Sorcery of Thorns

An apprentice at a magical library in Austermeer must confront her deepest beliefs when sabotage releases a dangerous grimoire and implicates her in the crime. Raised among grimoires—magical books that can transform into monsters if provoked—Elisabeth has always accepted that all sorcerers are evil. With no allies, Elisabeth turns to Nathaniel Thorn, a sorcerer and her sworn enemy, and his mysterious demonic servant. Together they uncover a centuries-old conspiracy that threatens to destroy the Great Libraries and the world. As their alliance deepens, Elisabeth begins to question everything she has been taught about sorcerers, the libraries, and herself. She discovers she possesses an unexpected power and a future she never imagined possible.
