Publisher's summary

From the Amazon.com and Wall Street Journal #1 bestselling authors of the Zodiac Academy series Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti.

The dragons are lost.

The elements are at war.

And fate doesn't favour the wicked.

***This is an enemies to lovers romantasy series set in the same world as Zodiac Academy, but it's a dark and villainous tale of its own. You haven't met tainted souls like these before or enemies that hate each other as deeply as these characters do. Book 1 in the series will leave your heart raw and bloody. You'll be left gasping for breath and aching for more of the dark and twisted Fae who lurk in the story and they might just be irredeemable...***

Perfection

I usually don’t start series that aren’t finished but I made an exception for the twisted sisters. And it was so so worth it. Alas the cliffhanger has me wanting more because it was so shocking. This plot was amazing. The character build up, the world unfolding, the secrets revealed…just perfection. *Chefs Kiss*
I hope they release these as fast as ZA because I am definitely going to Sprint to buy this series too

Solaria adjacent and it is RUTHLESS! 👀

I am so excited that this isn’t a RH. 👏 I love when these authors write a cast of characters with various relationships. This first installment is heavy on the enemies and less on the lovers—which I love bc, YES, to the torturous journey we are about to embark on! I am so looking forward to how each relationship will evolve/emerge as the series progresses.

Bridget and Jake have narrated most of the books in Solaria, and hearing them was like putting on comfy, worn slippers.

Loving this new series!

I cannot wait to see where this series heads. I want to preface, yes this is set in the same “universe” as ZA but in no way shape or form are they similar IMO. Never Keep felt so much more…Medieval? The writing of the twisted sisters felt more mature as well. I’ve read almost their entire backlog and this felt like new authors.

There is a LOT of action, like WAR action. Killing, maiming, you know the kind. Not a ton of romance but I didn’t miss it. The world building was slightly clunky as in my pea brain couldn’t figure out the map of this place, like the actual location not Never Keep. There was a lot of repeating of information I felt was unnecessary but all in all…gripping and fantastic.

Vesper is my girl. She’s a complete biotch and I’m here for it. Pink haired witch queen. I got slightly annoyed with Everest and her quirkiness but that’s ok. I need more of Kaiser. Yesterday. I’m so intrigued for the rest of the series!

The Bordeaux’s do a fantastic job as always. No complaints from them.

Also the ending…true twisted sister fashion…dafuq? Why? Rude. I cannot with you two. CANNOT.

Blue means you!

I love where this story is headed and all the nods to Zodiac Academy! A little heartbroken about how this book ended but excited to see how cold hard revenge looks on these characters.

Welcome to the next epic fantasy by the authors of Zodiac Academy, set in a different country as Solaria, we get to see a whole new side of the Fae. The Endless War has raged between the 4 nations of this land, one nation for each element, and everyone is divided by element you hold, if you have more than one you become a Reaper, the keepers of the stars commands. This is a land torn apart by war, mistrust, and hatred of anyone who is not like you. At 21 all fae go to have their power awakened and for a chance to train at Never Keep for a year. This is no Zodiac Academy, but a whole new academy experience.

Our two main characters are Everest, of Raincarvers (Water) & Vesper, aka the Sky Witch, of Stormfell (Air). These two from two sides of the war, but sometimes when a secret runs too deep, even enemies band together.

This book is a good amount of world building since there are some very big differences in the culture from the Solaria World books to here. We even get to see a number of new order forms which I absolutely loved! I was hooked from the very beginning on this book & could not put it down. The new characters are amazing, the world is amazing, the enemies are amazing. Some I want to hate and others I am not sure if I actually do. This book was everything I needed from my Zodiac Academy withdrawal.

The audiobook, as always, was so well done! Bridget & Jake Bordeaux did a phenomenal job on this one. I loved listneing to it.

back to Solaria we go ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm so happy to be back on another adventure in Solaria even if it's with different characters. I love that one of the main characters is a Pisces like me and she's so creative, colorful, and awesome. I'm unsure who my favorite character is yet and the betrayal of the little dragon 💔😭 I will say no more 😭. I really can't wait for the next book.

Waiting on the next book is always the hardest part

So just to start, the familiarity of the same narrators is a blessing and a curse. Reminding me of Zodiac Academy with every chapter. The story starts off in an unconventional way but slowly and surely turns into the kind of story the two authors are known for. Both MC's have complex backgrounds but the only one I can stomach is Vesper. The other lets her vengeance cloud her judgment. And leads to so much whining and complaining. Not sure why you can't be likable and fierce. Thus far, the most intriguing characters are Kaiser and Bastian. Hell, even Caden. I'm really looking forward to their stories.

Suspense, secrets, and surprises

The tension throughout this book made it hard to stop! So many questions need answered throughout the entire book and those answers will take you by surprise. EVERY. TIME. The female main characters make you cheer for their strength of will and character, as well as their wickedness.
