The Atlas Paradox

“Please tell me there's another book coming in this series because I NEED MORE! I loved this book, maybe even more than the first one. Finally, our magicians have made it through initiation after their first year of the Alexandrian Society, and now comes their studies. What the characters decide to do from this point on could determine the fate of society as we know it. This story is lush, dark, and seductive - definitely a binge-worthy read! This book and The Atlas Six (book one) are fantastic audiobooks. I really like the different voice actors they have for every character. They breathe life into this wonderful story.”
