About this listen

A queer, dark academia YA story about a mysterious boarding school, a brotherhood that must stay in the shadows, and an ancient evil that could tear it all apart.

In the fall of 1991, Zooey Orson transfers to the Blackfriars School for Boys hoping for a fresh start following a scandal at his last school. However, he quickly learns that he isn’t the only student keeping a secret. Before he knows it, he’s fallen in with a group of boys who all share the same secret, one which they can only express openly within the safety of the clandestine gatherings of the Vicious Circle—the covert club for gay students going back decades. But when the boys unwittingly happen upon the headmaster’s copy of an arcane occult text, they unleash an eldritch secret so terrible, it threatens to consume them all.

A queer paranormal story set during the still-raging AIDS crisis, Fraternity examines a time not so long ago when a secret brotherhood lurked in the shadows. What would Zooey and his friends do to protect their found family?

I really enjoyed Fraternity, the character development and story were engaging. The portrayal of the queer experience felt authentic and relevant to the present day too.

Captivating story about the queer experience with a dash of dark magic

Very well written and narrated by the three main characters. Interesting twist to a book about queer history. Everyone should get something positive out of this read. Although it’s fantasy there are common themes to current day technology and influence that are just as scary.

Excellent book highly recommend

This book is fantastic! The story takes us back to the early 90s where bigotry was as rampant as the AIDS pandemic. This book throws in a good dose of the occult, something that wouldn’t interest me but in this instance it is woven into the story sensitivity and intensely. Great characters that are beautifully crafted by Andy Mientus. The narrators are all flawless, including the author himself.

This audiobook is a triumph in every way and I highly recommend it. 5 ⭐️s
