Power, secrets, and shifting loyalties

The second volume in Olivie Blake’s Atlas series returns to the Society of Alexandrians, where access to world-changing power brings competing plans and divided loyalties into sharper focus. The setup centers on a fractured group: six magicians received an invitation, but only five are now Society members, and the description frames their next choices as a struggle over which side to take. Secret-society politics, magic, and personal alliances sit together at the heart of the conflict, with the Society’s leader pursuing plans to alter life as it is known. The book continues the series’ exploration of ambition and betrayal within a magical institution.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers continuing the Atlas series after The Atlas Six.
  • Readers interested in contemporary fantasy involving magicians and secret societies.
  • Readers who enjoy stories centered on power, alliances, and betrayal.

Book overview

The Atlas Paradox is the long-awaited sequel to Olivie Blake's New York Times bestselling dark academic sensation The Atlas Six--guaranteed to have even more yearning, backstabbing, betrayal, and chaos.

Six magicians were presented with the opportunity of a lifetime.

Five are now members of the Society.

Two paths lay before them.

All must pick a side.

Alliances will be tested, hearts will be broken, and The Society of Alexandrians will be revealed for what it is: a secret society with raw, world-changing power, headed by a man whose plans to change life as we know it are already under way.

"The Atlas Six introduced 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...half mystery, half puzzle, and wholly a delight."--Holly Black, New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Night
