Olivie blake the atlas six5/22/2023 ![]() The Atlas Six is full of ideas and concepts that-like some of the potential initiates of the Alexandrian Society-may be just dying to get out. Frustrations aside, I am curious to see how Blake pulls it off. The novel’s finale turns many things topsy-turvy with a game-changing reveal that requires a lot of explanation in this book, and probably a lot more in the next. The sometimes overwrought prose is notably dialogue-heavy, and that dialogue is described with a whole army of verbs. But the writing is tuned to a very specific key, and it’s one that doesn’t sing for everyone. If you click with the writing and the characters, there’s plenty to luxuriate in. This is scene-setting and background, banter and bickering, seductions and exploration. Partly, it’s that it feels a bit like a very long prologue. ![]() ![]() Give me mysterious societies with magical libraries! Give me bickering twentysomethings striving for greatness and power and debating what power means and is worth!. For fans of Olivie Blake’s The Atlas Six (and other works) Created Aug 3, 2021. The strangest thing about The Atlas Six is that when I talk about it-when I think about it and read about it and search out interviews with the author-everything appeals. Currently reading, no spoilers please At first, I thought this book was stereotypical and boring. The Atlas Six è il primo romanzo della trilogia di Olivie Blake, autrice che promette di diventare presto uno dei nomi più in voga nel panorama fantasy. ![]()
