Atlas Six (Atlas Series, 1)

An Instant New York Times Bestseller
A Vulture Best Fantasy Novel of 2022
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.

Great concept. Amazing vibe. I feel like maybe I should have studied physics at some point but now it’s too late. Unfortunately I ended up not vibing with any of the characters, OOPS. They all kinda made me mad in some way, idk why (I’m gonna blame Callum and Parisa for reasonssss) But the magic really interesting and the science is rad (if I was more of a STEM person I bet I’d be geeking out). Twist at the end was cool, shhhhh. I won’t say anything hehehe. I’ll see if I read the next one, I’ll have to muster up enough courage to dive back into this ensemble.

So so good-:) Give me more!
Love all the characters and their different nuances. Even the ones I did not like, I loved.
The 6 start out as individuals, but soon become a family group and though they may not all get along, they all need each other.
The plot has some great unexpected twists - some a bit kinkier than others. The descriptions draw you into the scene as if you are sitting there or fighting alongside the characters.
If you enjoy fantasy, magic, love triangles, and competition between characters, you will enjoy this book.
