The Last GraduateThe Last Graduate

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ́ђØ The specter of graduation looms large as Naomi Noviḱђةs groundbreaking, New York Times bestselling trilogy continues in the stunning sequel to A Deadly Education. In Wisdom, Shelter. That́ђةs the official motto of the Scholomance. I suppose you could even argue that it́ђةs truéђؤonly the wisdom is hard to come by, so the shelteŕђةs rather scant.℗¡ ℗¡ Our beloved school does its best to devour all its studentśђؤbut now that Íђةve reached my senior year and have actually won myself a handful of allies, it́ђةs suddenly developed a very particular craving for me. And even if I somehow make it through the endless waves of maleficaria that it keeps throwing at me in between grueling homework assignments, I haveńђةt any idea how my allies and I are going to make it through the graduation hall alive.℗¡ ℗¡ Unless, of course, I finally accept my foretold destiny of dark sorcery and destruction. That would certainly let me sail straight out of here. The course of wisdom, surely. ℗¡ But Íђةm not giving ińђؤnot to the mals, not to fate, and especially not to the Scholomance. Íђةm going to get myself and my friends out of this hideous place for good́ђؤeven if it́ђةs the℗¡last℗¡thing I do. With keen insight and mordant humor, Novik reminds us that sometimes it is not enough to rewrite the ruleśђؤsometimes, you need to toss out the entire rulebook. The magic of the Scholomance trilogy will continue in 2022
