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.

Once, there were four worlds, nestled like pages in a book, each pulsing with fantastical power and connected by a single city: London. Until the magic grew too fast and forced the worlds to seal the doors between them in a desperate gamble to protect their own. The few magicians who could still open the doors grew more rare as time passed and now, only three Antari are known in recent memory—Kell Maresh of Red London, Delilah Bard of Grey London, and Holland Vosijk, of White London.

Myra has a gift many would kidnap, blackmail, and worse to control: she’s a portrait artist whose paintings alter people’s bodies. Guarding that secret is the only way to keep her younger sister safe now that their parents are gone. But one frigid night, the governor’s wife discovers the truth and threatens to expose Myra if she does not complete a special portrait that would resurrect the governor's dead son.

"The Near Witch" is only an old story told to frighten children. If the wind calls at night, you must not listen. The wind is lonely and always looking for company.

There's Grey London, dirty and boring, without any magic, ruled by a mad King George. Then there's Red London, where life and magic are revered, and the Maresh Dynasty presides over a flourishing empire. There's White London, ruled by whoever has murdered their way to the throne. And once upon a time, there was Black London...but no one speaks of that now.

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.

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!

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.
