Review: Zodiac Academy: Origins of an Academy Bully

 


Title: Zodiac Academy: Origins of An Academy Bully Supernatural Bullies and Beasts 

Series: Zodiac Academy; Supernatural Bullies and Beasts

Authors: Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti 

Release Date: July 2019



Dark magic is forbidden at Zodiac Academy.

That's why I hide it so well.


But now I'm supposed to mentor Darius Acrux: the son of the most ruthless Dragon Shifter in Solaria.


If he's caught using blood magic, he'll lose his claim to the throne.


The problem is? Our families are up to something, and we're determined to find out what. No matter what dark power we must turn to...


Welcome to Zodiac Academy, where your star sign defines your destiny.


As the Fae of the future, you will soon learn the merciless way to claim your power. Life among the Vampires, Shifters and Sirens is no easy ride, but if you can make it through your exams, you might just be able to harness your inner strength and earn your place among the elite.


This is a prequel novella set four years before Zodiac Academy: The Awakening, Book 1 in the Supernatural Bullies and Beasts series.



So this is my first read through for Zodiac Academy, & I started with Origins since it takes place a few years before Zodiac Academy book 1. 
I only know a little about the characters, based on what I know from Ruthless Boys series and I'm going in relatively blind. I will probably be spacing out some of the books throughout the year, partly because I've been in a huge book slump so taking on such a huge series all at once may do more harm. 
Origins introduces you a little to a couple of the making characters of Zodiac Academy- Lance & Darius. 
Darius is a newly awakened Dragon shifter, son of the most ruthless dragon shifters in the whole of Solaria & elite families. 
Lance is a vampire who's family has been tied with Darius' even before he was born. 
Their families were up to something, and together they were determined to find the answers even if it meant using Dark magic to get them. 
This was a novella that lets you meet two of the main characters in Zodiac Academy, and give you a little in sight on who they are and why they are the way they are before you get into the Zodiac Academy series. It was a quick read, and I enjoyed getting a glimpse into the characters lives. 
4⭐ out of 5⭐. 
0🌶️ out of 5🌶️.

Reread: Broken Bonds

  Title: Broken Bonds  Series: Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: June 2021 After the death of my mother and her Bonded, I was relieved to find my own Bonds.

After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure.

Review: Broken Ties

  Title: Broken Ties  Series: The Bonds That Tie  Author: J Bree Release Date: November 2025 From J. Bree, bestselling author of The Bonds That Tie comes the highly anticipated POV book that everyone has been crying out for. Even the strongest ties can be broken. 
After five years of searching, we thought nothing could compare to the devastation of our missing Bond. We were wrong. After a chance encounter, she’s been found; alive and enraged at being dragged back to the men she ran from. Made for us all, she's supposed to be the center of our world, but bringing our Bond home wasn't everything we imagined. With bravado that defies reason and lies that never taste right, nothing about our Bond’s story adds up. The Gifted community is in crisis, deception at every turn, and it’s getting harder by the minute not to show them all what we’re truly capable of. With our enemies closing in, one thing is for sure. 
 We won’t let her get away from us again. * Broken Bond is a full-...
