Officially, the Empyrean series (that’s the fancy name for the whole saga) has three published books. That’s Fourth Wing, Iron Flame, and the brand-new Onyx Storm.
Yes, you heard that right—we just got a shiny new installment to obsess over. Three books are sitting on shelves, waiting for you to dog-ear their pages and question your life choices.
Rebecca Yarros, the author, has a master plan. She has confirmed that the series will be a total of five books. So we’re just over halfway there, my friend.
But Wait, What About the Extras?
Here’s where it gets fun—and slightly infuriating. There are also novellas and bonus chapters floating around like lost signets.
The most famous is The Empyrean: A Special Edition, which includes extra scenes from Xaden’s point of view. It’s not a full book, but it’s essential reading for anyone who needs more brooding tension.
Yarros has also hinted at short stories and companion pieces. So while the main series is five books, the total “Fourth Wing universe” content is already expanding fast. Keep your eyes peeled, because collectors are already hoarding these like candy.
