From the New York Times bestselling author of The Night Circus, a timeless love story set in a secret underground world—a place of pirates, painters, lovers, liars, and ships that sail upon a starless sea.

Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues—a bee, a key, and a sword—that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth. What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians—it is a place of lost cities and seas, lovers who pass notes under doors and across time, and of stories whispered by the dead. Zachary learns of those who have sacrificed much to protect this realm, relinquishing their sight and their tongues to preserve this archive, and also of those who are intent on its destruction. Together with Mirabel, a fierce, pink-haired protector of the place, and Dorian, a handsome, barefoot man with shifting alliances, Zachary travels the twisting tunnels, darkened stairwells, crowded ballrooms, and sweetly soaked shores of this magical world, discovering his purpose—in both the mysterious book and in his own life.

Super dreamy plot and audio narration, loved the soothing quality of the full cast. I think this is my new favourite book. I cried twice and I am not a crier

Perfect for bedtime listening

The short version of how I feel about this book, because I can't cover it all, is that it made me laugh. It made me cry in the best ways, and it made my heart yearn for somewhere I cannot truly go, but I can visit it whenever I wish through this book. This book is fantasy, love and adventure and everything in between. Truly a jewel in literature!

Please read this!

Storyline pulls you in but it's sometimes hard to follow due to the switching narratives and choppy timelines. but definitely a great fantasy read

Intriguing storyline
