variety.com:

Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer SPOILER ALERT: This article contains major spoilers from Rebecca Yarros‘ “Onyx Storm,” the third book in her “The Empyrean” book series.

Rebecca Yarros published No. 3 out of the five books she has planned in her “The Empyrean” series last week and has already broken the record for fastest-selling novel targeted at adults in 20 years with the romantasy title, “Onyx Storm.” “It’s wild.

I’m absolutely humbled by it. It’s insane. I don’t think it’s registered,” Yarros told Variety in the middle of her whirlwind tour of sold-out Q&As and morning-show appearances to promote the book, which sold more than 2.7 million copies in its first week following Jan.

21 release. “I’ll probably burst into tears at home when I’m actually in my real life with my children and my husband. But right now, it’s like two different segments of my life.” From Entangled Publishing’s Red Tower imprint, “Onyx Storm” (and its “The Empyrean” series predecessors, “Fourth Wing” and its sequel “Iron Flame”) tells the continued story of Violet Sorrengail, a dragon-riding cadet at a military college who is uncovering the long-held magical secrets of her country.
