Ink and Bone

The first duty of the librarian is to protect and defend books. This sometimes requires dying for books, and sometimes causing others to die. In her new series that will take your breath away, Rachel Caine rewrites history in an atmosphere where the Great Library of Alexandria has stood the test of time. Ruthless and limitless in power, the Great Library now controls all cities and manages the flow of information to be shared with people. While important works of history can reach people instantly thanks to alchemy, it is strictly forbidden to own books personally. Although Jess Brightwell believes in the importance of the Library, most of her knowledge comes from illegal books her family has obtained on the black market. And as a result of the training she receives at the Library, where her father sent her as an agent, Jess's loyalty is questioned. When her friend creates a device that will change the world and unknowingly commits the greatest crime of all, Jess will realize that those who run the Great Library value knowledge more than human life. And soon both the rebels and the books will be burned… “A magical new series that will have readers begging for more.” -New York Times Bestselling Author Deborah Harkness - “Every moment is a breathless adventure. "The first novel of the Great Library brings together the excitement of the Hunger Games series and the psychological elements of the Harry Potter books." -Booklist-
