Six of Crows: Young criminal prodigy Kaz Brekker is offered the chance at a heist that should be impossible. To pull it off, he'll need the help of his crew: a spy, a runaway, a sharpshooter, a convict, and a heartrender.
And if they don't tear each other apart first, they might just be able to pull it off. The Atlas Six: Six candidates are recruited to potentially be initiated into Alexandrian Society by the mysterious Atlas Blakely.
This is a secret society that includes some of the best magical academicians in the world, and only six are chosen each decade.
To earn initiation, they must spend one year together and justify their contributions. Of the six — Libby and Nicolás (can control matter with their minds), Reina (a naturalist), Parisa (a mind reader), Tristan (can see the secrets of the universe), Callum (might bring about the end of the world) — five will actually get initiated.
