[Book 1 of 2]

     Every year, swaths of 20-year-olds descend upon a college campus.  Unfortunately, this college specializes in war, in consideration of the one raging at its borders.  Outposts and enemies line the eastern mountains, guarded by many from the army, but most notably, the Dragon Riders.  

     Zilphyer's future was determined long before she was born.  As far as she was concerned, none of that destiny included Basgiath; not after she watched her grandfather descend into mad ramblings from his battles after bonding a dragon, then fell to the whims of a power-hungry Colonel who would do anything to hurt her.  The quadrant destroyed the good and empowered the bad, and she wanted nothing to do with it, no matter what her name spelled.  

     Xaden Riorson's future was clear, no Basgiath or dragons in sight.  That was, until he was 16, when his father's apostasy-turned-secession fell apart; his home was burned; and his father went missing, only to be reported by someone he thought was an ally, then murdered.  

     Unfortunately for both of them, Basgiath wouldn't let them off so easily.  
     Xaden had a two year head start and became a Wingleader, ready-and willing-to sacrifice anything to fulfill his goals.  Some may call them selfish and many call him ruthless, but he's no stranger to prescribed titles.  
     Zilphyer stood before the bridge, but she had no intention of making it across.  Her ruined future and unstable life would be given to a cause much more worthy than the torture of Basgiath: her mother, her father, and her patron: Zihnal, the God of Chaos.All Rights Reserved

THE HEIR OF STORMS | Garrick Tavis by padfootxxx

Illena Draekar had no idea why she applied to be a dragon rider. She had her reasons, of course. But her reasons were a secret, and Illena was so full of them that she didn't know anymore what was a secret and what was just a fact. She had a plan, that was a fact. But the plan itself was a secret. The war was getting worse, that was a fact, and was also a fact that Illena was the one to blame for that. Which war? That was a secret. Why she was the one to blame? Also a secret. Why she had so many secrets and so many facts? Well, that's a secret. But I'll give you a fact: she thinks it's time to fight. And what better place to begin than Basgiath? The marked ones were there. The dragons were there, the professors, the weapons, the lies, the reasons, they were all there. The only thing she did not expect to be there was love. But love was for children, and Garrick surely wasn't one. Illena may have fallen in love with him, anyway. But that was a secret as well. And also a fact. (This is a Fourth Wing fanfiction, the characters and the story belongs to Rebecca Yarros, only the main character, Illena, is original)

Viper | Garrick Tavis by tonysnarky

Eleanor "Len" Lennox is a survivor. Scarred, feral, and feared by all, she thrives in the chaos of Basgiath War College. When she bonds with Noxarathian-an ancient, deadly white dragon known for killing his riders-Len becomes something extraordinary. Together, they wield Shadowfire, a destructive power capable of annihilating the Venin threatening Navarre. But beneath her terrifying reputation lies a fractured soul. Len keeps her scars, her pain, and her dark past hidden, even from her closest friends, Xaden Riorson and Bodhi Durran. The only person who dares to break through her walls is Garrick Tavis, the one man who might teach her what it means to love-and to heal. As rebellion brews and the Venin's power grows, Len must embrace the shadows within her. Because saving the people she loves might demand the ultimate sacrifice.

Whisper [Fourth Wing] by itslokistrange3

Book One ~ Most cadets lose their lives during their first year. Fifteen Percent of those lost it on the parapet. Another seventy-five percent would never make it to their graduation. Those were the statistics that had stuck in Kyna's mind through her first year. It was those statistics that held her back from watching the cadets, her cadets, crossing the parapet the following year. Xaden Riorson x fem!OC male!OC x Violet Sorrengail

Family Line (currently paused) by theunseenpoet

toska (n.) an immense ache for nothing and everything all at once; an anguish from the bottom of the heart. - It's one thing to be a Rider in the Riders Quadrant, but to be a young mother as well? Now that is difficult... Especially when the father of the child has no idea that he is just that: a father. - Theodosia Mairi fell in love young with Xaden Riorson and the two swore they loved each other. But after one afternoon, Xaden never visited Theodosia again, even while he was rising rank and freedom in the Riders Quadrant, and because of that, he never found out he was a father to a four-year-old boy. Then everything changed when Theodosia and her twin brother entered the Riders Quadrant for their first year, keeping Riorson's son a secret. How long would that secret last? Did Xaden still love Theodosia like he swore he did? Would anything go back to the way it was? Or did the secret sever all and any feelings between the Mairi and Riorson? - Fourth Wing -> Iron Flame OC fem x (idek at this point but i'll be sure by the fifth chapter) #1 in theodosia #1 xadenriorson #1 bodhidurran #violetsorrengail

The Riorson Legacy by acotar44

Thrust into this new world where brutality and strength reign supreme right along side the giant fire-breathing dragons, Kitt will have to navigate through Conscription Day and Threshing. Through old memories and still-healing wounds. Through new friendships and new love. All the while an evil lurks just beneath the surface, threatening to destroy everything she has come to cherish. Kitt will be faced with demons both in the flesh and within her own mind. But Kitt is a Riorson. And she will not break easily.

Inferno | Garrick Tavis by tonysnarky

BOOK TWO OF "VIPER" Everyone expected Eleanor Lennox to die at Resson. Len included. But against all odds, she survived. And now? War is coming-whispered in the halls of Basgiath, painted in blood on the battlefield, buried in the lies of the Revolution. Assassins stalk the shadows. The enemy is already at the gate. And Len has a target on her back-not just for wielding shadowfire, not just for bonding to Nox, but for refusing to die when she should have. With Garrick and Xaden on the front lines, Len is missing half her family. But she's got Bodhi at her side, a war to fight, people to kill, and secrets she cannot afford to let slip. They used to call her the Viper. But she's not just a snake with a lethal bite anymore. She's an inferno. And if leadership wants her dead? She'll burn them to the ground.

Otherworldly by eem_babe

In a world ruled by dragons and sharpened by war, Veronica Dawson was never meant to be anything more than a shadow in someone else's story. Thrown into the brutal halls of Basgiath War College, a place she's only ever read about, Veronica knows the rules: survive, stay quiet, and don't change the plot. After all, she already knows how it ends. But nothing goes as planned when she crosses paths with Xaden Riorson-lethal, unreadable, and far more dangerous than the pages ever described. His piercing gaze sees too much. And worse, he starts asking questions no one should. Surrounded by dragons, haunted by secrets that were never hers to carry, and hunted by a fate she thought she could avoid, Verena walks the knife-edge between knowledge and exposure. Because the truth is, she doesn't belong here. But the longer she stays, the harder it becomes to pull away. And if the world she's trapped in begins to unravel... It might not be because of what she knows... But because of who she's becoming. A Fourth Wing fanfic Xaden x Female OC

Sweet Serenity (Fourth Wing) (Xaden Riorson) by jessiroad

Secrets, betrayal, and forbidden desire intertwine in the world of dragon riders. Serene Panchek has lived her life in the shadows, trained to be silent and invisible, a master at hiding her secrets. But now, as a third-year in the Fourth Wing, she's drawn into the orbit of Xaden Riorson, the infamous rebel leader with secrets of his own. Their connection is electric, undeniable, and dangerous-especially as Serene discovers that the rebellion may be her only way to escape her father's iron grip. But the truth is as deadly as it is liberating, and as the lines between loyalty and love blur, Serene must decide how much she's willing to risk... and who she's willing to betray. When Violet Sorrengail arrives, bringing both chaos and possibility, Serene and Xaden's forbidden connection is tested, revealing a path that could either doom them... or ignite a revolution.
