The Book of Life

About The Book of Life

For readers who have followed Diana and Matthew across two books and want their investment honored with a conclusion that resolves the mystery of Ashmole 782 and the fate of the creature world. Diana and Matthew return to present-day Oxford to face the Congregation, their enemies, and the full weight of Diana's extraordinary power. Deborah Harkness brings together the historical scope of the trilogy — spanning Elizabethan London to the American colonies — in a finale that is warm, propulsive, and deeply satisfying. Best read only after Shadow of Night.
