Does this count as dark academia? If so, it's the only dark academia one I actually like. If not and it's more of just a straight up fantasy, it's still super good. I need to listen to the second book. It's a great teen battle royale kind of premise with similarities to the hunger games last book of the opponents banding together to want to break the system so it stops feeding on the lives of children. Really like Alistair's character and Isobel's character. Not the biggest fan of Briony and generally like Gavin as well. This is told in multiple POVs so if that's not your thing, maybe skip. But I want to know how everything ends.

Be prepared for a cliffhanger ending. It lost a star for not being a contained narrative.
