In a world where magic is the ultimate power, the Alexandrian Society stands as a beacon of ancient knowledge and untold secrets. This secret society of elite magical academicians selects only the most uniquely talented magicians to join their ranks, promising them a life of unimaginable wealth, power, and prestige. Every decade, six candidates are chosen to undergo a rigorous initiation process. Among them are Libby Rhodes and Nicolás Ferrer de Varona, cosmologists with the ability to manipulate matter; Reina Mori, a naturalist who communicates with life itself; Parisa Kamali, a mind reader with irresistible allure; Tristan Caine, the son of a crime lord with cosmic insights; and Callum Nova, a wealthy prodigy with the potential to end the world. Guided by the enigmatic Atlas Blakely, these candidates must spend a year together, delving into the Society’s archives and proving their worth. Only five will be initiated; one will be eliminated. The stakes are high, and survival is not guaranteed for all.
