THE NO.1 SUNDAY TIMES AND NEW YORK TIMES HARDBACK BESTSELLER
Fall deeper under the spell of Diana and Matthew in this phenomenal third instalment of their epic tale, following A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES and SHADOW OF NIGHT.
_____________
A world of witches, daemons and vampires.
A manuscript which holds the secrets of their past and the key to their future.
Diana and Matthew - the forbidden love at the heart of it.
After travelling through time in SHADOW OF NIGHT, the second book in Deborah Harkness's enchanting series, historian and witch Diana Bishop and vampire scientist Matthew Clairmont return to the present to face new crises and old enemies.
At Matthew's ancestral home in France they reunite with their families - with one heart-breaking exception. But the real threat to their future is yet to be revealed, and when it is, the search for the elusive manuscript Ashmole 782 and its missing pages takes on a terrifying urgency.
Using ancient knowledge and modern science, from the palaces of Venice and beyond, Diana and Matthew will finally learn what the witches discovered so many centuries ago.

What made this series all the more brilliant to listen to was the fantastic narrator - her voice was excellent and her subtle changes in tone, her broad ability for accents and the feeling she put behind every single sentence was incredible and very well done!!
A wonderful conclusion!!
