William Filiti

The Seven Geniuses

Wil’s biggest concern should have been surviving high school - not a war. Then armed men storm his school, people start dying, and Wil discovers that he and six other students are at the centre of a prophecy. And that’s only the beginning. The seven possess abilities they barely understand, and suddenly everyone seems to want something from them. Hunted by powerful enemies and aided by allies they aren’t sure they can trust, they’re dragged into a hidden war of magic, secrets, and blood. At first, they only want to survive. But every battle changes them. Friends become soldiers. Innocence becomes vengeance. And as the truth behind their powers begins to surface, Wil starts to fear that the prophecy was never meant to save the world. It was meant to break it. Somewhere behind the bloodshed, someone is pulling the strings - watching, waiting, and shaping the seven into exactly what they need them to become. Because the prophecy never promised they would all survive. Seven geniuses. One prophecy. But two are destined to fall.
