Iron Flame is the second book in the Empyrean series. The first book, Fourth Wing follows Violet who has trained all her life to be a scribe. But when her mother demands she joins the war college to be a dragon rider, she finds herself thrown into a challenging situation. With her chronic illness and lack of strength, she finds herself having to fight to prove herself and live to become a dragon rider.
The way the ending of this book had me wanting to scream in the car when I listened to it. I know there was a lot of mixed reviews of this book but I absolutely loved it so much. I really loved seeing how Violet's realtionship with her fellow cadets and her relationship with Xaden developed. After the events of the last book I was so interested to see how this was going to develop. I thought that Rebecca Yarros did push a lot into this book but I found that it was pretty easy to follow. It makes me interested to see what the other books will have in store.
I found this to be a satisfying sequel to a book that I really loved. I am so interested to see what is going to happen in the next book.
