The Myth of Monsters
In a Venetian boarding school where history’s shadows cling to every stone, legends are not just remembered, they are alive. At the Accademia del Forte, students carry the blood of creatures once branded as monsters in Greek myth. Their powers are unruly, their emotions dangerous, and their place in the world carefully controlled by gods who still demand obedience.
At the heart of the story is Ava, a girl whose anger flickers into something far more powerful than she ever imagined. Her journey begins with the unsettling discovery that she can freeze another human being, and from that moment, nothing feels safe or ordinary again. Within the academy’s marble halls, she uncovers truths buried under centuries of mythmaking, where questions of power, justice, and identity cut deeper than any blade.
The series unfolds with a haunting mix of adventure and intimacy. Venetian canals, frozen corridors, and mythic landscapes create an atmosphere that feels both timeless and urgent. Friendship and loyalty guide Ava as much as fury and defiance, and every challenge forces her to decide whether to accept the stories she has inherited or to write her own.
The Myth of Monsters consists of two books and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
