In a realm where ancient magic hides secrets darker than war, the Academy—once a sanctuary—is now a battleground for power and survival. The Devouring lurks unseen, a monstrous infection gnawing at the heart of everything.
Ursula, the fierce Senior Master, will become bait to hunt the beast—at any cost. But when loyalties fracture and shadows deepen, can hope survive the poison spreading among the chosen?
From the breakout author of The Prophecy comes The Catalyst, a psychological fantasy thriller where political intrigue, buried betrayals, and slow-burning desire collide amid a looming apocalypse. Fans of Naomi Novik's Scholomance and Rebecca Yarros' Fourth Wing will find themselves drawn into a dark, immersive world where the line between savior and sinner blurs—and no one is safe.

About the Author
Michelle Niederer
Dorothy Michelle Niederer is a creator of worlds—both the ones we escape into and the ones we build inside ourselves. A lifelong storyteller, she is the author of the Enchanted Changes Academy saga, a mythic, emotionally rich fantasy series blending ancient magic, modern science, and the complicated lives of warriors, wizards, and weary mortals trying to become something more.
Her work is known for its heart: soaring magic, flawed heroes, impossible choices, and the belief that transformation—whether in a character or a reader—always comes at a cost, but is always worth it.View all Audiobooks by Michelle Niederer
