The first book in the All Souls trilogy, introducing us to a woman (who just happens to be a witch) whose research results in the discovery of an ancient manuscript that has been lost for centuries. Now found, the ancient text "has set a fantastical underworld stirring," leading to "a distracting horde of daemons, witches and vampires" descending upon the reading rooms where it was found. Alchemical adventure and magical suspense ensue. Denim-coloured boards w/silver initials to front cover, silver lettering/design to spine, decorated end papers, 579 pages + one page of acknowledgments. Light general wear, w/nothing significant in the way of flaws..
Reviews
On Feb 13 2015, a reader said:
I am always unsure of attempting to read many modern supernatural books these days due to cliches and the whole teen-pop feel. When this book first came out, the cover grabbed my immediate attention and after glancing through it, I knew it was a book I would want to read at some point. I finally got around to reading it and while it may have a few underlying cliches (witch and vampire romance), overall the story is intriguing and unique. It is well-written and has some very interesting descriptive parts laced through it that kept my attention. If you're into this type of genre, witches, vampires, etc. I recommend this book. I truly look forward to reading the other two to this trilogy.
