Are you waiting for Onyx Storm, the hottest title in adult fiction in at least 20 years? You are not alone!
In the meantime, we have these suggestions for books you might enjoy while waiting to find out what happens next to Violet, Xaden and the other characters from Fourth Wing and Iron Flame.
Many, but not all, involve magic. Most, but not all, include romance. A few of them take place at a school. A couple of them feature dragons.
All of them come recommended by library staff who found them engrossing reads and worth a look while you wait for your turn to read Onyx Storm. We hear your enthusiasm for the book, by the way, and we’ve been adding copies as we can.
We hope these great reads will lead to some new favorites while you wait.
