If you see a Google Drive link instead of source url, means that the file witch you will get after approval is just a summary of original book or the file has been already removed. In this tale of passion and obsession, Diana Bishop, a young scholar and a descendant of witches, discovers a long-lost and enchanted alchemical manuscript, Ashmole , deep in Oxford's Bodleian Library.
Its reappearance summons a fantastical underworld, which she navigates with her leading man, vampire geneticist Matthew Clairmont. Harkness has created a universe to rival those of Anne Rice, Diana Gabaldon, and Elizabeth Kostova, and she adds a scholar's depth to this riveting tale of magic and suspense. Whether it is the first or second time reading, this is a spell binding trilogy. A must read filled with Magic, romance, action and suspense.
I could not pay attention to this at all, it was really boring. I stopped halfway through and purchased another book. On one hand it is smart and clever, using history and science and magic together. On the other hand: I hate the heroine, Diana.
She is a grown woman, who everybody has to take care of, and acts like child. With no thought at all, she agrees to obey a vampire, who suddenly just tells her: you became my wife the moment I said I love you and that includes that you have to obey me.
To me, this is just sad. I love strong female leads, but Diana is not it. Amazing detail for both the narrative and the narrator! Loved the mystery, suspense, romance, horror, and adventure! Not only is Jennifer great with the different accents, but she captures each characters' cadences and variation in syntax perfectly!
