Zodiac Academy is the thrilling first installment in the bestselling dark fantasy series by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti, set in a magical world where the power of the stars determines your fate. The story centers on twin sisters Tory and Darcy Vega, who have spent their lives in poverty, unaware of their true identities. Everything changes when they discover they are the long-lost Fae heirs to the throne of Solaria. Whisked away to Zodiac Academy, a prestigious and ruthless school for powerful Fae, the twins quickly learn that their royal bloodline makes them targets rather than celebrities. The four reigning Heirs of the academy, each wielding incredible elemental magic, have decided that keeping the Vega twins powerless and miserable is their top priority, making every day a dangerous battle for survival.

What makes Zodiac Academy an absolutely addictive fantasy read is the perfect storm of enemies-to-lovers tension, dark humor, breathtaking world-building, and astrology-inspired magic that feels entirely original. Caroline Peckham and her co-author create a school setting that is part Hogwarts, part gladiatorial arena, and entirely their own. The twins are fierce, funny, and deeply relatable heroines who refuse to be broken no matter how hard the Heirs push. Readers who love new adult fantasy, slow-burn romance, morally complex characters, and magic systems rooted in zodiac lore will find themselves utterly hooked from the very first chapter, racing through the series long after they have finished this opening book.
