At Hothen Academy, even the truth must obey.Hunted by the kingdom they once called home, Callen Rusk, Princess Elowin Johito, and Lucio Berathen have escaped the beautiful horrors of Floria, only to discover that freedom has become more dangerous than captivity.With royal proclamations branding them enemies of the Crown, the three companions journey into Gracestine, a kingdom renowned for its scholars, magnificent institutions, and carefully preserved history.Their destination is Hothen Academy.Behind its prestigious walls lies the promise of answers concerning Callen's mysterious Ring, his impossible Black Mark, and the ancient forces that have begun to awaken across Estana. But Hothen is no ordinary institution of learning. Its scholars have spent generations perfecting the art of preserving knowledge, controlling identity, and deciding which truths deserve to survive.And some lessons are taught through suffering.As the companions descend deeper into the Academy's secrets, the distinction between education and cruelty begins to disappear. Meanwhile, beyond Gracestine's borders, old rivalries sharpen, political ambitions grow, and the fragile balance between Estana's kingdoms begins to unravel.For Callen, Elowin, and Lucio, finding the truth may be their only hope of survival.But knowledge is not always freedom. Sometimes, it is simply another form of imprisonment.An Academy of Lies is the third installment in Cameron Crafton's Songs of Estana, a sweeping dark fantasy series of forbidden love, political intrigue, ancient magic, and the terrible cost of challenging a world built upon injustice. *******Content AdvisoryAn Academy of Lies contains mature themes, graphic violence, disturbing scenes of bodily harm, horror, erasure, psychological abuse, and involuntary human experimentation.Certain passages feature particularly intense body horror and may be distressing to some readers, particularly in the later half of the novel.Reader discretion is advised.*****", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/816/201/9798162014089_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "19.99", "online_price" : "19.99", "our_price" : "19.99", "club_price" : "19.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
