Resumen del Editor

Dark magic is forbidden at Zodiac Academy. That’s why I hide it so well. But now, I’m supposed to mentor Darius Acrux, the son of the most ruthless dragon shifter in Solaria. If he’s caught using blood magic, he’ll lose his claim to the throne. The problem is? Our families are up to something, and we’re determined to find out what. No matter what dark power we must turn to....

Welcome to Zodiac Academy, where your star sign defines your destiny. As the Fae of the future, you will soon learn the merciless way to claim your power. Life among the vampires, shifters, and sirens is no easy ride, but if you can make it through your exams, you might just be able to harness your inner strength and earn your place among the elite.

This is a prequel novella set five years before Zodiac Academy: The Awakening, the first book in the Zodiac Academy series.

Definitely have to read!!

Lionel is the worst!!! I feel like he is only going to get worse as the series goes on. I loved getting a glimpse into Darius and Lance's relationship and can't wait to see how it affects the rest of the books!

Eating it up!

I will devour anything the sisters put out with enthusiasm. This was no different. Solaria is such an incredible place.

Can’t get enough

I absolutely loved this!!! Hearing Darius and Lance when they still had hope and were not wrapped up in the things that come later in the series is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Love the authors love the narrators, I am 100% a twisted sisters groupie at this point.

Not necessarily a "must"

First of all, Letting a narrator with a voice too deep to read a 14's point of view, it was a ｗ𝓮ἱ𝚛ď choice, I won't ட𝖏ǝ.
I recommend that if you want to try this novella then you should 𝑔𝖏Ⅴǝ 𝚞𝗉 on the audio version because it really ന𝞉ⅾē നē 𝚛О𝞘𝞘 ന𝒚 ē𝒚ēຮ
because it's 𝚛ÍⅾÍ𝗖𝖚𝞘О𝖚ຮ, no 14 years old boy sounds like that.
All in all, It was fine nothing more than that, it was a fine start for the series, but in general I'm not a fan of novelas... I'll start the first one soon.

Intense

This was such an intense opening into the world of The Zodiac Academy and the origins of Darius Acrux & Lance Orion. It definitely leaves you needing answers.

The narration was overly dramatic.

I’ve heard so much about this series so decided to start with this novella. To see if I would like it. I wanted to stop it several times because of the narration. A 14 y/o boy doesn’t have a voice like that. It was all distracting to the story line and often times overly dramatic.

The horrific narration

Could barely get past the narrators over exaggeration and mis-enunciation to even listen to the story.

Great Prequel

While you eventually learn about all the information presented in the book in the actual series, it is still a great way to learn about Orion and Darius. It goes more into depth of the night they got their bond and the night Lance’s sister died.

love it

I absolutely love the narration for this book Jake did an amazing job bringing this story to life for us. I love how he was able to show Orion the way he was before the rest of the series how we know him to be. This book gives such an amazing insight into the events before the ZA world we know and love❤️❤️

Ok, origin story

I guess for a prequel/ origin story it was enough. I am interested enough to want to know what happens next. So . . .

3.5 stars


I must've missed a whole bit when I read this before. Second time reading and I have a different understanding and REALLY want to know more. updated rating . . . 4.25 stars
