Det alexandrinske selskab er en berygtet, ældgammel orden af verdens mest magtfulde magikere, der har svoret at beskytte antikke hemmeligheder. Hvert tiende år rekrutteres seks potentielle medlemmer, men kun fem vil få optag, mens én vil blive elimineret. De seks udvalgte må kæmpe for adgangen til kostbar viden – og samtidigt forsøge at undgå et blodbad. Atlas six – initiativet er første medrivende bind i Olivie Blakes stort anlagte trilogi om seks elitemagikere, som træder ind i en verden af hemmeligheder, hvor forræderi, forførelse, magt og uovertruffen magi lurer overalt

En eksplosiv tilbagevenden til biblioteket gør de seks alexandrinere sårbare over for de dødeli - ge vilkår, de blev hvervet under. Snart er gamle alliancer i opbrud, og der anlægges modsatrettede strategier for at håndtere den dødelige aftale, de hidtil har forsømt at leve op til. Samtidig er Atlas Blakely i færd med at gennemføre en plan med verdensombringende konsekvenser, og det er nu et kapløb for blot at overleve. Undervejs tvinges de seks alexandrinske medlemmer til at vælge, hvor langt de er villige til at gå for ubegrænset magt – og hvem der bliver tilintetgjort undervejs. Atlas six – komplekset er den hæsblæsende afslutning på Olivie Blakes stort anlagte trilogi om seks elitemagikere, som træder ind i en verden af hemmeligheder, hvor forræderi, for - førelse, magt og uovertruffen magi lurer overalt

Det alexandrinske selskab er en hemmelig orden med magt til at forandre verden, og kun de fremmeste magikere opnår en plads. Men snart skal de alle opdage, at verden ikke er så sort-hvid, som de har troet. Alliancer, der før var sikre og stabile, begynder at bryde sammen, usandsynlige forbund indgås, og selskabets leder skal vise sig allerede at have sat skæbnesvangre planer i værk. Atlas six – paradokset er andet forrygende bind i Olivie Blakes stort anlagte trilogi om seks elitemagikere, som træder ind i en verden af hemmeligheder, hvor forræderi, forførelse, magt og uovertruffen magi lurer overalt.
