《龍騎士法典》第一條第一節：
　　龍無騎士，是為悲劇；
　　騎士無龍，必死無疑。

◎非生即死的學院競爭
　　身為軍人世家的異類，薇奧蕾不但沒有兄姊的戰鬥天賦，還體弱多病。她從小就嚮往和父親一樣進入抄寫士學院，然而她身為將軍的母親，卻命令她參加龍騎士的徵選。
　　龍騎士是納瓦爾王國裡大家最渴望成為的菁英，人與龍一旦締約後即獲得獨一無二的印記能力。但是，龍不會跟「脆弱」的人締約。她不僅要靠聰明才智在甄選考驗和同儕競爭中活下來，還得應付和她家有血海深仇的叛將之子薩登。

◎有如莎士比亞筆下「惡星情人」的禁忌愛情
　　這個性感得要命的男人是第四翼隊的翼隊長，他父親所領導的叛變戰爭導致薇奧蕾的哥哥布瑞南死亡；而薇奧蕾的母親則親自抓到薩登的父親。他們雖然背負著家族的血債，卻阻止不了兩人之間致命的吸引，由於與他們締約的龍正好是伴侶，他們不只和自己的龍生死與共，命運也緊緊相繫。

◎攸關王國生死存亡的戰鬥
　　與此同時，王國的魔法結界逐漸失效，鄰國的獅鷲騎士不斷來犯、洗劫山區的村莊，越來越多的騎士陣亡。這一切似乎都跟父親說過的黑暗神話有關，更糟的是，薇奧蕾發現國家領導階層對他們隱瞞了可怕的祕密…

A fantasy like you’ve never read before.＂―#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. ArmentroutEnter the brutal and elite world of a war college for dragon riders from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rebecca YarrosTwenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general--also known as her tough-as-talons mother--has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to ＂fragile＂ humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success. The rest would kill her just for being her mother’s daughter--like Xaden Riorson, the most powerful and ruthless wingleader in the Riders Quadrant. She’ll need every edge her wits can give her just to see the next sunrise. Yet, with every day that passes, the war outside grows more deadly, the kingdom’s protective wards are failing, and the death toll continues to rise. Even worse, Violet begins to suspect leadership is hiding a terrible secret. Friends, enemies, lovers. Everyone at Basgiath War College has an agenda--because once you enter, there are only two ways out: graduate or die. The Empyrean series is best enjoyed in order.Reading Order: Book #1 Fourth WingBook #2 Iron FlameBook #3 Onyx Storm

What’s the harm in a pseudonym? New York Times bestselling sensation Juniper Song is not who she says she is, she didn’t write the book she claims she wrote, and she is most certainly not Asian American—in this chilling and hilariously cutting novel from R. F. Kuang in the vein of White Ivy and The Other Black Girl.
Authors June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars: same year at Yale, same debut year in publishing. But Athena’s a cross-genre literary darling, and June didn’t even get a paperback release. Nobody wants stories about basic white girls, June thinks.
So when June witnesses Athena’s death in a freak accident, she acts on impulse: she steals Athena’s just-finished masterpiece, an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers to the British and French war efforts during World War I.
So what if June edits Athena’s novel and sends it to her agent as her own work? So what if she lets her new publisher rebrand her as Juniper Song—complete with an ambiguously ethnic author photo? Doesn’t this piece of history deserve to be told, whoever the teller? That’s what June claims, and the New York Times bestseller list seems to agree.
But June can’t get away from Athena’s shadow, and emerging evidence threatens to bring June’s (stolen) success down around her. As June races to protect her secret, she discovers exactly how far she will go to keep what she thinks she deserves.
With its totally immersive first-person voice, Yellowface takes on questions of diversity, racism, and cultural appropriation not only in the publishing industry but the persistent erasure of Asian-American voices and history by Western white society. R. F. Kuang’s novel is timely, razor-sharp, and eminently readable.
