After the massive success of Fourth Wing, not only among the most devoted readers but also among booktubers, its highly anticipated sequel, Iron Flame, has arrived, where we not only have Violet and Xaden back but also their entire circle.

The new volume will arrive in late January in the United States through Entangled Publishing, and as the author revealed on Good Morning America, it will tie up the loose ends left in Iron Flame.

However, this time we will see a more political aspect, new adventures, old enemies, and of course, many dragons. It’s time for Xaden and Violet to face the consequences left by the war and prepare for the real battle.

As with all the author’s successes, the novel will also be translated into Spanish and other languages. It will reach Spain during 2025, but the exact date has not yet been confirmed.

Is Onyx Storm available for pre-sale now?

Yes! The pre-sale of Onyx Storm is already available in the United States, and you can find the hardcover version on Amazon for $19.78, or the Kindle version is a bit cheaper and you can get it for $14.99.

Without a doubt, 2025 will be a great year for Rebecca Yarros’ readers. In addition to the new book, the writer confirmed a few months ago that the adaptation of Fourth Wing into a series is in development with Amazon Studios.
