5/24/2023 0 Comments A deadly education book seriesReaders will delight in the push-and-pull of El and Orion’s relationship, the fantastically detailed world, the clever magic system, and the matter-of-fact diversity of the student body. El and Orion must strike up an alliance to save themselves and their schoolmates from monstrous destruction. He keeps saving El before she can display her talents, and has killed so many lesser mals that the ones left are huge-and hungry. Todd Lieberman and David Hoberman will produce. But monster-slayer Orion Lake throws a wrench in the works. A Deadly Education is the first book in author Naomi Novik’s Scholomance trilogy, which Universal optioned in 2020 ahead of its publication. Dark sorceress El (short for Galadriel) has a plan for how she’ll make it through the gates alive next year: she’ll learn to control her affinity for destruction, make allies by impressing other students with her abilities, and stockpile magical energy. Graduation is the greatest challenge of all, and requires the students to fight their way through the sea of mals clustered outside the building. A Deadly Education is a nightmare from which I never wished to wake. The students of Scholomance, a boarding school for sorcerers, must weather survival-of-the-fittest trials, fighting off the Lovecraftian monsters known as maleficaria (or “mals”) that routinely break in to eat students. Novik ( Spinning Silver) puts a refreshingly dark, adult spin on the magical boarding school setting of the spellbinding first fantasy in her Scholomance trilogy. A Deadly Education Enter a school of magic unlike any you have ever encountered.There are no teachers, no holidays, friendships are purely strategic.
