Those who earn a place among the Alexandrians will secure a life of wealth, power, and prestige beyond their wildest dreams, and each decade, only the six most uniquely talented magicians are selected to be considered for initiation.
Enter the latest round of six: Libby Rhodes and Nico de Varona, unwilling halves of an unfathomable whole, who exert uncanny control over every element of physicality. Reina Mori, a naturalist, who can intuit the language of life itself. Parisa Kamali, a telepath who can traverse the depths of the subconscious, navigating worlds inside the human mind. Callum Nova, an empath easily mistaken for a manipulative illusionist, who can influence the intimate workings of a person’s inner self. Finally, there is Tristan Caine, who can see through illusions to a new structure of reality—an ability so rare that neither he nor his peers can fully grasp its implications.
When the candidates are recruited by the mysterious Atlas Blakely, they are told they will have one year to qualify for initiation, during which time they will be permitted preliminary access to the Society’s archives and judged based on their contributions to various subjects of impossibility: time and space, luck and thought, life and death. Five, they are told, will be initiated. One will be eliminated.
The six potential initiates will fight to survive the next year of their lives, and if they can prove themselves to be the best among their rivals, most of them will. Most of them.

The Atlas
2 books in catalog
Dark academia and speculative fantasy reached new audiences through the viral success of the Atlas trilogy, beginning with the bestseller The Atlas Six. Written by American author Olivie Blake—the pen name of Alexene Farol Follmuth—the series follows six magicians competing for five coveted spots in a secretive society that holds world-altering magical knowledge and power.
Born in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1989, Follmuth initially pursued a premed track before attending law school. She shifted her focus toward creative writing after pivoting away from her legal career, initially writing fan fiction online before publishing original work. Her self-published speculative novel The Atlas Six gained widespread viral attention on TikTok, leading to major publishing contracts and New York Times bestseller status. Writing adult fantasy, paranormal fiction, and thrillers under her pen name Olivie Blake, she also publishes young adult fiction under her legal name, including My Mechanical Romance and Twelfth Knight. She resides in Los Angeles with her husband, son, and rescue pit bull.
Blake's speculative fiction frequently explores intricate human relationships, dark academic settings, and supernatural institutions. Her storytelling combines ensemble casts and high-stakes moral dilemmas with character-driven narrative arcs that examine power dynamics, existential questions, and human intimacy. Beyond her dark academia novels, her bibliography spans paranormal stories, literary romance, graphic narratives such as Clara and the Devil (co-created with Little Chmura), and short fiction featured in her collection Januaries.
