Mark Lawrence

The Book That Held Her Heart (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Two people once connected by a vast and mysterious library are now separated and must overcome time and distance to reunite and bring peace to their worlds… The fate of an infinite library hangs on one book, a book that holds the power to break the unbreakable. In the face of such forces, fragile things like hearts, family, and the world seem certain to fail. The people most vital to Livira are scattered across time and space, lost, divided into factions, in mortal peril. Somehow, she must bring them together and resolve the unresolvable argument that fuels the library's war. The bond between Livira and Evar has stretched and stretched again. Can it hold at the end, when things fall apart? Can it bring them together against impossible odds? This is the last chapter, the final page. The end threatens and no one, not characters, readers, or even the author, will emerge unscathed.

Autorenporträt

Mark Lawrence was born in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, to British parents but moved to the UK at the age of one. After earning a PhD in mathematics at Imperial College London, he went back to the US to work on a variety of research projects, including the "Star Wars" missile-defense program. Since returning to the UK, he has worked mainly on image processing and decision/reasoning theory. He never had any ambition to be a writer, so he was very surprised when a half-hearted attempt to find an agent turned into a global publishing deal overnight. His first trilogy, The Broken Empire, has been universally acclaimed as a groundbreaking work of fantasy, and both Emperor of Thorns and The Liar's Key have won the David Gemmell Legend Award for best fantasy novel. Mark is married, with four children, and lives in Bristol.

Rezensionen

Praise for Mark Lawrence

'An excellent writer'

George R.R. Martin, #1 SUNDAY and NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of GAME OF THRONES

'Dark and relentless...A two in the morning page turner. Jaw-dropping'

Robin Hobb, the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of THE ASSASSIN'S APPRENTICE

'Excellent - on par with George R.R. Martin'

Conn Iggulden, author of GENGHIS

'The Library Trilogy is one of the most profound and wholly original works of fiction that I've read in the past two decades. The Library Trilogy should place Mark Lawrence's name in the same breath as other twenty-first century masters of speculative fiction'

John Mauro

'Mark Lawrence gets better with every book. It has a drive to it, a pulse,a gearshift that kicks higher and higher.'

Fantasy Book Review

'This tale of knowledge and its cost flies by thanks to the gripping mystery and beautiful worldbuilding...readers will be desperate for more.'

Publishers Weekly

'Lawrence works with many threads here, but none feels misused or insufficiently explored. Rather, the author unspools them masterfully, leaving behind a tightly woven tapestry that readers will ache to see finished even if they can predict one or two of the tale's myriad twists and turns. Gripping, earnest, and impeccably plotted.'
