A Goodreads Best Fantasy Choice Award Nominee
The much-acclaimed viral sensation from Olivie Blake, The Atlas Six--now newly revised and edited with additional content--is the first in an explosive dark academia fantasy trilogy that reads like The Secret History meets The Umbrella Academy
Each decade, only the six most uniquely talented magicians are selected to earn a place in the Alexandrian Society, the foremost secret society in the world. The chosen will secure a life of power and prestige beyond their wildest dreams.
But at what cost?
Each of the six newest recruits has their reasons for accepting the Society's elusive invitation. Even if it means growing closer than they could have imagined to their most dangerous enemies-- or risking unforgivable betrayal from their most trusted allies-- they will fight tooth and nail for the right to join the ranks of the Alexandrians.
Even if it means they won't all survive the year.

this was almost a DNF for me, but I slogged through. I bought it after I finished reading a different series by Naomi Novik, which I just loved and was reluctant to leave that world. This book was recommended for lovers of that genre.This book never really sparked for me. I got to know the characters but never really cared about them. I found the description of philosophy/ideas heavy handed. There were a few surprises, but I didn't really care. I did finish it, but I won't read book two. I don't like to talk down books, because someone has spent a lot of love and time on them, so I will say, that it didn't work for me, and leave it at that.
Nonexistent plot and unlikable characters all over. I struggled to finish it and won’t be reading the second one.
This was so interesting. A little pretentious at times, but I loved the character dynamics! I’m always down for magic and academia
It's like Harry Potter but for adults. Love it!!!
great book, good magic action and fantasy concepts mixed into real world.
