ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The #1Ā New York Timesābestselling sequel toĀ A Discovery of Witches,Ā book two of the All Souls Trilogyāāas enchanting, engrossing, and impossible to put down as its predecessorā (Miami Herald)
J. K. Rowling, Stephenie Meyer, Anne Riceāonly a few writers capture the imagination the way that Deborah Harkness has with herĀ New York Timesābestselling All Souls trilogy.Ā A Discovery of Witches introduces reluctant witch Diana Bishop, vampire geneticist Matthew Clairmont, and the battle for a lost, enchanted manuscript known asĀ Ashmole 782.
Picking up fromĀ A Discovery of Witchesā cliffhanger ending,Ā Shadow of NightĀ takes Diana and Matthew on a trip through time to Elizabethan London, where they are plunged into a world of spies, magic, and a coterie of Matthewās old friends, the School of Night. As the search forĀ Ashmole 782Ā deepens and Diana seeks out a witch to tutor her in magic, the net of Matthewās past tightens around them, and they embark on a very differentāand vastly more dangerousājourney.
