Description

Welcome to Threshing Day, the brutal, high-stakes trial where would-be riders at Basgiath War College fight to earn the bond of a dragon or die trying. Amid ruthless competition and dragon fire, these thirteen cadets must survive a battlefield where desperate rivals will do anything to gain an advantage and dragons decide one’s ultimate fate—and where a single choice can forge a rider…or destroy them.

Xaden Riorson, the powerful leader. Rhiannon Matthias, the clever friend. Dain Aetos, the dutiful rule-follower. Liam Mairi, the kindhearted protector. Ridoc Gamlyn, the jokester. Sawyer Henrick, the underdog. Garrick Tavis, the dependable aide. Imogen Cardulo, the impulsive fighter. Bodhi Durran, the second-in-command. Mira Sorrengail, the fearless rider. Brennan Sorrengail, the brilliant tactician. Aaric Graycastle, the restless royal. Sloane Mairi, the determined sister.

On Threshing Day, there’s only one rule: don’t die.

The ebook edition of Threshing Day features fifteen beautiful original black-and-white illustrations by artist Joe Requeza.

The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.
Reading Order:
Book #1 Fourth Wing
Book #2 Iron Flame
Book #3 Onyx Storm

Though Threshing Day can be enjoyed as an introduction to the series, due to contained spoilers, it is best read after Onyx Storm.

    Initially I was SO beyond disappointed this wasn’t the next book in the series after finishing the last book, but decided to read it anyway. Once you get over that it’s a longer wait until the next book in the series, you’ll love it too! I loved getting more of a backstory on the other characters and seeing why they ended up with their signets and dragons. Looooved it and sad it went so fast!

  • This is exactly what the title says, threshing day.

    I’m a huge fan of Rebecca Yarros. I’ve loved every one of her books. I quite enjoyed this one, but expected the story of what came after rather than a review of what happened on threshing day. It did bring me closer to each character and their relationship with their dragon.

  • Very disappointed

    Of af all the ways to add to the series this feels lize the lazyest.

  • Fun but unfilling

    This is not a book with a plot or continuation of the story. It is a “filler” with each chapter providing the specific bonding experience of the characters, except Violet, during Threshing. Some of the stories more fun than others, but, why is the author spending time doing this instead of furthering the original story? There’s nothing of significance here that we don’t already know or suspect.

  • Lovelovelove!

    Eagerly waiting for book 4 of the series and instead this book gives you everyone’s threshing day experience. It could have been added later.

  • Disappointed not a continuation…

    Not worth it. Story not continued. Very disappointed, especially for the price. Hope they can get next out asap.

    Yarros is an excellent writer and even though I really enjoyed this book I was also disappointed expecting a continuation to the cliff hanger of book three. Still waiting to that continuation of the story.

  • Great book
