À propos de cet audio

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

A KIRKUS BEST BOOK

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER

A NATIONAL INDIE BESTSELLER

“A bone-chilling standalone . . . which fuses Shirley Jackson’s gothic horror sensibilities with the warmth and dark whimsy of Neil Gaiman.”Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Gripping worldbuilding, well-rounded characters, and fantastic horror.”Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“Unsettling and intriguing.”Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)

Everything casts a shadow. Even the world we live in. And as with every shadow, there is a place where it must touch. A seam, where the shadow meets its source.

#1 New York Times–bestselling author V. E. Schwab weaves a dark and original tale about the place where the world meets its shadow, and the young woman beckoned by both sides. The Secret Garden meets Crimson Peak in this stand-alone novel perfect for readers and listeners of Holly Black and Neil Gaiman.

Olivia Prior has grown up in Merilance School for Girls, and all she has of her past is her mother’s journal—which seems to unravel into madness. Then, a letter invites Olivia to come home to Gallant. Yet when Olivia arrives, no one is expecting her. But Olivia is not about to leave the first place that feels like home; it doesn’t matter if her cousin Matthew is hostile, or if she sees half-formed ghouls haunting the hallways.

Olivia knows that Gallant is hiding secrets, and she is determined to uncover them. When she crosses a ruined wall at just the right moment, Olivia finds herself in a place that is Gallant—but not. The manor is crumbling, the ghouls are solid, and a mysterious figure rules over all. Now Olivia sees what has unraveled generations of her family, and where her father may have come from.

Olivia has always wanted to belong somewhere, but will she take her place as a Prior, protecting our world against the Master of the House? Or will she take her place beside him?

New York Times–bestselling author V. E. Schwab crafts a vivid and lush novel that grapples with the demons that are often locked behind closed doors. An eerie, stand-alone saga about life, death, and the young woman beckoned by both. Readers of Neil Gaiman, Holly Black, Melissa Albert, and Garth Nix will quickly lose themselves in this novel with crossover appeal for all ages.

Wonderful audiobook

Really recommend getting your hands on a physical copy, from the library or elsewhere to have the full experience with the drawings if you can. When things are crossed off in the novel there is the sound of them being crossed out in the audiobook which was a lovely addition.
Adored it, listened to it over months to make it last as long as possible because I didn’t want it to end.

Do not go into this for action there is little that happens it is mostly the story of a girl named Olivia and her origins, her finding her family and uncovering who she is. This is very much character driven and atmospheric, not a read for everyone.

Overall a wonderful audiobook.

Oof.

Goes nowhere, quite repetitive and I don’t care about the characters, no really defining to them. The “reader” isn’t my favourite especially for a female protagonist.

Fascinating story

I dove into this book without any idea of what it was. I was gladly surprised. I love the author style so I wasn’t to concerned. I discovered Gallant the same way Olivia did and I loved it.

Ideal for « hunted house » style lovers. It’s not a cookie cutter tho. I think you will love the twists and turns on this one.

Really Great

I thought this was one of Schwab’s best books in a few years. Good pacing, plot, and I loved the characters. Felt a bit like Locke & Key, so if you enjoyed that comic/show, you’ll enjoy this!

A great book and incredible performance

I loved the slight auditory details and the performance of the book. Overall Story was 3/5 for me but the artist really came through.

Lacking depth.

I was very much looking forward to the next VE Schwab read, but I found this a little simple, and frankly a little boring. The character development and story left me feeling slightly unsatisfied. I’ll wait for the next one, and hopefully will enjoy that even more.
