Product Description

Page Whittaker has always been an outcast. She's too smart, too quiet, too weird. And after the deadly incident that destroyed her only friendship at her old school, she needs a fresh start. Agathion College is everything Page has ever wanted: a safe haven of wood-panelled halls and dusty books, on a remote Scottish moor. And for the first time in her life, she has a close group of friends. Cyrus, Ren, Gideon, Lacey and Oak help her feel at home at Agathion; the only problem is, they're all keeping secrets from her. Page doesn't know it yet, but her perfect new school has a crooked foundation, rooted in an ancient clandestine society with rumoured ties to demonic magic. Soon, Page will learn that not everyone at Agathion is who they say they are. Least of all, her friends. Agathion claims to teach its students history...but some histories are better left buried. A wonderfully captivating dark academia fantasy from the award-winning author of A Hunger of Thorns and Deep is the Fen.

    Page never felt she belonged growing up in an ordinary family in Florida. But when she is selected to attend a prestigious yet mysterious boarding school in the Scottish Highlands, she finally gets the sense that she belongs. All of the students of Agathion College are the rebellious or difficult children of wealthy and famous parents—except for Page. Agathion provides a way for the students to master their minds and their bodies. Page loves the rigours of study in the classical education style and history of ancient Roman and Greek philosophies. She gravitates to a small group of students who welcome her at arm’s length and soon trusts them enough to share what she did to land her in this school in another country. But Page’s new friends don’t seem shocked by her admission. The whisper of magic becomes more than just a whisper when Page tumbles into a millennium old fight between demons, gods and humans.
