Reaching the crowd of graduates and their guests, Libby paused to conjure something terrible; a final, devastating parting malediction. Something to say that would haunt Nico as she walked away, out of his life forever. Libby, who’d blissfully forgotten for a second that Nico was even there, bristled at the mention of Ezra. “Why wouldn’t he be here?”Swimmingly,” said Nico, flashing her one of his charming smiles. It was the worst thing about him, really, that he could be such a non-headache with everyone who wasn’t Libby. Nico de Varona was every teacher’s favorite; when it came to their peers, everyone wanted to be him or date him, or at the very least befriend him. The story centers on the mysterious Alexandrian Society, a secretive body that serves as caretakers of lost knowledge from the greatest civilizations of antiquity (such as the library that gives the group its name). Every 10 years, the group recruits six of the most powerful young magic users (known in this world as medeians, not to be confused with simple witches!) to join their ranks, but only after an initiation period that requires them to live, study, and learn to survive together. A revised and edited edition of The Atlas Six with brand new illustrations hit shelves this week ahead of the release of the sequel The Atlas Paradox this Fall and let’s put it this way: The time to get on this fantasy hype train is right now. The old ache of Katherine’s absence smoothed over into relief. She’d have hated this, and Libby’s dress, and probably Libby’s haircut, too.

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.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 There wasn’t a lot of natural life […] but what did exist – the decorative plants sitting idly in the corners, handfuls of cut flowers in vases meant for sympathy – had crept towards her infant form like nervous children, anxious and yearning and fearful of death” No trouble at all,” Libby assured the dean, knowing that even Nico would not be so idiotic as to disagree. “Everything’s fine.”

As time passes for the characters, they are given instructions and dangerous quests that test their ability to problem solve and use their unique skills. The reader, knowing that only five of them will survive, is kept alert trying to work out which one could be eliminated and how this would be done. Each chapter is told in the voice of one of the characters, giving the reader one perspective on what is happening and insights into the feelings and beliefs of that person. Like Gallant by V.E. Schwab, the book is interspersed with illustrations, this time of each of the main protagonists. They are not labelled, and it is fun to try and work out who is portrayed. He gave her a bored glance. “It’s not always me, Rhodes. I don’t go around blaming you for forest fires.” Was nothing. Libby registered it, the empty seat, just as a teenage girl in high-top sneakers snaked through the row, dodging someone’s cane-assisted grandmother and giving the whole group an antiestablishment grimace. It was such an uncanny juxtaposition, so acutely timed: the familiar sliver of youthful ennui (ambivalence in a strapless dress) and the empty chair next to her parents. Libby’s vision swam with something she worried for a second might be sudden-onset blindness, or tears. When the candidates are recruited by the mysterious Atlas Blakely, they are told they must spend one year together to qualify for initiation. During this time, they will be permitted access to the Society’s archives and judged on their contributions to arcane areas of knowledge. Five, they are told, will be initiated. One will be eliminated. If they can prove themselves to be the best, they will survive. Most of them. I do not get—” Another breath. Two breaths, for good measure. “I do not get stage fright,” she managed, more evenly this time, “and even if I did, what exactly would you do to help me?”

He also had a monstrous capacity to fool people into thinking he knew what he was talking about, which he resolutely did not. Sometimes, maybe. But certainly not always. The Alexandrian Society, caretakers of lost knowledge from the greatest civilizations of antiquity, are the foremost secret society of magical academicians in the world. Those who earn a place among the Alexandrians will secure a life of wealth, power, and prestige beyond their wildest dreams, and each decade, only the six most uniquely talented magicians are selected to be considered for initiation. As a writer, Blake is wonderfully stingy with her exposition, allowing us to get to know both the personalities and the histories of these characters through their actions in each individual POV chapter. Her characterizations are rich and thorough—none of the six are especially good people or even likable most of the time. (In fact, several of them are kind of huge jerks!) They all make selfish choices and often downright dumb decisions. But, the emotional underpinnings of their various behaviors have been so carefully laid out throughout the story that it makes their mistakes, if not wise, at least understandable. The characters themselves are incredibly morally-grey, which I really enjoyed. Usually, unlikeable characters put me off a story, but the concept was so interesting that I wanted to learn more, and as I did so the characters became more and more complex — and more difficult to label in terms of “good” or “bad”. Much like real life. In many ways Blake’s novel is a fantastic study of the human mind.

The Atlas Series by Olivie Blake - Goodreads

The Atlas Six is available now; sequel The Atlas Paradox is slated to hit bookstore shelves in October. Chloe Gong, New York Times bestselling author of These Violent Delights The Atlas Six introduces six of the most devious, talented, and flawed characters to ever find themselves in a magical library, and then sets them against one another in a series of stunning betrayals and reversals. 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 He did, but—” Nico broke off, catching himself, while Libby silently congratulated her success. “Very funny, Rhodes.” It was the last day Libby Rhodes would ever set eyes on Nico de Varona, and she couldn’t have been more exuberant about the dawn of a simpler, superior, less Nico-infested life. Apr 21 2022 The Atlas six by Olivie Blake Pan Macmillan, 2022. ISBN: 9781529095241. (Age: Adult) Recommended for adults.The Atlas Six follows 6 talented medians with unique abilities who are given the chance to compete for 5 spots in this secret society, where they can access power and knowledge behind their imagination. But when the society isn’t what they thought it would be, and the ‘elimination’ isn’t as civil as first predicted, things take a more sinister turn. The Atlas Six Age Rating and Parents Guide Please,” Nico scoffed under his breath, “you and I both know that nobody wasted any time voting on something as idiotic as who should give the commencement speech. Half the people here are already drunk,” he pointed out, and while Libby knew he was more right than she’d ever admit to him being, she also knew it was a sore subject. He could pretend at nonchalance as much as he liked, but she knew he never enjoyed losing to her, whether he considered it a subject of importance or not. Compelling, entertaining, and addictive. The Atlas Six is academic Darwinism: survival of the smartest with a healthy dose of magic." — T.L. Huchu, author of The Library of The Dead
