Synopsis

“A page-turner of a fantasy with elements of humor as well as intrigue, swordplay, and librarian-versus-hostile-book combat.” —Booklist

“A fast-paced, engaging adventure.” —Publishers Weekly

“One for the books.” —Kirkus Reviews

From Sarah Prineas, author of the acclaimed Magic Thief series, comes a stunning new tween fantasy where books literally come to life!

The powerful Lost Books at the palace library are infecting the rest with an evil magic, and two unlikely friends must figure out who, or what, is controlling the books and their power. If they can’t, the entire kingdom could be at risk.

Sarah Prineas returns to her classic middle grade roots with this imaginative, fast-paced adventure for book lovers everywhere.


A young librarian with a secret. A prince who can’t read. And a library where the books are fighting back.


  • Books Come to Life: Not all stories stay on the page. In this library, vines can strangle, words can attack, and a book of explosions might just explode.
  • An Unlikely Friendship: Alex knows everything about books. Prince Charlie can’t even read one. Together, they’re the kingdom’s only hope.
  • A Librarian Hero: Forget dusty shelves and quiet reading rooms. Alex is a new kind of librarian—one who needs a sword as much as a library card to survive.
  • High-Stakes Adventure: When the powerful Lost Books escape, their dark magic threatens to unravel the entire kingdom.
