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.Everyone at Basgiath has an agenda, and every night could be your last. So, sleep with one eye open because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die.__________________________________________ OVER A QUARTER OF A MILLION READERS HAVE ALREADY GIVEN FOURTH WING FIVE STARS.

Three brothers went to war. Two came home. Seven years after burying his little brother, Sullivan, Camden Daniels returns to Alba, Colorado, and the father who still blames him for Sullivan's death on the days he can remember who Camden is. On the days he can't, the town remembers plenty, and even a decade of military service can't erase the reputation Camden earned in Alba. Willow Bradley grew up tagging along with the Daniels boys, until she lost her heart to the wrong one. When Camden returns unexpectedly, her carefully buried feelings reawaken in the heart their town believes should still belong to Sullivan. But early-onset Alzheimer's is robbing Camden's father of time, and Cam finds himself fighting another war, this time against his other living brother. As Camden struggles to battle for his father's wishes, the town takes sides, challenging family loyalties and the past they thought they knew. And giving in to his feelings for Willow could destroy what little support Cam has in town and cost his father what choices he has left. Great and Precious Things is about free will, from the labels we're given in our youth, to the power we claim in defining ourselves, and how far we're willing to go on behalf of those who lose it.
