Learning has never been this deadly
A Deadly Education is set at Scholomance, a school for the magically gifted where failure means certain death (for real) — until one girl, El, begins to unlock its many secrets. There are no teachers, no holidays, and no friendships, save strategic ones. Survival is more important than any letter grade, for the school won’t allow its students to leave until they graduate… or die! The rules are deceptively simple: Don’t walk the halls alone. And beware of the monsters who lurk everywhere. El is uniquely prepared for the school’s dangers. She may be without allies, but she possesses a dark power strong enough to level mountains and wipe out millions. It would be easy enough for El to defeat the monsters that prowl the school. The problem? Her powerful dark magic might also kill all the other students.
Ooooh, a new Novik, I’m excited! I’ll admit I’ve only read Uprooted so far, but I have a few of her other books in my TBR and when I saw this cover…I’m a fan of this style cover! I know I am so easily swayed by covers, haha, but this also sounds really intriguing. A Deadly Education is expected September 29th 2020 from Del Rey.
I’ve still got her Temeraire series waiting for a read. 🙂
Same tbh lol
I’m really excited about this too! I love magic school stories😁
SAME! 😀
Yeeeeah, I desperately want this one lol.
It looks like it’s going to be amazing. 🙂
I seriously need to pick up a Naomi Novik book sometime soon. But a magic school??? I’m so excited!!
I really loved Uprooted but I also know a lot of people have issues with that one as well because of the romance in it so take that rec as you will. I’ve heard her dragon series is really great and want to start that one someday too!
Oh, okay! Thank you for the heads up, I’ll go in with a grain of salt. Ooh dragons sound so cool!
Oooh, YES! Now, don’t skewer me or anything (no, seriously, pitchforks down), but I kind of actually haven’t read any Novik books yet? I know, I’m as horrified as you are. But I’ve heard such good things about them, and I plan on this being my FIRST Novik book because … well, duh, I obviously can’t wait for this, either. have you read that blurb?! I’m only human. xD
Lol, no skewer here—there are soooo many things I haven’t read 😅. This one looks like it could be a great place to start with her work! 🙂
OMG my excitement for this can’t be contained!
I can’t wait to see what she’s done here. 🙂
I’m so excited for this one! I loved Uprooted, and I’m slowly working my way through her other books.
I loved Uprooted too! I plan to read Spinning Silver sometime this summer as well. 🙂
Oh yes, I really want this one in my life.
Lynn 😀
It looks so good!
Awesome!
