The Fourth Wing Books are Dominating Amazon's Kindle Best Sellers List in 2025 So Far

Rebecca Yarros's Empyrean series, boosted by the viral success of Fourth Wing on BookTok in 2023, continues its phenomenal rise. With the recent release of Onyx Storm, all three books now dominate Amazon's 2025 Kindle best-seller list, a testament to the series' broad appeal. This captivating blend of fantasy and romance has captured a massive readership, propelling it to the top of numerous bestseller charts. The upcoming Amazon TV adaptation of Fourth Wing further promises to elevate the series' popularity, potentially rivaling even the Harry Potter franchise.

The Empyrean series isn't just conquering the digital realm. Its physical editions are also hugely popular, with both the deluxe and standard editions of Onyx Storm ranking among Amazon's top 10 best-selling physical books of 2025. Fourth Wing remains firmly within the top 25. Only the recent release of Suzanne Collins' new Hunger Games novel has momentarily relegated Onyx Storm to the number two spot in the fiction category. However, given the continued influx of new readers discovering the series through Fourth Wing, this ranking could easily shift again before the year's end.
