Why Read This?

Synopsis

Who is Vivien Featherswallow? Is she The Swallow, the most wanted rebel in all of Britannia? Is she a Brasstongue on the cusp of translating a new language? Or is she just Viv, the girl who lost the love of her life after playing spy? Though this war might have begun with bombs and teeth, it will be fought with tongues. And Viv will soon learn that everything she thought she knew—even about herself—might be a lie. The explosive sequel to the New York Times bestseller A Language of Dragons.

At a Glance

A War of Wyverns cranks up the stakes from its predecessor with full-scale war between humans and dragons in an alternate 1920s London. Vivien Featherswallow is now the symbol of the resistance—codebreaker turned rebel spy—armed with a machine that lets her hear dragon thoughts. The romance takes a backseat to the espionage and linguistics, and fair warning: the battle scenes are genuinely brutal. Perfect for readers who loved Babel by R.F. Kuang and want their dragon fantasy steeped in language, class warfare, and moral ambiguity.
