Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness
The #1 New York Times bestselling second installment in the All Souls series, from the author of The Discovery of Witches and The Black Bird Oracle.Look for the hit series "A Discovery of Witches," now streaming on AMC+, Sundance Now, and Shudder!
Picking up from A Discovery of Witches' cliffhanger ending, Shadow of Night takes reluctant witch Diana Bishop and vampire geneticist Matthew Clairmont on a trip through time to Elizabethan London, where they are plunged into a world of spies, magic, and a coterie of Matthew's old friends, the School of Night. As the search for Ashmole 782--the lost and enchanted manuscript whose mystery first pulled Diana and Matthew into one another's orbit--deepens and Diana seeks out a witch to tutor her in magic, the net of Matthew's past tightens around them. Together they find they must embark on a very different--and vastly more dangerous--journey.
"A captivating and romantic ripping yarn,"* Shadow of Night confirms Deborah Harkness as a master storyteller, able to cast an "addictive tale of magic, mayhem and two lovers"(Chicago Tribune).
Deborah Harkness specializes in the history of science and medicine as a scholar and writer. Fulbright, Guggenheim, and National Humanities Center fellowships are among the honors she has received. Her most recent scholarly publication is The Jewel House: Elizabethan London and the Scientific Revolution, which she is currently a professor of history at the University of Southern California. It's her debut novel, and it's a good one.
