What's the Empyrean Series About?
Initially described as "Harry Potter with dragons," the series, while starting with that element, evolves into a more Twilight-esque magical fantasy romance with explicit content.
The narrative follows Violet Sorrengail, a seemingly delicate young woman compelled by her powerful mother to attend a perilous dragon rider academy. Violet's journey involves overcoming personal weaknesses, navigating complex relationships with her mother, a former friend, and a seemingly antagonistic boy, all while uncovering a larger conspiracy surrounding dragons and her world, amidst a passionate romance.
