This advertisement is for The Atlas Complex—the heart-shattering finale to the dark academia series that began with Olivie Blake’s NYT bestselling The Atlas Six.
WHAT’S IT ABOUT
An explosive return to the library leaves the six Alexandrians vulnerable to the lethal terms of their recruitment.
Knowledge Is Carnage
Old alliances fracture as those who remain within the archives wrestle with the ethics of their astronomical abilities. Elsewhere, an unlikely pair from the Society partner up to influence politics on a global stage while the outside world mobilizes to destroy them all. And as for the Society’s Caretaker, Atlas Blakely… He may yet succeed in his world-breaking plan.
Destiny Is a Choice
It all comes down to this: The Society recruits must decide what and who they're willing to betray and destroy for limitless power.
Power Is Taken
