“A full cast of narrators, including the author, delivers this enchanting collection of short stories about love, magic, and betrayal.”—AudioFile

This program features multicast narration.

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six comes Januaries, a stunning collection of short fiction featuring fourteen magical ruminations on life, death, and the love—or desire for revenge—that outlasts both

Once upon a time in a land far, far away, a wish-granting spirit rapidly approaches burnout. Meanwhile, a banished fairy answers a Craigslist ad, a Victorian orphan navigates an occult situationship, and a multiverse assassin contemplates the one who got away.

With both iconic fan-favorite stories and entirely original pieces, Januaries features modified fairy tales, contemporary heists, absurdist poetry, and at least one set of actual wedding vows. Escape the slow trudge of mortality by diving into these enchanting new worlds with a master of imagination.

Reseñas de la Crítica

<p><b>PRAISE FOR THE ATLAS TRILOGY</b><br><br>"<i>The Atlas Six</i> 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, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Book of Night</i><br><br>"Lethally smart. Filled with a cast of brilliantly realized characters, each entangled with one another in torturously delicious ways, <i>The Atlas Six</i> will grip you by the throat and refuse to let go. Olivie Blake is a mind-blowing talent."—Chloe Gong, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>These Violent Delights</i><br><br>"Compelling, entertaining, and addictive. <i>The Atlas Six</i> is academic Darwinism: survival of the smartest with a healthy dose of magic."—T.L. Huchu, author of <i>The Library of The Dead</i><br><br><i>"</i>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, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of <i>All of Us Villains</i></p>

This was beautiful

I love this. Full of complex characters, hope and betrayal. Each story was epic and beautiful and its own way.

I love Olivie Blake’s brain

Every story is perfect. Each world big enough to visit and explore for months. Like visiting a new country for exactly one day and having a Lizzy McGuire vespa tour Paolo scandal, leaving the next day feeling sated and insatiable
