A five-book young adult fantasy series
THE NEW
RITES
Some habits are more than habits.
Fifteen-year-old Everly Skye has kept the same morning ritual for thousands of days.
Then a school she never applied to sends an acceptance letter that already knows her count.
At Limen Academy, six teenagers discover that the things they have kept since childhood are rites, repeated actions capable of sustaining something ancient.
And when people stop keeping them, something else is waiting.
