    Summary

    When something happens to the original planner of Aretia's annual Christmas Eve Ball (which is also being used to formally announce the new duke), said new duke Xaden Riorson has to scramble to find a replacement.

    Halden Tauri doesn't want his girlfriend, event planner Violet Sorrengail, to work in general ... much less take on some last minute gig in Aretia. But Violet loves her job and chooses to go as a favor to her boss, completely unaware of the magic waiting for her in the Christmas Capital of Amaralys ...

    Summary

    Xaden Riorson thought he had figured out how to survive in this place. Now in his final year at Basgiath War College, he’s risen to the rank of Wingleader. He is focused on one thing: getting every kid of the rebellion bonded to a dragon. Then the real work can begin.

    But he hadn’t counted on Violet Sorrengail, the General’s daughter, entering the Rider’s Quadrant. She’s not supposed to be here and she’s about to throw every plan he has made into chaos. Can he trust her? And more importantly, can he trust himself?

    This follows the dialogue and events of Rebecca Yarros’s Fourth Wing, retold from Xaden’s perspective. This was written prior to the release of Iron Flame, so all theories and speculation are my own and unconfirmed. It's my best guess at exploring how Xaden might have felt throughout the story and features new scenes with Liam, Garrick, Imogen, Sgaeyl and Tairn. Major plot spoilers from the very first chapter.

    All rights belong to Rebecca Yarros – thank you for building this world and introducing us to these incredible characters!
