The Starless Sea… enchanting read… an ode to stories and storytelling itself, and the joy of reading" (Martin ChiltonIndependent) "A mystical adventure in an enchanted universe" ( Time) "Enchanting.Myths and fairytales entwine with Zachary's quest to discover his life's purpose. Rather than a traditional fantasy novel, this is an artificial myth in its own right, soldered together from the girders of skyscrapers… the novel’s scope and ambition are undeniable" (Natasha Pulley Guardian) " Erin Morgenstern’s fiction radiates with the excitement of someone discovering a magical world within the pages of a book. Its magic is based in the New York Public Library, in glittering hotels, and the beautiful blatant kitsch of a professional fortune teller’s house. Review " The Starless Sea rejects older stories: it makes its own. You are invited to join Zachary on the starless sea: the home of storytellers, story-lovers and those who will protect our stories at all costs. When the labyrinth is threatened, Zachary must race with Mirabel, and Dorian, a handsome barefoot man with shifting alliances, through its twisting tunnels and crowded ballrooms, searching for the end of his story.
This door leads to a subterranean labyrinth filled with stories, hidden far beneath the surface of the earth. They guide him to a masquerade ball, to a dangerous secret club, and finally through a magical doorway created by the fierce and mysterious Mirabel. Determined to solve the puzzle of the book, Zachary follows the clues he finds on the cover – a bee, a key and a sword. Its pages entrance him with their tales of lovelorn prisoners, lost cities and nameless acolytes, but they also contain something impossible: a recollection from his own childhood. Are you lost or are you exploring? When Zachary Rawlins stumbles across a strange book hidden in his university library it leads him on a quest unlike any other. Description 'Assuredly beautiful' Guardian The magical new novel from the bestselling author of The Night Circus.
