Atlas Six

Product Information

Following recruitment by the mysterious Atlas Blakely, they travel to the Society’s London headquarters. Here, each must study and innovate within esoteric subject areas. And if they can prove themselves, over the course of a year, they’ll survive. Most of them. As time passes for the characters, they are given instructions and dangerous quests that test their ability to problem solve and use their unique skills. The reader, knowing that only five of them will survive, is kept alert trying to work out which one could be eliminated and how this would be done. Each chapter is told in the voice of one of the characters, giving the reader one perspective on what is happening and insights into the feelings and beliefs of that person. Like Gallant by V.E. Schwab, the book is interspersed with illustrations, this time of each of the main protagonists. They are not labelled, and it is fun to try and work out who is portrayed.

Libby, who’d blissfully forgotten for a second that Nico was even there, bristled at the mention of Ezra. “Why wouldn’t he be here?” He also had a monstrous capacity to fool people into thinking he knew what he was talking about, which he resolutely did not. Sometimes, maybe. But certainly not always. Just get over it,” Libby muttered. Nico and Ezra had loathed each other during the two years they’d all been at NYUMA together before Ezra graduated, which happened to be a separate matter from Nico’s opposition to her. Nico had never met a hardship in his life, so the complexity of Ezra’s resiliency bore no consequence to him. Libby and Ezra both understood loss; Ezra’s mother had died when he was a child, leaving him without a parent or a home. Meanwhile, Nico had probably never even burned his toast. “As a reminder, you and Ezra never have to see each other again. We,” Libby amended belatedly, “never have to see each other again.” Following recruitment by the mysterious Atlas Blakely, they travel to the Society’s London headquarters. Here, each must study and innovate within arcane subject areas. And if they can prove themselves, over a year, they’ll survive.
