Ten years ago, the kingdom of Jasad burned. Its magic was outlawed. Its royal family murdered. At least, that’s what Sylvia wants people to believe. The Heir of Jasad escaped the massacre, and she intends to stay hidden, especially from the armies of Nizahl that continue to hunt her people. But a moment of anger changes everything. When Arin, the Nizahl Heir, tracks a group of Jasadi rebels to her village, Sylvia accidentally reveals her magic—and captures his attention. Now Sylvia’s forced to make a deal with her greatest enemy: Help him hunt the rebels in exchange for her life.

Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilya—the exceptional, the empowered, the Elites. The powers these Elites have possessed for decades were graciously gifted to them by the Plague, though not all were fortunate enough to both survive the sickness and reap the reward. Those born Ordinary are just that—ordinary. And when the king decreed that all Ordinaries be banished to preserve his Elite society, lacking an ability suddenly became a crime—making Paedyn Gray a felon by fate and a thief by necessity.

The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

Publisher's summary
"One of fantasy’s best series."—Booklist, starred review
Game of Thrones meets Fourth Wing in a debut young adult fantasy that's full of rivalry, romance . . . and dragons.
Annie and Lee were just children when a brutal revolution changed their world, giving everyone—even the lowborn—a chance to test into the governing class of dragonriders.
Now they are both rising stars in the new regime, despite backgrounds that couldn't be more different. Annie's lowborn family was executed by dragonfire, while Lee's aristocratic family was murdered by revolutionaries. Growing up in the same orphanage forged their friendship, and seven years of training have made them rivals for the top position in the dragonriding fleet.
But everything changes when survivors from the old regime surface, bent on reclaiming the city.
With war on the horizon and his relationship with Annie changing fast, Lee must choose to kill the only family he has left or to betray everything he's come to believe in. And Annie must decide whether to protect the boy she loves . . . or step up to be the champion her city needs.
From debut author Rosaria Munda comes a gripping adventure that calls into question which matters most: the family you were born into, or the one you've chosen.

Her logical, lawyer instincts told her it couldn't all be real, but she could hardly deny what she'd seen...and touched.

Look up what Dystopian means
I have some mixed feelings. I usually like books that are an escape from life. They're usually a little more light hearted. This book is pretty heavy/political and the characters are put though some pretty rough stuff without many great outlooks on life. Me being unaware, it was a hard listen on my long road trip. They live in between a rock and a hard place the entire book. It's also a very slow build up. However, the writer is showing you the characters strengths, weaknesses, and who they are, which I really liked. You get a really good feel for the main characters and their rational. I feel like there might be something missing, but I can't for the life of me put my finger in it. Honestly, it might be some sort of happiness or contentment at all for the characters. For now, I think I'll choose something more uplifting, but I could see myself comming back to this when I want a more serious read. I know it's fantasy, but it's a more heartbreaking realistic version of fantasy, if that makes sense? The narration is decent!

Fantastic book
Fireborne was fantastic! The clever writing and story telling giving hints of a world that is not was it appears to be. The readers are great and normally I don’t like books with multiple readers. Looking forward to the next to.

Great book! Ready for more!
While it felt slow going at first, it really picked up over halfway through and I had finally fallen in love with the characters and was invested in the storyline. Ready for book 2!

Beautiful written
I loved this book. The characters are well developed and nuanced. The writing beautiful, and the story intriguing, suspenseful, and unpredictable.
I originally thought it was a fantasy book but I think it falls into the dystopian category. Although labeled as young adult, it is a sophisticated read- much of the plot coming from Plato’s Republic. I’m an old adult and found it to be an extremely satisfying read. Narration was good, and it can easily be listened to at 1.25. The narrator for Lee started out slow, but he ended up being quite good.

Was so excited as I saw many compared this to 4th Wing…
Let’s just say it is not even close. I found this book to be slow and boring. Nothing like 4th Wing except young people in school and dragons.. perhaps the next book will help me understand why many compare to the Empyrean series.

Excellent World, Characters, Pacing, and Politics!
Firstly, this isn't Fourth Wing. Fourth Wing is for readers who don't engage with media beyond the words in front of their noses.
This story has a soul, it has thought, and care, and research, and questions to dissect. Besides a few minor issues with the military structure and schizo-tech, the world makes sense. The characters care about their place in their society, rich relationships are formed between multiple people, and a compelling tale and stirring questions unfold at a good pace.

Loved it all
I found these books after reading the Fourth Wing/ Iron Flame books. Wasn’t expecting to like them as much as those, but I fell in love. Didn’t want the series to end. Also, it’s normally taken me awhile to get into the voices for the other audiobooks I’ve listened to, but I immediately enjoyed Lee & Annie’s voice actors. I could listen to “Annie’s” voice all day. Highly recommend this whole series. I got lost in this world and it’ll be hard to find another one I love as much as this.

A fun read with dragons!
This one was gooood! I loved the dragons, the class system / politics, and the dynamic relationships between the characters. This is probably the first book I have read where there were truly two full POVs and neither were more important than the other to the storyline - was an adjustment for me, but I was pleasantly surprised! This one is definitely fantasy with a romantic subplot. Overall, a fun read that will leave you interested for more.
For my audiobook friends: each POV has a different narrator, both were very good but was a little lost on occasion when voicing some of the other characters

Left me Excited for More!
This was such a great read! I had heard many good things about the book series but I was a little reluctant to start it, just because I hadn't really heard much about what it was about, just that it was good.
I'd say this was a YA book, because of the age of the characters, but the themes it explored were quite mature. This book is about the rise up of a lower class regime over a cruel ruling class regime and how some of the citizens are adjusting to the new paradigm shift...all on a dragon's back. ;)
It's a fun adventure filled with great characters. There are some tropes that some might find annoying but I think they are done well here. There's a wee bit of miscommunication trope, but not in that annoying way where the characters just seem not to talk to each other because the writer isn't ready for them too. There's a little bit of a love triangle thing going on here but not in the very obvious, upsetting way where the author is setting up one pairing over the other and it's totally obvious what choice the characters should be making. It's very subtle because the romance aspect is not the main focus at all. Overall, I really enjoyed it.
Edit: I have recently reread the book after about a year in preparation for reading the next two. I was surprised to find that I hadn't noticed a few flaws the first time around, but they were glaring this time. Firstly, the author does a lot of telling rather than showing. There is very little to no dialogue between the characters in places. There are a lot of places where the characters say: So I told him about this... instead of inserting dialogue between the characters. This made everyone feel very removed from each other. Secondly, the drama intended for certain scenes would have been appropriately heightened if the characters would have spoken to each other, so not only did they seem distant but it felt like some opportunities for the reader to feel the drama of a scene was removed. It was much harder to get into the book this time and much harder to remember why I liked it so much before. But this story is far more plot-driven than character-driven, which is not normally my style. It was still an interesting world and plot, but I wish the characters were more active and spoke more.
