The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake is the runaway TikTok must-listen fantasy novel of the year, read by a full cast of narrators. 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.
The story continues in The Atlas Paradox, the heart-stopping sequel.

This is a pile of pretentious, vapid nonsense. All the characters are assholes, width the depth of water puddles, and no character development. The world building is non-existent, as is basically “add magic to everything, changing nothing”

Prætentiøs…. Alt for stort slået op… det er umuligt at finde rundt i (begynde at kunne lide) ALLE hovedpersonerne…. Det reder det en lillebitte smule at de har forskellige oplæsere… De er lige ulidelige og historien er en lang håbløs historie dybet i depression, paranoia og teenangst …

3.5⭐Booktok havde noget hypet den lige lovligt for meget op for mig. Men den er nu meget god, der er nogle vilde plottwists! Skal bestemt høre den næste.

Man kan mærke, at forfatteren selv synes hendes karakterer er sejere end de er
