Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Carolyn's not so different from the other people around her. She likes guacamole and cigarettes and steak. She knows how to use a phone. Clothes are a bit tricky, but everyone says nice things about her outfit with the Christmas sweater over the gold bicycle shorts.After all, she was a normal American herself once. That was a long time ago, of course. Before her parents died. Before she and the others were taken in by the man they called Father.In the years since then, Carolyn hasn't had a chance to get out much. Instead, she and her adopted siblings have been raised according to Father's ancient customs. They've studied the books in his Library and learned some of the secrets of his power. And sometimes, they've wondered if their cruel tutor might secretly be God. Now, Father is missing - perhaps even dead - and the Library that holds his secrets stands unguarded. And with it, control over all of creation. As Carolyn gathers the tools she needs for the battle to come, fierce competitors for this prize align against her, all of them with powers that far exceed her own.But Carolyn has accounted for this. And Carolyn has a plan. The only trouble is that in the war to make a new God, she's forgotten to protect the things that make her human.'A bizarre yet utterly compelling debut.might remind readers of Robert Jackson Bennett's or Neil Gaiman's horror/fantasies.' - Library Journal (starred review)'A spellbinding story of world-altering power and revenge.Hawkins has created a fascinating, unusual world in which ordinary people can learn to wield and he's also written a compelling story about love and revenge that never loses sight of the breathtaking power- human emotions at its heart. A wholly original, engrossing, disturbing, and beautiful book.' - Kirkus Reviews (starred review) A mysterious library contains the secrets to the universe in a visionary fantasy with elements of dark academia.
