Discover The Atlas Six, Olivie Blake's whip-smart dark academia sensation. Six young magicians are chosen for greatness. But as they study to become the best among rivals, the stakes are higher than they know.
The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake is the runaway TikTok sensation ? a must-read fantasy novel with gorgeous illustrations. If you loved Ninth House and A Deadly Education, you?ll love this.
Secrets. Betrayal. Seduction.
Welcome to the Alexandrian Society.
When the world?s best magicians are offered an extraordinary opportunity, saying yes is easy. Each could join the secretive Alexandrian Society, whose custodians guard lost knowledge from ancient civilizations. Their members enjoy a lifetime of power and prestige. Yet each decade, only six practitioners are invited ? to fill five places.
Contenders Libby Rhodes and Nico de Varona are inseparable enemies, cosmologists who can control matter with their minds. Parisa Kamali is a telepath, who sees the mind?s deepest secrets. Reina Mori is a naturalist who can perceive and understand the flow of life itself. And Callum Nova is an empath, who can manipulate the desires of others. Finally there?s Tristan Caine, whose powers mystify even himself.
Following recruitment by the mysterious Atlas Blakely, they travel to the Society?s London headquarters. Here, each must study and innovate within esoteric subject areas. And if they can prove themselves, over the course of a year, they?ll survive. Most of them.
'As much a delicious contest of wit, will, and passion as it is of magic, this book is half mystery, half puzzle, and wholly a delight' ? Holly Black, author of The Cruel Prince
The story continues in The Atlas Paradox, the heart-stopping sequel.
Reader reviews:
?I don?t think anything will ever compare with this?
?To say I can't wait for the sequel is an understatement. Do yourself a favour and buy this immediately!?
?I had to convince myself magic isn?t real?
Originally a self-published sensation, this edition has been fully edited and revised.
Lethally smart. Filled with a cast of brilliantly realized characters, each entangled with one another in torturously delicious ways, The Atlas Six will grip you by the throat and refuse to let go. Olivie Blake is a mind-blowing talent
