An Academy of Salt and Sacrifice (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Dark academia meets a new twist on the legend of Atlantis in this fresh historical romantasy inspired by Sri Lankan mythology, for readers of A Study in Drowning and Heavenly Bodies.

Find the lost academy. Rewrite destiny. Fall for a cursed god?

In rain-soaked Kelaniya, Savera refuses to be sacrificed to the sea god. Her last hope of survival lies in legend--find the sunken island of Kumari Kandam, and with it the Academy of Revision, where gods once rewrote fate itself. If she can find it, she can rewrite her ending. But only one being is rumored to know the way.

Sohon once was a heavenly scribe worshipped for his knowledge. Now, history has buried him under myths so monstrous, he'd rather not be remembered at all. To vanish for good, he must destroy the last record of himself, archived within the academy's library. When Savera's desperate prayer reaches him, he offers a bargain: he'll lead her to the academy...if she takes him with her.

Hunted by soldiers and a vengeful sea god, they flee across treacherous seas, bound by a false marriage and a growing attraction neither of them can afford. In stolen glances and shared nights, Savera begins to see the man beneath the myth; Sohon sees something far more dangerous: a reason to exist.

But the academy was never meant to be resurfaced. Within its shadowed halls and endless scrolls lies a magic that demands sacrifice. To claim it, Savera may have to choose between the destiny she's fought for and the god she was never meant to love.
