Arthur Gilchrist is about to step into the lion’s den. Each year, the most exceptional students in the realm are selected to attend the prestigious Mysterium Collegium where they are tempted with luxury and privilege while training to quash an uprising of an ancient order known as The Path. Arthur has been chosen. This is his chance to escape from the crushing grip of poverty and an opportunity to help his mother, but Arthur has a secret. He walks The Path. Join him on this quest through a land filled with danger and deception as he makes the treacherous journey to the seductive school. Stir in a dash of adventure, a spoonful of romance, a sprinkling of steampunk, a pinch of dark academia, a thimbleful of magic, a cup of intrigue, and you’ve got the recipe for a delicious fantasy with a zesty twist.
