About this listen

What do you get if you mix Harry Potter with Fourth Wing, Zodiac Academy, a dash of Arthurian legend, and lots and lots of vampires? Bloodwing Academy.

I didn't sign up for this.

A half-fae in a school of highblood vampires? That's a recipe for torment.

I'm Medra Pendragon—last of the dragon riders, or so they tell me. Funny thing is, there are no dragons left. Not a single one. But somehow, that hasn't stopped the vampires from deciding I'm worth capturing. Now, I'm stuck at Bloodwing Academy, where the highbloods run everything, and blightborn like me? We're just blood in their veins, pawns in their games.

But that's not even the worst part. Enter Blake Drakharrow. Cold, arrogant, and way too gorgeous for his own good. He's been tormenting me since the moment we met, and now, thanks to some ancient ritual, we're betrothed. He acts like he owns me, but I'm not going down without a fight.

Bloodwing isn't just a school—it's a battlefield. Highbloods fight for power, and if you're weak? You're dead.

Between deadly competitions, lies that could get me executed, and a dragon-shaped secret looming over my head, all I have to do is survive. Easy, right? Except I'm starting to think the real danger isn't the academy—it's what I'm becoming in this twisted game of power.

And Blake? He might just be the one who pushes me over the edge.

They think they can control me. They think they can use me.

But they have no idea what they've awakened.

Bestselling epic fantasy author Briar Boleyn returns with a new series perfect for fans of hate-to-love romance, heart-pounding action, and dark magic.

On Wings of Blood is a dark academia fantasy romance featuring a bully villain with Draco Malfoy energy who (eventually) gets the girl, all the tension and banter, and a tantalizingly dangerous blend of court and school intrigue all set in an intricately crafted world with unique vampire and dragon lore. Bloodwing Academy may have crossover characters from the world of Blood of a Fae but can be enjoyed completely independently. If you're a fan of original mythology, unique world-building, and character-driven romantasy series such as Crowns of Nyaxia, Blood and Ash, and A Court of Thorns and Roses, you won't want to miss out on this riveting new saga.

Currently still listening but it's hard work. Female is trying to do a "posh" english accent saying yar instead of year but then drops command with a short a sound its very off putting. Story is the only thing keeping me going. Im on chapter 11 and fighting my will to finish it 🫩

Female narrator's awful voice and pronunciation

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Even tried speeding it up but she is terrible. She is too shouty. Short sharp phrasing and every one lands on the down tone.

Story is good though.
Ok. I give up. There is no intonation. Mispronunciation and the jerky stilted way she is reading. ….
And the guys voice is too old for the younger characters.

Shame it is a good story. Well. Apart from the ridiculous reasoning Medra has. Spoils the story for me.
And I have just seen the same two narrators read the second book. So I won’t be able to go on with the series anyway.

Awful narrator

Definitely entertaining, but also a bit predictable. Missing the real character growth but the betrayals make it interesting. A fun read!

Entertaining
