I loved Onyx Storm, and I can't wait for the next book! Yarrow's writing continues to be a highlight – she has this amazing knack for balancing humor and really touching moments. In fact, I even teared up a few times – the emotional punches really landed! I especially loved learning more about the dragons and their ideology, and seeing Violet and Xaden's love story continue to develop. The book also does a great job depicting the corrupting influence of power. And, of course, I have to mention Broccoli – you'll know what I mean when you read it!
Now, while I thoroughly enjoyed Onyx Storm, there were a couple of things I noticed. I did find myself wishing there was more representation of Violet's chronic illness. As a hypermobility girlie myself, I so feel for her, and I think that aspect of her experience could have been explored further for the future. Also, I noticed that some pivotal moments and plans happen behind the scenes, so I wasn't always clued in on Violet's motivations or actions. It made certain parts a little tricky to follow initially, but I suspect it will all make perfect sense on a second read. Onyx Storm definitely felt like a bridge book, laying a lot of groundwork for the future. I spent the first chunk of the book getting my bearings with new characters and locations, and exploring more of the world's history. Honestly, it took me a little while to really get into it, and the initial setup was a tad confusing. But once I found my footing? Things started to click, and the story really took off. The rest of the book was captivating.
But honestly, those small things didn't detract from my overall enjoyment. This book definitely expands the lore and plot in exciting ways, and I can't wait to see what happens next!

关于作者
A story of twists, turns, and devastations.
Contains Spoilers!!I started out reading this book with high expectations, mainly because of how long the wait was to finally get it. In her epigraph quote, Mrs. Yarros set a great tone for the book, and it was something that resonated with me personally.“To the ones who don’t run with the popular crowd, the ones who get caught reading undertheir desks, the ones who feel like they never get invited, included, or represented. Get your leathers. We have dragons to ride.” (Yarros, 2025, epigraph).That quote hit home for me, and I had to honestly put the book down for a few minutes and just let that feeling sink in. Growing up I was bullied a lot because I was different or defective. You see, I had cancer that caused me to lose my right eye, the treatment resulted in me being immunosuppressant, causing me to be sick a lot. I spent a lot of time by myself and dove into books as my source of companionship, which is why this quote touched me so much. I love when authors start out with an epigraph, especially if it feels like it is talking to me!Now, on to the story, where Mrs. Yarros dives right in setting the tone for the book, the struggle to save Xaden. Mrs. Yarros also gives a glimpse into why the book is called Onyx Storm, by saying that the mental connection between Xaden and Violet is there but resembles a thick wall of “...chilled onyx” (Yarros, 2025, Prologue). Also, I love that Xaden and Violet still revolve around the theme of rebellion throughout this book, first with the ban of their relationship and ending with their surprise marriage! Additionally, even though they are separated for a lot of this book, the romance and spice level is something that I enjoyed but does also leave me wishing for more.We finally find out what Violet’s second Signet is from Andarna. She is a “...dream-walker” (Yarros, 2025, Chapter Fifty). However, this revolution isn’t explored much before Andarna separates from Violet for her kind, which leaves Violet with one dragon instead of two. It is later revealed that even without Andarna, Violet still contains the power of dream-walking, which means she technically still has two Signet powers. Also, something that got me, when Andarna comes back to Violet at the end of the book, does that mean she is forming a new connection? If so, could this new connection result in a new Signet power, possibly one that will help save Xaden? Will Violet be the first rider to have three Signet powers?Overall, I equally loved and hated this book, I would rate the book a 4.5 out of 5. It provided almost as many answers as it created new questions. It provided some plot twists that were unexpected but also had a lot of predictable elements, for example, how the dragons rejected Andarna. But overall, I am happy with how the story is turning out. I believe that if Mrs. Yarros would have let Violet save Xaden before he turned full Venin would have not been true to the story as a whole. I think figuring out how to cure, or at least restore what they have lost, to full Venin is the end game for this series. Finally, I am left with the wonder if Violet will now be referred to as a Duchess and what will her last name look like!
