What is Iron Flame about?
The official synopsis opens after Violet survives her first year at Basgiath War College. In her second year, training remains dangerous and the stakes become more politically fraught. A new vice commandant pressures Violet to betray the man she loves, while a long-hidden secret threatens the characters. That is the spoiler-light premise; this guide does not go beyond the author’s synopsis.

What format and ISBN should I look for?
Format and ISBN depend on the edition and market. The author’s page lists ISBN 9781649374172 and ASIN B0C4JMJBNX; Hachette UK’s paperback listing gives ISBN 9780349437057 and an on-sale date of 19 November 2024. These identifiers refer to distinct listings, so match the ISBN to the exact edition you intend to buy rather than treating one as universal.
| Listing | Format and market detail | Identifier |
|---|---|---|
| Rebecca Yarros official book page | Edition format not specified in the cited listing details | ISBN 9781649374172; ASIN B0C4JMJBNX |

Hachette UK’s page also lists paperback, ebook, and hardcover options and links to UK retailers. Availability and identifiers can differ by edition, so use the format and ISBN shown on the specific retailer listing. The page states that Hachette UK may earn commissions from purchases through its retailer buttons; that disclosure applies to its page, not automatically to other publishers or sites.
