Ruinous Ends

I.V. Marie's exquisite dark academia fantasy duology comes to an explosive conclusion! Perfect for fans of Olivie Blake and Leigh Bardugo.

THE SEQUEL TO IMMORTAL CONSEQUENCES, THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

The Decennial is over, but for the students of Blackwood Academy the fight for the afterlife has just begun.

For Blackwood Academy has been hiding more secrets – and lies – than any of the Decennial's participants could have imagined. And there's still so much that remains buried beneath its ancient foundations. Now, the future of the academy, and all the souls within it, rests in the hands of six former pupils:

The charmer and the golden boy.

The traitor and the girl desperate to save her.

The Chosen One. And the one who would choose her over and over again …

Any of them could be the hero the afterlife needs, or the villain who will destroy it for good. Because the truth is, Blackwood's biggest secret has yet to come to light and when it does, it will shake the institution to its core.

Welcome back to purgatory, where even immortality must come to an end.
