Book Synopsis
Enter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Yarros.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders.

But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter—like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant.

She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise.

Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom's protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret.

Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda—because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

My Review
Here is my review of Fourth Wing - Dramatized Adaptation by Graphic Audio. I enjoyed reading Fourth Wing and was intrigued to explore the dramatized version. 
Most of the voice actors matched the voices I had imagined, although a few were slightly different. My favorite performance was by the voice actor for Tairn, who captured the essence of the mighty character perfectly. I particularly loved the deep, rich voice of LaMont Ridgell. 
After experiencing a Graphic Audio book, I found myself eager for more. My only issue was the chapter split in the middle of the story, which disrupted the flow. Fortunately, I could listen immediately and make a smooth transition to Part 2 since I was using The Libby App. 
I recommend giving the Dramatized Audio a chance if you enjoyed Fourth Wing; it offers an enjoyable experience while waiting for the Amazon series or Book 3.
