Threshing Day
⚡The book you didn’t know you needed is here. One legendary day. One choice that changes everything.
Featuring 15 original full-color illustrations by artist Joe Requeza.
Welcome to the Threshing, the brutal trial where future riders of Basgiath War College will fight to bond with a dragon or die trying. Amid dragonfire, these thirteen cadets must battle to survive on a bloody battlefield where ruthless rivals will do everything they can to outmatch them, and the dragons will decide each of their fates. Any choice can make them riders... or destroy them.
Xaden Riorson, the powerful leader. Rhiannon Matthias, the clever friend. Dain Aetos, the loyal follower. Liam Mairi, the protector. Ridoc Gamlyn, the joker. Sawyer Henrick, the underdog. Garrick Tavis, the dependable ally. Imogen Cardulo, the reckless warrior. Bodhi Durran, the second-in-command. Mira Sorrengail, the fearless rider. Brennan Sorrengail, the brilliant strategist. Aaric Graycastle, the discontented noble. Sloane Mairi, the determined sister. Thirteen stories starring your favorite characters and their dragons.
There is only one rule in the Threshing: don't die.
While The Threshing Day is a fantastic way to explore the Empyrean Series, please note that it contains spoilers for the previous books. If you want to avoid them, it is best read after Onyx Storm.
This book will be available for purchase at the event.
