NOTE: Both Forgotten Space and Forgotten Starship, which are listed under Phase Two, can also serve as an introduction to the Universe, as it features its own set of new characters. But if you’re already reading the other books, I recommend not jumping ahead. In their English-language editions, the books were greatly helped by early championing from Stephen King, usefully himself a populist novelist notably interested in meta-fiction, with many of his books involving writers tormented by their readers, characters or pseudonyms. And in the UK in particular, The Shadow of the Wind seems to have arrived at an opportune time. While the sought-after book that speaks secret volumes is a long-standing literary device (including in The Name of the Rose by Umberto Eco, a clear influence on Ruiz Zafón), it’s striking how many of his contemporaries also wrote about secret or forbidden libraries. When it was published in English, suppressed knowledge was central to two of the biggest hits of that year: Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke and The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. And the two dominant literary sequences of the period – Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels and JK Rowling’s Harry Potter books – both feature significant sinister archives: the Unseen University of Ankh-Morpork and the roped-off Dark Arts section of the Hogwarts school library. By 2007, when Markus Zusak’s The Book Thief itself became another global hit, books within books had become a hugely lucrative publishing sub-genre. Exactly – it’s things like that all the way through. One after the next. What a life. He thought to himself, ‘Oh, I could be a writer, but – you know what? – I’ll go to America and see what I can do there.’ Auch wenn es einige langgezogene Szenen in dem Buch gab, überwog der Unterhaltungswert. Die Jane Austen-Erinnerung ist übrigens gewollt. Die Autorin wollte zum 200. Todestag der berühmten Autorin eine Adaption der Figuren und Motive aus deren Büchern zaubern und greift deshalb die Romane auf. Any issues with the book list you are seeing? Or is there an author or series we don’t have? Let me know!

The Library of Congress (LOC) is the world's largest library and hosts a vast digital collection today. An online book search through its catalog of 167 million items---including books, serials, manuscripts, maps, music, recordings, images, and electronic resources---shouldn't take too long.There’s a very famous episode, which you can see on YouTube, in which he goes to Ringwood Market. It must be the mid-1970s and there’s an old woman who, every week, brings three pats of butter to Ringwood Market, and she sells her pats of butter, and then goes home. That’s in the centre of Ringwood. Now it’s probably got a McDonald’s and an HMV and a Waterstones, right there in the spot she once was. Let’s talk about Caroline Slade’s book, Sterile Sun, published in 1936. I’d never heard of this and it sounds utterly fascinating.

And because we’re talking about books that you’ll often come to second-hand, the same goes for the material itself: you know you’re reading something that someone else has read. You don’t know how many hands it’s passed through. It’s that connection to times gone by; I like the idea that something that someone produced 20, 30, 50, 100 years ago still resonates with someone today.

I give this book 4 out of 5 Magical Stars! I really enjoyed this book! First off, the cover is absolutely GORGEOUS! This was slow at first but once I got into it, I couldn’t get enough of its magic! It sounds like the sort of thing that would go down well with fans of the present strand of nature writing – there’s a Robert Macfarlane-ish twinge. The latest book in the Lincoln Lawyer series comes out this month. This will be the 7th book in that series, and the 41st book in the Bosch Universe. Harry Bosch also plays a big part in this book. The plot was very unique. It was about a girl who found a book. And whatever you wrote in the book came true. I know, I know, that does sound very stereotypical. But, that's not even the best part. The author brings in so many more elements such as fairies, fauns, and weaves it into a very intriguing mystery.
