Discover The Atlas Paradox, the electric dark academia sequel to the viral sensation The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake - a No.1 Sunday Times bestseller. Inside the Alexandrian Society, alliances will be tested, hearts will be broken, and all must pick a side.

Six magicians were offered the opportunity of a lifetime.
Five are now members of the Society.
And two paths lie before them.

In this thrilling next instalment, the secret society of Alexandrians is unmasked. Its newest recruits realize the institute is capable of raw, world-changing power. It's also headed by a man with plans to change life as we know it - and these are already underway. But the cost of this knowledge is as high as the price of power, and each initiate must choose which faction to follow. Yet as events gather momentum and dangers multiply, which of their alliances will hold? Can friendships hold true, and are enemies quite what they seem?
