Description
Enter a magical school where survival is far from guaranteed. A Deadly Education follows El Higgins, a dark sorceress-in-training at Scholomance, an elite and notoriously lethal academy where students must navigate not only rigorous magical instruction but also the school's own deadly architecture and the malevolent creatures that lurk within its halls. With her cynical wit and pragmatic approach to magic, El must forge unlikely alliances and master dangerous spells to stay alive in an institution designed to kill. Naomi Novik crafts a darkly witty coming-of-age fantasy that subverts the typical magical school narrative, blending sharp humor with genuine peril and exploring themes of power, prejudice, and survival. This is a thrilling tale of ambition and resilience where the greatest threat may not be the monsters in the corridors, but the system itself.
