First published 2010
Eliot and Fiona Post carry the blood of enemies in their veins. Their mother Atropos ranks as the eldest Fate among the Immortal goddesses. Their father is Lucifer himself, ruler of the Infernal realm. The twins enter Paxington, a school where divine beings and mortal sorcerers train to master their abilities. Students who sit beside you in class may fight alongside you tomorrow or try to kill you next week. Warriors and gods walk the same halls, each learning to wield powers that could reshape worlds. Academic failure means death, not detention. Graduation requires surviving classmates who view you as competition to eliminate. Eliot and Fiona must navigate bloodlines that mark them as living symbols of an ancient war between realms that should never have mixed.
