Publisher’s Summary
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 Empyrean series is best read in order:
Fourth Wing
Iron Flame

What Audible Listeners Are Saying
4/5 stars — “the perspective”
After waiting so long for this book, I loved hearing all the different perspectives. Ridoc Gamlyn made me laugh the most, while Liam and Sloane brought me to tears. Seeing how our favorite characters first bonded with their dragons was incredible.
I breezed through it, and now I’m even more eager for Rebecca’s next release—even though I know it will be a while.
Next, I plan to reread the entire Fourth Wing series. If anyone is just getting into it, I highly recommend reading Fourth Wing and Threshing Day simultaneously during the threshing scenes. That way, you can easily fill in the gaps as the characters split up!— Char, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “Rebecca. I’m obsessed “
Everything about this was fantastic. Only thing… Teddy is not my Xaden 😝 Fantastic, just not right in my mind.— Veronica Lambert, Audible listener
5/5 stars — “So good, but still not enough”
This was another presentation to show that we are all left wanting more. This novella is setup as a brief overview for each character like a the back of a baseball card. The bonding is always worth reading about, but I was hoping for more. We know they were all bonded through previous books in the series, so I was hoping for more into each characters storyline for how they came to be. But I am always wanting more with everything the author writes. Grateful as always, even though my inpatients as a fan sucks lol. Honor to Malik.— Kindle Customer, Audible listener
