Beyond Fourth Wing: Unveiling the Latest Releases from Red Tower Books

Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros

Of course, one of the most anticipated fantasy romance releases is Iron Flame. This is the sequel to the massively popular Fourth Wing.

This book is already causing some controversy, though. Instead of stenciled edges, it has sprayed black ones. While some are a little annoyed by this, it is because stenciled edges would push the release date back.

Iron Flame will be hitting shelves on November 7, 2023. Yes, in the same year as the first book.
