Review by Angel

This is an electrifying sequel that takes readers deeper into a world where survival is anything but guaranteed. Following Violet Sorrengail’s harrowing journey at Basgiath War College, this instalment ramps up the stakes with intricate political manoeuvring and brutal training. Everyone expected Violet to falter, but her resilience shines through as she faces the malevolent new vice commandant, who relishes reminding her of her perceived powerlessness. The training at Basgiath is not just a physical trial; it tests Violet’s mental fortitude, pushing her to her limits in a hostile environment. But Violet’s strength lies in her unwavering wit and iron will. What truly sets Iron Flame apart is the revelation of the hidden secrets at Basgiath War College. As Violet uncovers truths buried for centuries, the tension escalates, and the narrative becomes a gripping tale of loyalty, betrayal, and the fight for survival. With its captivating blend of political intrigue, fierce determination, and the unbreakable bond between dragon riders, Iron Flame is a phenomenal read that will have you on the edge of your seat.
