Deborah Harkness, author of the All Souls Trilogy, reads at Malaprop’s on May 27

Author Deborah Harkness presents The Book of Life, the final installment in her All Souls Trilogy, at Malaprop’s. The tickets event is scheduled for Wednesday, May 27.

Press release from Malaprop’s:

We are thrilled and delighted to welcome Deborah Harkness to Malaprop’s! We’re celebrating the paperback release of The Book of Life, the third book of the All Souls Trilogy.

This is a ticketed event.  Tickets are $10 and include a $10 coupon toward the purchase of the paperback of The Book of Life from Malaprop’s.

The Book of Life is the finale of the #1 New York Times bestselling series that began with A Discovery of Witches and continued with Shadow of Night!  Bringing the series’ magic and suspense to a deeply satisfying conclusion, The Book of Life follows Diana and Matthew as they time-travel back from Elizabethan London to make a dramatic return to the present – facing new crises and old enemies.

“History, science, and the unpredictable actions of paranormal characters with hidden agendas all swirl together to create a not-to-be-missed finale to a stellar paranormal series. […] Harkness delves more deeply into the political machinations of her world in this outing, weaving in a meaningful message about how ignorance, fear, and misinformation can drive a culture, with ramifications for generations to come.”
 – Library Journal

“Harkness herself proves to be quite the alchemist as she combines elements of magic, history, romance, and science, transforming them into a compelling journey through time, space, and geography. By bridging the gaps between Harry Potter, Twilight, and Outlander fans, Harkness artfully appeals to a broad range of fantasy lovers.”
 – Booklist

“A bewitching end to the All Souls Trilogy…Harkness’ ambitious melding of scientific and historical detail is inventive and brings surprising depth to…real-life societal scourges.”
– Los Angeles Times
