Absolutely the most incredible novel I have read in years, bar none. The characters are multifaceted, richly developed and flawlessly interwoven.
Oh, i really can't connect with this book. at this point i can't bring myself to like the characters.
Wow, I can't begin to say how much I loved this book. When I first heard of it, I thought it sounded like my kind of story and I wasn't in the least bit disappointed when I finally picked it up.
About Deborah Harkness
Bestselling novelist Deborah Harkness is also a professor at the University of Southern California. A prize-winning historian, she specializes in the history of science and Europe in the fifteenth through the seventeenth centuries. She has been studying history—particularly the history of science, magic, and alchemy--for more than twenty-five years, so it’s safe to say she knows her way around a library card catalog or the computerized equivalent. Her career in fiction began at an airport bookshop in September of 2008 when she noticed the shelves were lined with supernatural fiction and asked herself “If there really are witches and vampires, what do they do for a living and why don’t I know any of them?” Her debut novel, A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES, was her answer to that question. The first book in the All Souls series, A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES sold more than a million copies in the United States, also appearing in thirty-eight foreign editions, and was adapted by Sky into a television show of the same name. Deborah continued to tell the story of the Bishop and De Clermont families in SHADOW OF NIGHT, THE BOOK OF LIFE, and most recently, TIME’S CONVERT. She is currently at work on Book #5 of the All Souls Series. For updates, including a tasting menu of the books, music, people, and places which inspire and sustain her in the classroom and at her writing desk, you can subscribe to her monthly newsletter “The Blast” on her website: www.deborahharkness.com....
