The Empyrean series has taken the literary world by storm with the release of "Onyx Storm" earlier this year. Now, all three books in the series are dominating Amazon's Kindle best sellers list for 2025. The series' meteoric rise began with the publication of "Fourth Wing" in 2023, which gained immense popularity thanks to the viral influence of Booktok. Since then, this romantasy series has grown to dominate not only Amazon's charts but also most best seller lists across the globe.
The release of "Onyx Storm" has attracted a surge of new readers, showcasing the captivating power of Rebecca Yarros' storytelling. The blend of fantasy and romance in her writing appeals to a wide audience, enchanting readers across different genres. With a "Fourth Wing" TV series now in development at Amazon, the Empyrean series is poised to eclipse even the Harry Potter franchise in popularity, provided it capitalizes on this momentum.
While the Empyrean series continues to dominate the Kindle charts, it also holds a strong presence in Amazon's top-selling physical books list for 2025. Both the deluxe limited edition and the standard edition of "Onyx Storm" rank in the top 10, while "Fourth Wing" remains firmly in the top 25. The recent release of Suzanne Collins' new Hunger Games book has pushed "Onyx Storm" to the second spot on the fiction list, but with more readers discovering the series through "Fourth Wing," we might see a shift back before the year ends.
