Reviews
"Harkness exudes her own style of magic in making the world of late 16th century England come alive. . . . Enchanting, engrossing and as impossible to put down as its predecessor, "Shadow of Night" is a perfect blend of fantasy, history and romance. Its single greatest flaw is, after almost 600 pages, it's over. If you've already read and enjoyed "A Discovery of Witches", picking up "Shadow of Night" ;is an absolute requirement. Otherwise, pick up both, and consider your summer reading list complete.- Miami Herald", "The joy that Harkness, herself a historian, takes in visiting the past is evident on every page. . . . A great spell, the one that can enchant a reader and make a 600-page book fly through her fingertips, is cast. . . . Its enduring rewards are plenty." - Entertainment Weekly", "Fans of Harknesss' 2011 debut "A Discovery of Witches" will be delighted. . . . Harkness delivers enough romance and excitement to keep the pages turning. Readers will devour it." People", "Deborah Harkness takes us places we've never been before. . . ."Shadow of Night" isn't just about wonderfully detailed descriptions of England in 1591, it's about "being" there. Readers time-travel as precisely and precariously as Diana and Matthew do. . "Shadow" ends as "Discovery" did with promises of more to come. Lucky for us - Today", "Rich, period fun, particularly delightful in its witty characterization of historical immortals . "Shadow" ramps up the supernatural suspense. - New York Daily News", This novel is as much a love story about a bygone era as it is about Matthew and Diana. It overflows with a colorful cast of characters, many of whom Harkness has plucked straight from the history books, and Harkness renders the late 1500s in exquisite detail. . . . The writing is so rich, the characters so compelling . . . and best of all, Harkness manages to execute with aplomb the act of answering old questions while posing new ones that will intensify anticipation for the final installment. Readers who have been counting down the days, take heart: The wait was most assuredly worth it. - BookPage,   Praise for Shadow of Night "A captivating and romantic ripping yarn." -E. L. James, "Books of the Year 2012: Authors Choose Their Favourites," The Guardian "The joy that Harkness, herself a historian, takes in visiting the past is evident on every page. . . .

Synopsis
The #1 New York Times -bestselling sequel to A Discovery of Witches, book two of the All Souls Trilogy--"as enchanting, engrossing, and impossible to put down as its predecessor" ( Miami Herald ). Look for the hit TV series "A Discovery of Witches" airing Sundays on AMC and BBC America, and streaming on Sundance Now and Shudder. Deborah Harkness exploded onto the literary scene with her debut novel, A Discovery of Witches , Book One of the magical All Souls Trilogy and an international publishing phenomenon. The novel introduced Diana Bishop, Oxford scholar and reluctant witch, and the handsome geneticist and vampire Matthew Clairmont; together they found themselves at the center of a supernatural battle over an enchanted manuscript known as Ashmole 782. Now, picking up from A Discovery of Witches' cliffhanger ending, Shadow of Night plunges Diana and Matthew into Elizabethan London, a world of spies, subterfuge, and a coterie of Matthew's old friends, the mysterious School of Night that includes Christopher Marlowe and Walter Raleigh. Here, Diana must locate a witch to tutor her in magic, Matthew is forced to confront a past he thought he had put to rest, and the mystery of Ashmole 782 deepens. Deborah Harkness has crafted a gripping journey through a world of alchemy, time travel, and magical discoveries, delivering one of the most hotly anticipated novels of the season., 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 ).
