Fourth Wing. Czwarte Skrzydło

A dragon suffers without its rider. A rider dies without their dragon. (Article One, Section One, Dragon Riders Code) Welcome to the brutal, elite world of a military academy for dragon riders by bestselling author Rebecca Yarros! Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to end up in the Scribers'' Quadrant and lead a quiet life among books and history. But now the Commander-in-Chief, also known as her uncompromising mother, has ordered Violet to join hundreds of candidates eager to become the elite of Navarre – dragon riders. However, when you’re not blessed with height and your body is fragile, death lurks just around the corner… because dragons do not bond with “fragile” people. They eliminate them. There are fewer dragons willing to form bonds than cadets, so most want to kill Violet to increase their chances. The rest wish her dead because of who her mother is – for example Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wing commander in the Dragon Riders Quadrant. Violet will have to rely on her wits and intelligence to survive. Yet with each passing day, the war raging at the borders intensifies and takes an increasing toll as the barriers protecting the kingdom weaken. Worse yet, Violet begins to suspect that commanders are hiding a terrible secret from everyone. Friends, enemies, lovers… everyone attending Military Academy in Basgiat has their purpose because once you find yourself there, you can leave it in two ways… either you graduate or you die. Fourth Wing will make your heart race from start to finish. You’ve never read fantasy like this before! – Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author
