The Fae Academy: A Tale of Magic, Rivalry, and Forbidden Love

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

She arrived in chains. She'll leave as a legend—or not at all.

Kaelith Thornwood never asked for the binding marks on her arms. She never wanted the power that killed a Council emissary. And she certainly never expected to be dragged to Thornwood Academy, an elite fae school that feels more like a prison than a sanctuary.

The Academy has four houses. Three want her dead. The fourth—Thorn Court—hasn't accepted a student in fifty years.

During the sorting ceremony, the withered black rose of Thorn Court calls her home, revealing a truth the Council has buried for generations: Kaelith is the lost Thorn heir.

Suddenly, she becomes the most dangerous student in the Academy. Ancient wards recognize her. Magic bends around her. Even the Combat Arena refuses to arm her—because it knows she doesn't need a weapon.

Assigned to watch her is Vaerys Duskhollow, a Night Court prefect from a family entwined with the Academy's darkest secrets. Cold, disciplined, and loyal to his duty, he's trained to eliminate threats—not fall for them.

As long-hidden lies unravel, Kaelith and Vaerys uncover a deadly prophecy, a tower filled with forgotten prisoners, and a conspiracy reaching far beyond the Academy walls. At the heart of it all lies a terrifying truth: the source of fae magic is dying, and only a Thorn heir can save it.

The prophecy says Kaelith won't survive.

But prophecies are warnings, not sentences—and Kaelith Thornwood has never been very good at following orders.

Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing, A Court of Thorns and Roses, and Zodiac Academy, The Fae Academy delivers deadly trials, forbidden romance, ancient magic, and a heroine who was never the underdog—she was always the threat.
