Zodiac Academy: Sorrow and Starlight Part 3

Welcome back, readers! This week's episode rings in with some new POVs and the beginnings of a plan to retrieve Darcy and Orion from Lavinia's clutches. Things are looking rough for our twin flames, but fear not. An unlikely ally (or three) may keep our protagonists out of harm's way. Plus, there are still so many questions to answer. Will Darcy be able to overcome the curse? Who will Tory turn to when her most trusted confidants are gone? Will Darius ever be able to return to us? Did Darcy really see a falling star and FORGET to tell Orion??? And WHY does Caleb think flashing a peace sign is code for Seth sleeping around?! Join us this week for part three of Sorrow and Starlight.

Zodiac Academy: Sorrow and Starlight Part 2

Last week, we discussed the intense loss and heartache caused by the end of Heartless Sky. The sorrow is not over, but there's definitely some light in the darkness. This week, Tory barrels her way through the Library of the Lost in search of answers to her star vow, while we learn of Lionel's plot to wield Gabriel as a toll in his war. On the upside, Leon has a plan to thwart Gabriel's visions...how will that go? Plus, an unlikely ally joins our cause. Hang onto your nummy pouches and join us for this wild ride.

Zodiac Academy: Sorrow and Starlight Part 1

After the truly devastating ending from the last episode, we return to what some say is the hardest book in the series. It looks like the first chapters live up the name. As Tory, Xavier, and the rebels grieve over the loss of many loved ones, Darcy and Orion's fates are once again thrown into peril. A deal is struck, and more lives are on the line. Tory and Gerry rescue the heirs, along with their parents, in an awe-inspiring showdown at Acrux Manor... but will it be enough of a win to stoke the fires of the rebellion? Join us this week to find out.

Zodiac Academy: Heartless Sky Part 6

A day late and an aura short, am I right? Or in this case... we might be short many things, including some important members of the series, and a sizeable chunk of our rebel army. We may have caught the mysterious murderer, but we're not celebrating. A new prophecy unfolds as we watch our favorite moments from this book - divine or not - unravel in an instant. Join us this week for the heartbreaking end of Heartless Sky. 

Zodiac Academy: Heartless Sky Part 5

We must've been drinking some Rainbow Juice for this episode because we're full of giggles. It's one of the most entertaining sections of Heartless Sky yet! The A.S.S. club gets up to crazy shenanigans after Tory and Darcy's return. Darcy and Orion become exhibitionists. Tyler gets... taken down a peg. And Xavier finally gets that prank in on Gabriel! Join us this week for cowboy hats and rhinestones galore. 
 
P.S. Happy Onyx Storm day!

Zodiac Academy: Heartless Sky Part 4

Chat, can we all agree that this level of chaos is incredibly fun? Aside from the union from Hell - Lionel and Lavinia - the A.S.S. gang is making kicking ass and taking names. A potential murderer is apprehended (a PLANT anyone???), Gerry scoops an eye, and Xavier shines in his gilded rainbow armor! On the other hand, He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Shamed and Darcy get busy with some books, while Seth struggles with his unrequited love. Leon brings some extra insane energy to the party as well. How are we feeling readers? Sound off in the comments. 

Zodiac Academy: Heartless Sky Part 3

Sorry folks - we had a delay on posting this week because of an error with our host. But we're back with a new episode! It's about time we confront some dark magic. Many, might I add - nymph eyes, curses, artifacts, oh my! In this episode we get some fun action in the war against the nymphs and learn some of the history behind Vard's nasty little red eye. We also finally confront what the characters have all been avoiding - Darcy's curse - visit an ancient library to look for cures. This section was one of my favorites so far. What did you guys think? Let us know!

Zodiac Academy: Heartless Sky Part 2

On this week's episode, we get a battle, a murder, a divorce, and a marriage all in about six chapters! So much happens in this section - and we are here for it. So far, this is probably one of the best books of the series for us. So many fun things are happening in this book - not including the murder mystery of course, or the shadowy bitch demon. Or the fact that Darius still can't seem to fucking accept the fact that he is in love with the heir to the throne! So many fun things! But hey, at least there's a wedding right?

Empyrean Series Teaser: Violet's Signet

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, readers! We hope you are as excited as we are about the upcoming release of Onyx Storm, so we decided to release a short teaser for season 2! We cannot wait to discuss our theories about Fourth Wing and Iron Flame - and we hope you join us. What do you think Violet's second signet is? We'd love to hear your thoughts. 

Zodiac Academy: Heartless Sky Part 1

We've finally made it to book 7. And we're jumping right in. The last book ended on a bittersweet note - we got some major victories at a major price. But now that our heroes are organizing, how will things go? We get our first POV from Lionel as his plans are interrupted. We learn some things about Lionel's past, much to our dismay. And suddenly.. there's a murderer within our ranks. Who could it be? Join us this week for Heartless Sky.
