dragon of the Dubhmadinn Line

Summary
After surviving her first brutal year at Basgiath War College, Violet assumed the worst of her troubles were venin, lying to her friends, and Xaden fucking Riorson. But Basgiath isn’t done breaking her yet. Her trust is fractured. Her enemies are in power. Her superiors want her dead.
Then comes parapet—again.
As the new first-years begin to fall, two of them refuse to play by the rules. Kyle and Aline Acier aren’t just surviving—they’re dismantling the system from the inside. With scars that hide darker pasts and power that shouldn’t exist, the Acier siblings crash into Violet’s already messy world and sink their teeth into Basgiath's hierarchy. Both are dangerous. Both are keeping secrets. And both are about to turn Basgiath inside out.
Now Violet isn’t just fighting for her life.
She’s fighting to decide who she can trust, who she can save…
…and who might break her in ways no enemy ever could.
“You’re going to get yourself killed,” I murmur.
“Then you can mourn me,” he mutters. “But I need you to live today to do that.”

Summary
I’m a master of pain,
and Andarna’s loss is the deepest I’ve ever had to mask in order to survive.I am the master of pain, and the loss of all my loved ones has cost me everything.
Including my sanity. Especially that.
Violet Sorrengail was meant to die.
She knew it. She had made her peace with it. One life for thousands. One final surge of lightning to end the venin and their corruption forever. The cost was supposed to be simple.
However, Violet, being the stubborn ass girl she is, defied all odds against Malek and lived.
Her sacrifice cured all the venin; brought back those who were killed to walk the face of the Continent once again.
Including Xaden Riorson. Duke of Tyrrendor, shadow wielder, but most importantly...her husband.
But, was it really worth it? Or is there more to the story than what meets the eye?

Summary
People often wonder if Bodhi has eyes for Violet… but what if it wasn’t actually her that he was looking at? What if he only tries spending time with her in the hopes of getting closer to her friend?
A collection of one-shots (plus one context chapter) about Bodhi and Ridoc that mildly follow the plot of the first and second book. *The major character death is just a mention and is in the part titled “The Office”*
Also just a note for returning readers that when I post new chapters, they might not be posted as the last chapter. I’m going to try and keep them ordered in the chronological sequence of events, so just be aware!

Summary
In another age, the flames took everything.
A scream swallowed by smoke.
A vow forged in ruin.
A memory sealed in silence.
The centuries passed. The world rebuilt. Legends thinned into whispers.
But some things do not die.
Now, as riders step into the quadrant and dragons mark the chosen, a forgotten ember draws breath. He walks among them—scarred, watchful, carrying a past the world was never meant to remember.
With him comes fire.
With him comes ash.
With him comes the reckoning of what was buried.

Summary
Rhiannon Matthias didn't want to move away from the border of Cygnisen, away from her family, but her ancestor - Queen Amari - had left an estate which had been unclaimed for years, and Raegan was expecting a baby boy soon, so Rhiannon went to keep her sister from a long, stressful journey, which was just as boring.
But when Rhiannon finally gets to the estate, it's already been 'claimed.'
Claimed by a coven strong, terrifying, and equally beautiful vampires, who could snap and drain her dry of her blood at any moment, whether she senses it coming, or when she's vulnerable in her sleep.And that one with the rose-gold hair is, if not, the worst of them all.
