Hidden Legends

The rule holds in every hall of magic here: your gift can save you or it can kill you, and love only raises the stakes. Hidden Legends is a shared world of supernatural academies where college-aged mages, witches, and monsters fight to earn a place among their own kind — and fall, dangerously, for the very people most likely to be their undoing. Built together by Megan Linski and Alicia Rades, the world spans four interlocking series, each its own campus and its own trial. Academy of Magical Creatures pits students against one another for the Elemental Cup, where losing is fatal. University of Sorcery is a hunt for a fated mate among rivals who would rather watch you fall. College of Witchcraft binds a witch to a reaper in a romance that is forbidden for good reason. Prison for Supernatural Offenders follows the one everybody has already written off as the villain. The books run on dual points of view and a cast that is pointedly diverse, disabled, and refusing to apologize for it. The register is New Adult paranormal romance at full heat: steamy, propulsive, empowering, and unafraid of the dark. Every series stands on its own and, by the authors' own word, can be read in any order — so pick the door that calls loudest. For a newcomer, the Elemental Cup trials of Academy of Magical Creatures make the widest, clearest entrance into the world before you wander deeper.
