One spy. One dangerous book. One deadly mission. The first in a delightful fantasy mystery series, The Invisible Library is the astounding debut from Genevieve Cogman.
Irene must be at the top of her game or she'll be off the case – permanently . . .
Irene is a professional spy for the mysterious Library, which harvests fiction from different realities. Along with her new assistant Kai, she's posted to an alternative London. Their mission – to retrieve a dangerous book. But lo and behold, when they arrive, it's already been stolen. London's underground factions seem prepared to fight to the very death to find her book.
In this world teeming with supernatural creatures and unpredictable magic, Irene soon finds herself up to her eyebrows in a heady mix of danger, clues and secret societies. And Kai is also hiding secrets of his own. Yet failure is not an option – the nature of reality itself is at stake.
'It's a breath of fresh air' – Guardian
Continue the journey with the second adventurous title in the The Invisible Library series, The Masked City. Genevieve is also the author of the Sunday Times bestselling Scarlet - which reimagines the tale of The Scarlet Pimpernel, but with vampires, mages and magic . . .

Als groot fan van fantasy novels was dit boek voor mij echt weer eens wat anders. Geen standaard middeleeuwse veldslagen met magische wezens en tovenaars. Ik kan het niet anders beschrijven als een mix tussen een detective, fantasy en Sifi. Geschreven met een iconisch Britse schrijfwijze. Het verhaal is wellicht wat voorspelbaar maar desalniettemin gewoon leuk.

Verrassende fantasy niet complex wel fijn anders met goed tempo in t verhaal. Leuk hoofdpersonage, lekker voorgelezen mits je van stemverschillen voor de personages houdt. Al met al heerlijk boek ter ontspanning!

Loved the story with alternative worlds and adventures of the librarian. Being a book lover myself, this was great to listen to

Interessant gegeven, had mooi kunnen zijn, maar die de manier van schrijven vond ik het geen prettig boek.

Leuke fantasy! Kon bijna niet stoppen. Voorlezer is wel erg wisselend tussen de verschillende stemmen van zacht naar hard.
