Description
Enter a school of magic unlike any you have ever encountered: There are no teachers, no holidays, and no friendships save strategic ones. Survival is more important than any letter grade, for the school won't allow its students to leave until they graduate . . . or die. The rules are deceptively simple: Don't walk the halls alone. And beware of the monsters who lurk everywhere. El is uniquely prepared for the school's dangers. She may be without allies, but she possesses a dark power strong show more enough to level mountains and wipe out untold millions. It would be easy enough for El to defeat the monsters that prowl the school. The problem? Her powerful dark magic might also kill all the other students. So El is trying her hardest not to use her power . . . at least not until she has no other option. Meanwhile, her fellow student, the insufferable Orion Lake, is making heroism look like a breeze. He's saved hundreds of lives--including El's - with his flashy combat magic. But in the spring of their junior year, after Orion rescues El for the second time and makes her look like more of an outcast than she already is, she reaches an impulsive conclusion: Orion Lake must die. But El is about to learn some lessons she never could in the classroom: About the school. About Orion Lake. And about who she really is. show lessTags

Corinne-pixel The main characters of these two are similar; both are feared by their fellows but are actually a kind person who would do anything in their (considerable) power to help others.

rocks009 Young women learning their magic with a curious cast of characters
Aquila These are both variations on the "Why would you send your kids to a dangerous magical school?" question and they are wonderfully different. At the Scholomance everyone knows they are in danger, whereas Chetwood has health and safety paperwork and with it a lot more assumption that any danger has been mitigated. Very good books telling very different stories.

Why didn't anyone tell me the lead is a Murderbot? I would have read this much, much sooner.
Alright, the full review is here, with sub-spoilers:
Undoubtedly five stars. What makes it so? The ability to capture my attention and hold until finished, the daze of finishing, and the desire upon finishing to flip to the beginning and start reading all over again. Sure, it has some shortcomings. But I haven't felt like this since the first Murderbot. I was on the fence for months over reading this book. On the plus side, a number of my friends loved it. On the negative was the label 'young-adult' and everything that has become shorthand for--love triangles, fashion choices, and relationship drama. But Nataliya and Jennifer sang a siren song of buddy reads, and I gave it a shot, thinking I'd read a couple chapters then set it down. Oh, no--I finished it the same day.
Objections to this book are many, and likely played a role in my hesitancy. Chief among complaints is the combination of 'slow pace' and 'narrative-heavy' style Novik uses. I, perhaps unsurprisingly given my history, loved it.
The lead, Galadriel, or 'El,' is a conflicted, isolated young woman who has been told from her youngest memories that she'll be responsible for death and destruction, and her magical affinity and skills seem to point her the same direction. She asks the universe for a cleaning spell; she gets one to incinerate everything in her path. Other magical people are aware of this and shun her, while the mundane people avoid her in favor of her gentle, compassionate mother. El has become an outsider looking in, with only her mother having faith that her ethics are equal to her potential.
I feel like Novik and I must have read that same books as a child. Those books centered on introverted young women who felt like outsiders, heavy on the internal narrative and personal skill development and low on social interaction. Definitely Robin McKinley [b:The Blue Sword|407813|The Blue Sword (Damar, #1)|Robin McKinley|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1563198223l/407813._SY75_.jpg|2321296] and Patricia McKillip, with a heavy dose of fairy tale retellings. Uprooted was nice, although as I aged, found the development of relationship between the young lead and significantly older male wizard a bit too uncomfortable for modern times. It's one of those things that makes me think we had similar tastes, though, as there was a high prevalence of the exact thing in those childhood books (Anne McCaffery, [b:Dragonsong / Dragonsinger|28550|Dragonsong / Dragonsinger (Pern Harper Hall, #1-2)|Anne McCaffrey|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1540854722l/28550._SY75_.jpg|29078], McKinley again). Now she's taken that head-voice heroine to boarding school in A Deadly Education and I couldn't be happier with her modern, cynical twist (Gideon, without the non-sequiturs).
So it turned out that the major detraction is actually a feature in for me. What else? When I dug around, I discovered there's also a couple of items that provoked accusations of racism. I'll be honest, both scenes gave me a 'huh?' moment on first read. But even more honestly, probably for different reasons. The mention of dreadlocks was done awkwardly, though in my case, I put it down to modern authors' tendency to make sure they are being inclusive and Novik's general lack of describing characters' looks. The modern Arabic language bookwith it's picture of the car and people being hit didn't make sense to me either, mostly because the school seemed intent on teaching her mass-destruction skills, not ones on the scale of a handful of people, and to be really honest, the only incident with cars that immediately came to mind are all the ones we've had lately in the U.S. at anti-45 protests.
I like to think that I'm reasonably aware of many of my short-comings and prejudices. I appreciate people might perceive it differently, I'll throw out that both made me feel Novik was modifying her story for the audience, but in a more inclusive, albeit awkward, way.
The good stuff was everywhere: a lead character complex enough to realize some of her attitude was defensive and maladaptive, supporting characters that were developed enough to have both flaws and positive traits, a cast that included gender representation and a multinational cast, a conflict that became more about the environment than interpersonal angst, with lots of interesting magic and creatures to keep the fantasy element strong.
Novik does an absolutely believable job of El's growing emotional complexity and feels, and by the end of the book, she feels strangely familiar--almost like looking in a mirror.
"Yes, because just what I wanted was to make a friend of a rich enclave girl so I could routinely rub my face around in all the luxuries I couldn't have, all of which were in fact quite nice even if they didn't measure up to the things I'd chosen in their place. And if Chloe Rasmussen turned out to be an actual decent person and a real friend, that would mean the things I didn't have weren't necessarily incompatible with the things I really cared about, and how exactly I was meant to put that together about being discontented all the time, I didn't see"
Definitely a book that has earned a place in my library and will be re-read until the sequel is out September 28. Here's to my inspiring buddies, Nataliya and Jennifer, and to Emma for a great discussion!
Re-read July 2022 because I just love that tone. Such a nice balance between cynicism and hope. show less

The story is set in a school for wizards, but this is not Hogwarts. Something like half the students die, killed by magical monsters who are always waiting in ambush. Our protagonist is hugely talented, but also an outcast, not in one of the city based guilds that shower them with magical energy and resources. She battles the unjust way that the school is setup and forces the other students to confront that as well. Believable, exciting story with a prickly but sympathetic central character, and as always with Naomi Novik beautifully written. Recommended.
A dangerous magic boarding school story with a snarky reject harbinger-of-doom teen main character. Ostensibly YA, but quite obviously written at least as much for the now-adult Harry Potter fan contingent.
Clever, entertaining, fun, intertextual (the name of the school is the Scholomance!), with a definite thread of high school as a metaphor for/microcosm of adult life and modern equality power politics, for the enjoyment of folks who get into intellectualizing their fiction. I found it very hard to put this one down, and I'm looking forward to the second in the series later this year.

Wow - Naomi Novik knows how to worldbuild. She is a master of creating the most in depth, unique, and exciting fantasies. Admittedly, A Deadly Education drops readers right into the thick of it at the beginning of the book - and it takes a chapter or two to begin to understand the dangerous world that Galadriel is in. Galadriel is a teenage sorceress and she's only got one more year to go before she can hopefully graduate from the Scholomance, a school in the void that magic users from all over the world attend. It's a dark academy with no teachers, only creatures that lay wait for unsuspecting students. Far less than half the students make it to graduation - even less make it across the graduation hall to rejoin the world. Orion Lake show more has a bad habit of playing hero and he's saved Galadriel's life more than once now. But Galadriel doesn't want a savior - she just wants to make it out alive on her terms - she's not trying to make friends (which is good because she would be awful at it). Filled with a sprinkling of teenage drama, a load of big bad beasties, and lots of wonderful world building. I can't wait to read the next book in the series! show less

I’m never surprised when I love a Novik book. This one was a departure from her other books—the writing style is totally different—and it’s great.
Boarding school settings are among my favorites, and if there’s mystery or magic, all the better. Although I always doubt comparisons like the one I’m about to make, this really felt like Hogwarts meets Hunger Games.
I loved El’s cranky narrative voice, and how Novik gradually revealed deeper layers of her character. Her relationship with Orion is one of the most entertaining I’ve read in years. There is a great line in the second to last chapter—I’ll have to revisit this review once the book is published and include it—that topped things show more off perfectly with those two.
There have been plenty of books about schools for magic, but Novik pulled off a new, enthralling twist. I can’t wait for the next one.
Update 9/12: I read it again before release date, and it was even more fun the second time around! I don’t think I’ve ever reread a book so soon after reading it the first time, but the magic system and the way the school worked were complicated enough that a second read solidified it for me. I was just going to look over the first chapter or two to review, but El is such a great narrator, I decided to reread the whole thing. Worth it!
And I don’t mean to imply that the world is excessively complicated. There’s a lot of expository, but it’s certainly not a chore to get through—El’s pauses to explain how the school works are delightfully cranky and sarcastic. I think I just went through too quickly the first time and glossed over a few details.
The main vendor I use to purchase books for the library markets this for adults, but it felt more YA to me—the characters are teens, and it’s set at a high school, albeit a super strange one. I would recommend it to teens as well as adults.
2022 reread: It was great to reread this right after finishing the third book in the trilogy! Such fun to look at everything El says and thinks, knowing what I do now about how it all ends.It’s clear from the first sentence Novik had it all planned out and knew exactly where she was going. . I highlighted lots of details that the third book referred back to, things I didn’t give a lot of thought to the first couple of times I read them. Doing a reread this soon has been a great way to put off saying goodbye to El, Orion, and friends, and it’s increased my enjoyment of the series overall.
Thank you, Carol for inviting me to your flash read! show less

Galadriel is a wizard, and like her peers she is locked in a semi-malevolent, semi-sentient, steampunk, magical high school until their graduation day, when they will fight their way through a horde of monsters into the outside world. The other students can sense that something about Galadriel is weird, but they don’t know the half of it. She’s way more powerful than everyone else, but it takes all the will-power she can muster to keep from using her power for evil and ending up like one of the graduation day monsters. Her classmate Orion Lake is also very special, but in more of a “golden boy” kind of way - his magical powers grow stronger every time he kills a monster. The other kids are desperate to use him to their show more advantage, but Galadriel finds him super annoying….which he’s kind of into.
Wow, what a book! I loved the examination of wealth and privilege in academia through mana and the enclaves. The analogy worked very well. I also really appreciated the representation of what it’s truly like to not have any friends, and then how it feels to kind of make some when you’ve been alone for so long. Initially the first-person perspective annoyed me, but so much of the emotion and meaning are in El’s inner thoughts and her dissection of the world she’s trapped in that it wouldn’t work any other way. The world-building and the magic system are fantastic, and while the world is brutal it’s not because of any dumb choices humans make, and it makes sense that it would be that way. El as a character is fascinating - truly heroic because she has the potential to destroy everything but wakes up every morning and chooses not to. I’m super happy I finally got to this book and can’t wait to read more. show less

{first of Scholomance trilogy; fantasy, magic, school, young adult, YA}(2020)
A school for magic, a protagonist from the United Kingdom, a prophecy about them, bad guys out to get the students ... is this Harry Potter? Absolutely not.
The Scholomance is the school for wizards and is - not quite - in our world. The only way out is at graduation - or death. Students have a high mortality rate, what between the mals (bad monster-type entities) that make it in past the wards and other back stabbing students, but it's better than being out in the world where they would be easy pickings for mals until they've learned enough magic to take care of themselves.
El (Galadriel - but, hey) has an ominous aura about her, an affinity for the dark side show more and her great grandmother had a vision of her when she was a baby that foresaw her destroying the world. However her mum, Gwen, has been a force for good in her life - even though she hasn't seen her since she started at the Scholomance - and Gwen is a powerful healer who has brought El up to only use mana (energy you have to work for) for her magic. Everyone automatically assumes that El's on the side of evil and it would be easy for her to be a maleficier (user of dark energy) especially with the school constantly trying to push her towards the dark side but she wants to live by her mum's rules since she's been really the only family (or supporter) that El has. Oh - and when I say 'the school', I don't meant the teachers or the staff because there aren't any; I mean the Scholomance itself. You learn on your own and sometimes collaborate with others or you don't (survive, that is).
So El has learned the hard way, since everyone automatically assumes that she's the dark lord's heir, to only rely on herself. But she sometimes trades with other students for what she needs (since the portal into the Scholomance only lets you bring in a minimum amount of things for your entire stay there the one and only time that you enter) and maybe she collaborates with them too. Purely out of self-interest, of course, and not because she could maybe grow to like them as friends. And maybe, if they combine forces, she - and they - will have a chance of getting out of the Scholomance alive (and hopefully intact) when they're due to graduate three years later.
(PS: I'm guessing that Novik is a Liverpool FC supporter too - you never walk alone.)
Well written and good world building (I haven't told you about the enclaves out in the world that everyone who doesn't already belong is trying to earn their way into or ...). You know, you should just read it.
I keep looking forward to getting back to the book and then remember that I've already finished it. I'm wondering if I should forego my usual practice of spacing out a series and just read last two books of this trilogy. But then I won't have them to look forward to ... so maybe I'll stretch them out and savour them.

The magic and mystery of this chillingly lovely novel will appeal to both YA and adult fans of J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter books. . . . An unresolved ending leaves readers eager for the next installment.

I loved this book. It’s such a nail-biter, it’s funny, it’s thought-provoking, and it’s such a good read.
