About this ebook

Mysterious necromancers. Wicked summoners. Fierce witches. Occasional familiars. Military experiments. Secret councils. Forbidden alliances. The Academy of Ancients will suck you in.

Briar Shroud has gone from foster child to full scholarship at the Academy of Ancients. Cool, right?

Not quite. Her upperclassman mentor Zachary sucks. He's hot, but he sucks at being a mentor. And a friend. And a person.

Her roommate's a paranormal, and the whole school is underground and a secret.

Know what else is bad? Briar learns she's a witch. And a rare type of witch, to boot.

It went from bad to worse—a picture of a sister she's never heard of appears at the school. A sister she knows nothing about.

And the rules seem hellbent on keeping Briar from learning the truth. And sometimes, it seems other forces would rather not see her alive.

Warning: This series will hook you! Violence can be found in this series of action-packed fantasy, with necromancers, summoners, and badass witches.

Ratings and reviews

I read a lot and this is by far one of my favorite books. I really like the pace of the plot and the suspense that is built. it moves fast enough to keep my attention while dropping hints for me to think about the larger plot. warning does end in a cliffhanger.

I didn't think I would like this book. even though it said YA . it was actually very good. I was starting to think the whole book was going to be about Briar be a b-----. But was wrong can't wait till I can buy the second one. And that's something else I hardly ever do is fund a series that I would actually buy! hope the next is as good! Joy Richards

Good as far as it goes. I really dislike these half finished tales where you have to buy/read 3 or 4 "books" to get to an actual conclusion.
