The very few notes I still took when reading Shadow of Night were these ones: While Shadow of the Night centered around time travelling, the Book of Life is all about family. Not smart but that’s how enthralled I was by this story. That made for more than 50 hours nearly without thinking about jotting down anything helpful for my reviews. Maybe saying that I barely took notes while listening to book 2 and didn’t take any for book 3 of this trilogy? But the real threat to their future has yet to be revealed, and when it is, the search for Ashmole 782 and its missing pages takes on even more urgency At Matthew’s ancestral home, Sept-Tours, they reunite with the beloved cast of characters from A Discovery of Witches-with one significant exception. In The Book of Life, Diana and Matthew time-travel back from Elizabethan London to make a dramatic return to the present-facing new crises and old enemies. The #1 New York Times bestselling series finale and sequel to A Discovery of Witches and Shadow of Nightīringing the magic and suspense of the All Souls Trilogy to a deeply satisfying conclusion, this highly anticipated finale went straight to #1 on the New York Times bestseller list. As the search for Ashmole 782 deepens and Diana seeks out a witch to tutor her in magic, the net of Matthew’s past tightens around them, and they embark on a very different-and vastly more dangerous-journey. Shadow of Night Picking up from A Discovery of Witches’ cliffhanger ending, Shadow of Night 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 Matthew’s old friends, the School of Night.
