The Atlas Six

This book exhibits itself in a theme of dark academia and is a fun read. The world building if beautiful and every character is explored in depth and their interactions are thrilling, there is plotting, backstabbing and secrets are known that shouldn't be known, this book has amazing illustrations along with the fantastic writing which the author Olivie Blake regularly showcases! This is a must read and this book will keep you on edge, the twists at the end made me buy the second book which continued without flaw in perfect sequence and had bigger twists that blew my mind a must read. Praise for Olivie Blake!

I was a great read I loved it, the Book was enthreal, I love the pictures in between, but my only complain is that the condition of the day was not a good, I really hope that they can work on that, for the book I give it 4.5, and for the condition of the book I give it 2.5

This book was a long and boring journey for me. The one thing which I banked on which will save the book was the ending promised only 5 will remain from the 6. It's not that it is a bad ending but it was just as immediate that it didn't left us time to ponder on what is going to happen or how did this happen or what will happen now.Overall the concept and the premise was great for me in this book. It is just the execution that was lost on me. All these unique characters were introduced but I could not sympathize or empathize with any of them.Every characters had their own unique branch of magic, Atlas, Dalton, Libby, Nico, Tristan, Parisa, Callum, Reina, Ezra, Gideon. And I just loved whatever magic is shown in this part of the book. I loved the idea that magic and science go hand in hand.Most of philosophical debate that was there about death was just unnecessary, we picked up this book for its dark fantasy or dark academia. So it was just unnecessary in my mind.

The rating is for the quality, not the book itself.

The book is excellently written. Unique,dark characters. Mysterious magic. Unknown arts being meddled in by humans. Writing style is pretentious but it is a positive trait,somehow as its descriptive and seems to be a love letter to dark academia.

The media could not be loaded. Bought a book with soft cover. The book condition is good. I did not read the book as will be gifting it. But I think we could get this quality of books at a really lower price on the streets of cities. Overall satisfied with the book condition. Though there is one thing, I noticed there are few empty pages at the end of this book, not sure why- attaching the video.

Reading The Atlas Six felt like entering a dark, seductive academic maze — where knowledge is dangerous and no one is trustworthy. I didn’t expect to get so emotionally tangled in the characters, but each of them, especially Parisa and Reina, kept me questioning my own loyalties.It’s not a fast-paced fantasy — it’s dense, philosophical, and incredibly character-driven. There were moments I had to pause and just sit with a sentence. The morally gray decisions, the manipulation, the tension — it all made me wonder: what would I do if power was within reach, but only at someone else’s expense?If you like magic wrapped in intellect and drama, this book’s a wild, clever ride.

I liked the dark academia aspect behind it and i LOVED the concept. But the author completely wasted a great story potential into nothing but a dragsome plot. The second book, atlas paradox is really boring and you can use it as a sleep medication for insomnia. The Atlas Six was faaarrr better than Atlas Paradox.Don't waste your money on this, I'd recommend you to watch YouTube videos that explain the story of this book, if you're interested to know about it.
