The Starless Sea
Far below the surface, a lost library waits on the shores of the Starless Sea.The spellbinding Sunday Times bestseller. THE TIKTOK SENSATION When Zachary Rawlins discovers a mysterious book in his university library, he is unsettled to find a story from his own childhood written inside it. The book leads him to a masquerade ball, a secretive collectors' society and, at last, to a vast underground harbour filled with books, doors, myths and lost stories. Beneath the surface of the world lies the Harbor on the Starless Sea, a place of hidden libraries, painted doors, lovers divided by time and stories that rewrite themselves across centuries. But the Harbor is fragile, and Zachary's search for answers becomes part of a much older struggle over who may enter, who may preserve stories and who may control them. The Starless Sea is a lyrical fantasy novel about books, hidden worlds, fate, love and the power of storytelling. Dreamlike, romantic and intricate, it is a magical read for anyone drawn to libraries, secret doors and stories within stories.

The Starless Sea
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the bestselling author of The Night Circus, a timeless love story set in a secret underground world—a place of pirates, painters, lovers, liars, and ships that sail upon a starless sea.<BR><BR>"[A] gorgeously written epic love story, filled with magic and mystery." —Popsugar<BR><BR>Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. <BR><BR>Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues—a bee, a key, and a sword—that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth. What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians—it is a place of lost cities and seas, lovers who pass notes under doors and across time, and of stories whispered by the dead. Zachary learns of those who have sacrificed much to protect this realm, relinquishing their sight and their tongues to preserve this archive, and also of those who are intent on its destruction. <BR><BR>Together with Mirabel, a fierce, pink-haired protector of the place, and Dorian, a handsome, barefoot man with shifting alliances, Zachary travels the twisting tunnels, darkened stairwells, crowded ballrooms, and sweetly soaked shores of this magical world, discovering his purpose—in both the mysterious book and in his own life.<BR>
