Autorenporträt
Olivie Blake
Rezensionen
"The 14 tales in this dreamy collection showcase the distinctive style, big ideas, and slippery worldbuilding that have earned the author her large fan base. . . . By turns hopeful, sarcastic, silly, heartbreaking, deadpan, and ornate, these tales have something for everyone, whether they're already familiar with Blake's singular style or not. It's a treasure trove for adults who never stopped loving fairy tales and campfire stories."-Publishers Weekly, STARRED review

"While fans of the blockbuster author will enjoy her tales of star-crossed love, spicy paranormal encounters, and twists on classic mythology, they and other fantasy fans will be charmed and intrigued by the subtle, ironic, experimental tales in this collection. . . . This enchanting collection shows Blake's impressive range and will be a delight for many fantasy and romantasy fans."-Booklist

PRAISE FOR THE ATLAS TRILOGY

"The Atlas Six introduces six of the most devious, talented, and flawed characters to ever find themselves in a magical library, and then sets them against one another in a series of stunning betrayals and reversals. As much a delicious contest of wit, will, and passion as it is of magic, this book is half mystery, half puzzle, and wholly a delight."-Holly Black, New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Night

"Lethally smart. Filled with a cast of brilliantly realized characters, each entangled with one another in torturously delicious ways, The Atlas Six will grip you by the throat and refuse to let go. Olivie Blake is a mind-blowing talent."-Chloe Gong, New York Times bestselling author of Immortal Longings

"Compelling, entertaining, and addictive. The Atlas Six is academic Darwinism: survival of the smartest with a healthy dose of magic."-T.L. Huchu, author of The Library of The Dead

"This chilling story of ambition and magic will make you question your own morals as you grow to love (and hate) its fascinating, ruthless cast of characters. I utterly devoured this book."-Amanda Foody, New York Times bestselling author of All of Us Villains
