Emberglow Falls Academy: The Legacy of Magic
Hidden from the mortal world lies Emberglow Falls Academy, a prestigious school on a secret plane where students learn to command elemental magic. When a newly awakened power leads one student there, she is thrust into a world of fae politics, ancient bloodlines, and classmates whose centuries of magic leave her feeling like an outsider.
But a rare power begins to surface—one not seen in hundreds of years. As she searches for answers with her new friends, long-buried secrets and looming chaos begin to unravel around them.
In a world where passion runs hot, fated mates are common, and polyamorous bonds shape relationships, the journey becomes more than a search for truth—it becomes a test of loyalty, desire, and the power of magic itself.
In a world where passion ignites, fated mates are the norm, and polygamous relationships are the norm, Angela's journey is not just one of magic and discovery but also of intense, spicy connections that challenge her heart and soul.
Due to mature themes, this book is recommended for readers of a mature audience.

Loved it!
Ok, so this was reminiscent of Zodiac Academy, but I still enjoyed it. On a certain level, all "academy" stories have a similar framework; FMC has no idea she’s some type of paranormal, not only that she’s the most powerful being that ever lived, the hottest guys in the school all want her, there’s a jealous mean girl that makes her life miserable, blah, blah, blah. So really, it’s just a matter of how well the author executes this. Can they still find a new twist? I thought this author did.
Emberglow is a fae academy where polyamorous relationships are common. Our FMC, Angela, is dating one of the "heartthrobs," but finds herself mated to one of his friends. They have mating balls at each of the equinoxes and solstices, and mates are revealed at these balls. But everyone is cool with it, and it’s looking like she’s going to end up with all 4 heartthrobs (shocking, right? Lol)
Like most fae stories, there is elemental magic, fae politics, antisocial behavior, dark forces that are coming for the FMC, and her finding out she’s the most powerful royal in a millennia. For some reason, even though there are very similar elements with other academy stories, I still can’t wait for the next book to come out.

I want my time back. 2.5*
2.5* simply because I "read" the whole book. Skimming was a given in some places.
Sooo... Firstly none of these fae, human realm or fae realm have different names. The heroine is called Angela.... I thought at least her appearance would change but no, all we know is that she has brown eyes and is plain looking. Fae are well documented for their glamour, not here.
There is no world build. Nothing is particularly special about the whole lot of them, could simply just be witches. In fact they should be. Come On even their life spans are human !!
The main characters are all supposed to be in there early 20s, yeah no. Under 18 I would probably believe. Still at the age where you just consume drugs when you don't even know what they are or where they came from.
The plot, mates are as simple as buying a new dress and shoving it at the back of the wardrobe..... The relationships are not romantic, just lets have s*x here and there and I sit on his lap to make other girls jealous. Yep... Totally grown up........
I wanted to know if Angela would be a powerhouse. I kept reading thinking any minute now....
I can't put myself through book 2. There is nothing interesting enough for me to latch onto.

At first glance, this novel follows a familiar fantasy formula: a young woman is unexpectedly transported to another world, thrown into a magical academy where she knows no one, and quickly realizes there's no way back home. As she struggles to find her place, she discovers abilities, begins uncovering the truth about her past, and finds herself surrounded by a cast of both allies and enemies—many of whom are, unsurprisingly, exceptionally attractive. So while the action was adult, the vocabulary was much younger within a framework of familiar tropes.
One thing I did notice is that although the characters are technically college-aged, they behave much more like adults. Their relationships, romantic entanglements, expectations surrounding lifelong mates, and the decisions they're forced to make all carry a level of maturity that feels older than the setting might initially suggest.
The characters themselves fit many of the classic fantasy roles—the heroes, the villains, and those whose loyalties remain uncertain—but there are enough surprises along the way to keep things interesting. Not everyone is exactly who they first appear to be, and I appreciated that some of the "good" characters had flaws while some unlikely individuals proved to be surprisingly honourable. Ultimately, the novel embraces the timeless theme of good overcoming evil, but it takes an enjoyable path to get there.
For me, the strongest part of the book was exploring the world alongside the protagonist. The library was one of my favourite settings, serving not just as a place of learning but as the heart of the story's mysteries and the catalyst for her personal growth. I thought that her magical abilities developed far more rapidly, and her ability to handle them effectively was a bit of a stretch. Even though it is weeks and months between some of her magical abilities, she can skillfully use her gifts without a large lead time to learn, make mistakes, and fully explore each new step in her journey.
The different clans were another aspect. Each has its own history, culture, traditions, and magical abilities, and those distinctions make the world feel much more immersive. Rather than existing simply to move the plot forward, the clans give the setting a sense of history and purpose that makes you want to learn more about how this world works. Overall, while the novel draws on many familiar fantasy conventions, fans of magical academies, portal fantasy, found family, and slow-burn magical discovery will likely find plenty to enjoy.

Book Review
Title: Emberglow Falls Academy: Legacy of Magic
Author: Selena Edwards
Book Rating: 3.75 Stars
Genre: Fantasy
The first book in the Emberglow Falls Academy series was a great introduction, and I'm eager to keep reading. I fell in love with the characters, atmosphere, and setting, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me. If you love college-based fantasy, you will definitely want to pick this up.
The Legacy of Magic follows two protagonists. Angela is a human girl who is abruptly transferred to the Fae world after they say she shows signs of magic. Once enrolled in the Emberglow Falls Academy, she soon realizes that she is able to control all four elements, which is something only the powerful Great Fae can do. The second protagonist is Lance, the King's son, who soon takes to Angela and brings her into his group. But as Angela learns about this new magical world, she discovers a hidden secret that involves her, and it will change her life more than all the magic already did.
This story was intriguing, and I was instantly sucked in from the very start. Although elemental magic is nothing new, Selena Edwards made the magic system really interesting and easy to understand. It felt like a cross between Avatar: The Last Airbender and a Brandon Sanderson book.
My only complaint was that the characters reacted weirdly, especially when presented with extraordinary news. This pulled me out a bit, but as the plot progressed and the characters seemed to mature, the story really flew by.
Overall, Emberglow Falls Academy: The Legacy of Magic is an excellent fantasy novel, with a strong magic system, some decent spice, and a plot that kept me highly entertained. I am itching to start the sequel and will hopefully dive in soon.

I absolutely loved Emberglow Falls Academy: The Legacy of Magic by Selena Edwards! If you are a fan of magical academies, hidden legacy tropes, and swoon-worthy reverse-harem romance, this book needs to be on your radar now. The story follows Angela, an ordinary twenty-something human who has spent her whole life believing she is 100% human. Then everything changes when she suddenly starts manifesting magical abilities—something humans aren't supposed to be able to do. Before she knows it, she is sweep away to the hidden Fae realm and enrolled in Emberglow Falls Academy, an intimidating, elite school where powerful Fae bloodlines rule the social hierarchy. What makes this book, so addictive is how it balances the romance with a genuinely gripping plot. As Angela tries to survive the culture shock and navigate the complex, polyamorous fated-mate dynamics with the protective guys in her circle, she also stumbles into a massive mystery. She has to uncover the truth about her own lineage and dig up 500-year-old secrets that could change the history of the academy and the kingdom itself. The world-building is incredibly immersive, blending dark academia vibes with high-stakes Fae politics. The slow-burn discovery of Angela's powers kept me turning the pages, and the chemistry between the characters is absolutely fantastic. 10/10, I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fast-paced romantasy with great character dynamics and an amazing magical setting. I am officially hooked and can't wait to see what happens next! I definitely will be reading the other books in this series!

This book was better than I first thought when I started reading it. I had a little bit of difficulty getting past the young childish reactions and behaviors even though there are warnings of such behavior at the front of the book. I had to remind myself that these are young fae in a college setting in a world that is not supposed to be like the human world. Similar yes, with lots of experimentation and young irresponsible life choices. Once I moved past the petty, high school atmosphere, I was actually able to enjoy the plot of the story!
I had a hard time feeling the mate connections only for the simple fact that it was mentioned they could be accepted or rejected. If they could be so easily rejected, how strong of a mate bond could it really be? There was some spice and it was open door, but pretty low level, maybe 2.5-3 peppers worth.
The plot itself was intriguing. I would have enjoyed more sneaking around to research Angela's ancestry and the part the current royal families played over the volatile whiny tantrums Lisa had. I wanted to just yell at her to STFU so many times.
Kelly surprised me! I was for sure not expecting her to end up behaving how she did. I really hope she is as she seems now because she did grow on me! I feel like there is still potential for someone in the group to be pretending but that could just be my suspicious overactive mind.
I received a free copy to read and willingly give my honest review. Overall I recommend this book and look forward to finding out if my suspicions are correct, if the King gets challenged and who has been attacking their world.

Confused by the mating
I think this was a good idea but the execution could use some work. It did seem to drag on in parts. The author over described movements that could be worded differently or just skipped. I eventually just started skipping sections if there were no quotes as I felt it was too much information that just wasnt moving the story along. I also had an issue with the premise of "mating" in this fantasy world. My understanding of mating with someone for fantasy is that someone is your other half. They complete you sure there can be disagreements but most of all an understanding of the other person. There's a character who gets mated and her mate dislikes half of what she does. Which seems odd why would the fates mate them if theyre not compatible. Also you can mate one person one season then mate another person another season. I get trying to have the MFC mate multiple people. I've read where that happens in other stories but the mates dont mate anyone else. I. This story it is know. That even though they mates mate to our MFC they could also mate to someone else. So it gave me no real sense of connection to them. MMC may mate to MFC then mate to another non essential character so why am I reading about him. This just seems weird.

Emberglow Falls Academy, book one
Fae academy story, set in 2004, with fated mates, magic, hidden heritage and royalty. Angela is a 20 something woman, raised as human who is magically snatched into the fae realm when her magic appears. They are baffled because humans don't normally produce magical powers. At the academy she is found to have four elements and a special fifth element that disappeared 500 years ago. She meets and befriends the royal cohort of the school, becomes the mate of two and the lover of a third. The whole mate concept appears optional in this society. She has two female friends who are both ridiculously immature and who provide much eye rolling drama. As the story builds an entire mystery is revealed about events from five hundred years ago. The writing is technically correct, but it just doesn't flow well. Intimate scenes and plot progression are awkward at best. It isn't terrible, but needs work. YA with unnecessary sex scenes tossed in.

I really wanted to like this book as the premise of it sounds good. But I feel like the execution of it fell flat.
In the world of emberglow academy, the students act like utter children even though they are supposed to be in their 20s/college age. It was extremely strange that the fmc Angela was thrown into the new world with no explanation. There was hardly any world building, so the human plane and the fae plane seem to almost be absolutely the same with the only difference being magic in the fae plane. The character Lisa annoyed the absolute hell out of me. She was so horrible and whiny that it was hard to read the paragraphs with her in them. There were so many moments in this book that were cringe. The way mating bonds were explained made what is usually extra special in fantasy books a complete mockery since they could be mated with multiple people. This book just was not for me.

If you’re into magic academies with a twist, Emberglow Falls Academy: The Legacy of Magic delivers a fun, fast-paced ride. It feels like a blend of Harry Potter and Fourth Wing (minus the dragons), dropping you straight into the mystery alongside Angela, a protagonist who’s just as confused as you are about why she’s suddenly at this academy—and why some students seem determined to take her down.
While it leans into familiar tropes, the story stays engaging thanks to its pacing, intrigue, and evolving character dynamics. Angela’s developing powers and the introduction of poly relationships add layers that keep things interesting and a bit unpredictable.
It hooked me enough to stay up late finishing it, and I’m definitely curious to see where the next book takes things.

Her magic was too easy to come out. The spice heated up too quick, no tension or angst lead up so it didn’t have that excitement to it. Lisa annoyed the heck out of me and got way too many chances. The characters would pour their hearts out pretty easy. I get we need to understand their insecurities and remorse, but people don’t talk like that IRL. I liked the plot overall. I liked the complex web of characters. There wasn’t anything that really hooked me in. The whole book felt like a lead up, full of background info without us really going anywhere except the relationships building (I guess).

Probably author's first book. Couldn't finish, stopped at 10%. No world building at all. When you write about magic and whole different realms, you better be a good writer, otherwise it looks like 13 yo's wattpad fanatic, not an actual book. Maybe she had good idea but the execution is nothing. Don't even know how could I continue after first chapter, where she was kidnapped to fae realm from human world and nothing was explained to her, where even professors excusing themselves as if they had better thing to do than to tell the girl where she even was... like so immature writing, could not stop eye rolling at everyone's behavior 😃😃😃😃

If you like books on magic academies, romance, spice, mystery and friendships this book is for you. It was a fun read. I really enjoyed this book definitely looking into the next two books to solve the mystery as to what happened with Angela's family. I liked reading about Angela discovering her powers all the while building friendships and romantic relationships. It was fun to read about mates and finding your mate or mates at school balls. I liked reading about how unsure she was about the school and slowly building her confidence in her powers, and belonging to that world.

DO NOT READ THIS AI SLOP!
It is pure AI fake slop. Everything about this is terrible I made it to 18% with an absolute struggle. Absolutely terrible and a disgrace to hard working authors. It has copied elements of Zodiac Academy and not done well at all. It had everything I was excited for until I actually started reading it. Honestly give this a very hard pass if you’re thinking about it just don’t.

I've read better fan fiction than this. This had so much promise, but there's zero world building and all the characters come across as the same person, apart from maybe Lisa and that's only because she's clearly unhinged.
September 8, 2026
Fun read
I honestly could have gone without the excessive drama, but do understand the character growth it demonstrates. And Lisa is driving me nuts I really wanna smack that character.

Disappointed with characters
I stopped reading after letting Kelly in and Lisa. I'm all for forgiveness but them? No! No one changes that fast, so I'm out ie as they day, sorry cuz the concept was different and intriguing.

If explaining the school like high school why not just set it in high school?
Honestly this book sucks. Also it doesn’t follow typical fae timelines like 500 years being 20 generations?

I really enjoyed reading this new series. Angela's journey of her 1st year at college started out overwhelming but started to even out halfway thru the book

This series kicked off with magic!
I Loved that the girl came into powers when she did and found herself in a magical world filled with fey being told she belonged at the school. It led to some great friendships, some fun and spice along the way. All to finding out who she is and she does belong. Great opening to this series.

I loved this book, with its fae world, the magic and the different way of handling fated mates. There are a couple of spicy scenes in it (I liked the addition of the volcano). The spicy scenes aren’t super long. You can have more than one mate, and people don’t necessarily start a relationship with their mate. Looking forward to reading book 2 in the series. There’s lots of intrigue, action, magic, mystery and spiciness in the book. The characters are in college, but sometimes act like teenagers, other times more as adults. However that’s logical for college age students, they’re in between those stages. I did get annoyed sometimes by the character of Lisa. But maybe that was the idea behind her character, that you would be annoyed by her.
There are several tropes in this story, but they didn’t bother me. The tropes are FMC having no idea that she’s a powerful magic being, the hottest guy(s) in the school want her (while in her mind she’s just plain), elemental magic, fae politics, jealous mean girl(s) that try to make the life of the FMC harder, and dark forces that are coming for the world as everyone knows it.
I liked that some ‘good’ persons turned out to have flaws, and that some ‘bad’ persons turned out to be more of a ‘good’ person. That gave some interesting twists. I loved exploring and learning about the fae plane alongside the main character Angela. Most of the book is written from her pov, except for a couple of chapters. Angela’s discovering and managing of her skills went fast and sometimes a little too easy to my idea, but this did keep the pace of the story up. Loved the addition of the library and the different clans and their history.
There are several tropes in this story, but they didn’t bother me. The tropes are FMC having no idea that she’s a powerful magic being, the hottest guy(s) in the school want her (while in her mind she’s just plain), elemental magic, fae politics, jealous mean girl(s) that try to make the life of the FMC harder, and dark forces that are coming for the world as everyone knows it.
I liked that some ‘good’ persons turned out to have flaws, and that some ‘bad’ persons turned out to be more of a ‘good’ person. That gave some interesting twists.
