Olivie Blake

Det alexandrinske selskab er en berygtet, ældgammel orden af verdens mest magtfulde magikere, der har svoret at beskytte antikke hemmeligheder. Hvert tiende år rekrutteres seks potentielle medlemmer, men kun fem vil få optag, mens én vil blive elimineret. De seks udvalgte må kæmpe for adgangen til kostbar viden – og samtidigt forsøge at undgå et blodbad. Atlas six – initiativet er første medrivende bind i Olivie Blakes stort anlagte trilogi om seks elitemagikere, som træder ind i en verden af hemmeligheder, hvor forræderi, forførelse, magt og uovertruffen magi lurer overalt

En eksplosiv tilbagevenden til biblioteket gør de seks alexandrinere sårbare over for de dødeli - ge vilkår, de blev hvervet under. Snart er gamle alliancer i opbrud, og der anlægges modsatrettede strategier for at håndtere den dødelige aftale, de hidtil har forsømt at leve op til. Samtidig er Atlas Blakely i færd med at gennemføre en plan med verdensombringende konsekvenser, og det er nu et kapløb for blot at overleve. Undervejs tvinges de seks alexandrinske medlemmer til at vælge, hvor langt de er villige til at gå for ubegrænset magt – og hvem der bliver tilintetgjort undervejs. Atlas six – komplekset er den hæsblæsende afslutning på Olivie Blakes stort anlagte trilogi om seks elitemagikere, som træder ind i en verden af hemmeligheder, hvor forræderi, for - førelse, magt og uovertruffen magi lurer overalt

Det alexandrinske selskab er en hemmelig orden med magt til at forandre verden, og kun de fremmeste magikere opnår en plads. Men snart skal de alle opdage, at verden ikke er så sort-hvid, som de har troet. Alliancer, der før var sikre og stabile, begynder at bryde sammen, usandsynlige forbund indgås, og selskabets leder skal vise sig allerede at have sat skæbnesvangre planer i værk. Atlas six – paradokset er andet forrygende bind i Olivie Blakes stort anlagte trilogi om seks elitemagikere, som træder ind i en verden af hemmeligheder, hvor forræderi, forførelse, magt og uovertruffen magi lurer overalt.

DELUXE EDITION--a gorgeous paperback edition featuring beautiful purple sprayed edges and a special bonus story An instant New York Times, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and Indie bestseller From the New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six comes Masters of Death, a story about vampires, ghosts, and death itself. There is a game that the immortals play. There is only one rule: Don't lose. Viola Marek is a struggling real estate agent, and a vampire. But her biggest problem currently is that the house she needs to sell is haunted. The ghost haunting the mansion has been murdered, and until he can solve the mystery of how he died, he refuses to move on. Fox D'Mora is a medium, and though he is also most-definitely a shameless fraud, he isn't entirely without his uses--seeing as he's actually the godson of Death. When Viola seeks out Fox to help her with the ghost infestation, he becomes inextricably involved in a quest that neither he nor Vi expects (or wants). But with the help of an unruly poltergeist, a demonic personal trainer, a sharp-voiced angel, a love-stricken reaper, and a few mindfulness-practicing creatures, Vi and Fox soon discover that the difference between a mysterious lost love and an annoying dead body isn't nearly as distinct as they thought.
