Rebecca Yarros’s Fourth Wing series, also known as the Empyrean series, is available free on Hoopla with your library card. Experience the thrill of dragon riders and adventure through immersive dramatized adaptations or enjoy the original audiobooks—all with no waiting.
What is a Dramatized Adaptation?
While standard audiobooks are read by one person, a dramatized adaptation has a full cast of readers, each taking the part of a different character of the book. It’s a dramatic reading like you might hear on a podcast and truly makes the story come alive. Hoopla has the dramatic adaptations of Fourth Wing, Onyx Storm, and Iron Flame. It’s an incredibly immersive way to experience the Fourth Wing series, even if you’ve read it before.
What’s the Fourth Wing book order?
The best way to experience the Empyrean series is to read the books in the order they were published, which is:
Book 1: Fourth Wing
Book 2: Iron Flame
Book 3: Onyx Storm
This reading order will give you the full, rich experience of the Empyrean universe. Hoopla has the dramatic interpretations of all three of the books in the Empyrean series on audiobook.
