Reseña del libro "The Mindbound Academy. The Voice Was Only the Beginning: A Dark Psychic Academy Romance (en Inglés)"
She's carried a voice in her head for twelve years. She's about to find out why.
Lyra Vale works in a dying bookshop in a dying coastal town, and the only remarkable thing about her life is the entity that lives behind her sternum. It's sardonic. It's protective. And it knows things no hallucination should - like when her boss will have a heart scare, three days before it happens.
When a psychic stranger comes looking for her and she instinctively destroys his mind-reading attempt, Lyra is pulled into the Mindbound Academy - a hidden institution where students bond with consciousness fragments to serve the Council, a shadowy regime that has controlled the world for centuries.
At the Academy, Lyra finds unexpected friendship in Naia, a warm-hearted empath, and dangerous attraction to Kael Draven, her combat handler - a man whose emotional armor hides a devastating secret about his own sister's fate.
But as Lyra's power grows beyond anything the Academy has seen, she discovers the horrifying truth buried in its archives: the system is built on genocide. The Primes - ancient, god-like consciousnesses - were hunted, shattered, and enslaved. Every fragment bonded to every student is a prisoner. Every handler is an unwitting jailer.
And the voice in Lyra's head? It isn't a fragment. It's the last intact Prime.
Now the Director wants it extracted. The Council wants it destroyed. And Lyra must decide: hide what she is and survive in a cage - or integrate fully with the ancient consciousness inside her, become something the world has never seen, and burn the chains to ash.
The Mindbound Academy is a dark, emotionally charged paranormal academy romance with psychic powers, slow-burn tension, and a heroine who refuses to let the world stay broken.
