Part of the The Library of Ever series
A magical library under sinister control. Can knowledge triumph over darkness?
Lenora returns to the magical Library, now under sinister new management. As its corridors grow oppressive, she joins a secret resistance to free knowledge from the shadows. With allies, she explores an ancient city and encounters mathematical beings beyond imagination. Facing the mysterious Board, Lenora must prove that knowledge is more powerful than fear. Will she succeed in restoring light to the Library?
The follow-up to our acclaimed middle-grade fantasy The Library of Ever features a dangerous takeover of the magical Library as our heroine fights to make knowledge free for everyone.
Lenora returns to the magical Library—which holds every book ever known on its shelves. But she discovers the Library is under new management, its incredible rooms and corridors turned sinister and oppressive.
Lenora quickly connects with a secret resistance that’s trying to free knowledge from the darkness threatening it. Her new friends introduce her to an ancient lost city, hang-gliding, and mathematical beings larger than the universe itself.
In its starred review for The Library of Ever, Kirkus called it “unusually clever,” BCCB named it “utterly enchanting,” and Booklist said it’s “for every person who has ever believed that libraries are magic.” Now Lenora returns to fight to prove that knowledge is always more powerful than ignorance and fear.
