Shadow of Night

LoveReading Says

Have you ever fallen irrefutably in love, been transported to another existence and then felt thoroughly dazed when you've turned the last page and realised with a wrench you're back in the real world…oh yes, this is most definitely one of those books! Harkness (a Historian) has the rare ability to blend reality, history and fantasy into one, as the ‘All Souls’ trilogy continues in this exquisitely written follow-up to ‘A Discovery of Witches’. Diana and Matthew, their love forbidden, travel back in time to sixteen century England and Europe hoping to learn more about Diana’s gifts and the Book of Mysteries. The inclusion of historical figures such as a canny sometimes petulant Elizabeth I and a young forger named Shakespeare helps you lose yourself in the wondrous depths of this world. Witches, vampires and daemons have never felt so real. The last in the trilogy, ‘The Book of Life’ really can not come quickly enough, where’s a Timewalker when you need one? ~ Liz Robinson
