About this listen
Born with the ability to speak with the dead, Viola hates her magic. It killed her sister, Olivia, and if she doesn’t learn why, it will kill her too. Her only hope lies within the perilous walls of Gorhail Institute of Magic, where Olivia spent her final days.
There, Viola clashes with Sylas, a poison mage whose magic stems from three magical snakes. Immortal, tormented and reckless, Sylas is tethered to a life he never asked for and haunted by guilt for his father's death. His hatred for death mages runs deep, and he’s determined to keep Viola at a distance. But when an attack forces him to heal her, their fates become intertwined by a magical bond that threatens to upend his loyalties – and his common sense.
As more students start turning up dead, Viola and Sylas are drawn into an uneasy alliance that pulls them deeper into Gorhail’s treacherous passageways, where secrets fester beneath the stone and the dead do not rest. And as enemy lines begin to blur and their undeniable attraction grows, Viola and Sylas uncover a chilling conspiracy: someone is hunting mages for their magical relics, and if they can’t uncover the killer in time, Viola will be next.
Critic Reviews
‘A slow burn dark academia filled with delicious yearning, dripping with atmosphere, and a compelling mystery that kept me turning the pages late into the night’
(ELLIS HUNTER, author of Blood Bound)
(ELLIS HUNTER, author of Blood Bound)
'Sumptuous, decadent, and gripping, Deathbringer is a genre-bending feast of dark academia, murder mystery, and forbidden romance. Tagliareni bewitches with her richly-crafted world of necromancy and poison while masterfully layering in suspense. Gorhail ensnared me from the first page; this is one to be savored.' (Amélie Wen Zhao, author of The Scorpion and the Night Blossom)
