The Secret Chapter by Genevieve Cogman
The sixth instalment of this fantastical adventure series. A deal with a Fae leads Irene and Kai to an art heist in Vienna, with a ramshackle team of dragons and Fae all for the sake of a rare book and its hidden history.
The ensuing shenanigans are wittily told, with some great one-liners and comic set pieces, and the resourceful Irene is a delightful protagonistThis is light-hearted fantasy at its page-turning best -- Guardian
I absolutely loved this . . . flavoured with truly unique mythology and a dash of the eldritch. Such clever, creepy, elaborate worldbuilding and snarky, sexy-smart characters! -- N. K. Jemisin on The Invisible Library (Book One)
Irene is a great heroine: fiery, resourceful and no one’s fool, she has a wonderfully droll sense of humour – much like the novel itself -- Guardian on The Masked City (Book Two)
Brilliant and so much fun. Skullduggery, Librarians, and dragons – Cogman keeps upping the ante on this delightful series! -- Charles Stross on The Burning Page (Book Three)
Reminiscent of the works of Diana Wynne Jones and Neil Gaiman . . a true treat to read -- Publishers Weekly on The Invisible Library (Book One)
Cogman fills a captivating story with animated characters and propels the narrative at a cracking pace, planting perfectly timed plot twists and reversals of fortune along the way -- Guardian on The Mortal Word (Book Five)

She is also the author of The Masked City, The Burning Page, The Lost Plot, and The Mortal Word, all in the Invisible Library series. Genevieve Cogman’s hobbies include patchwork, beading, knitting and gaming, and she lives in the north of England.
