The Starless Sea is by Erin Morgenstern. Another amazing fantasy from the author of The Night Circus. Zachary Ezra Rawlins finds a mysterious book in the library at his college; as he reads the book he discovers one of the stories in the book is about himself. Confused, he sets out to discover who wrote the book and why it contains a story from his childhood. He finds mysterious clues (a bee, a key, and a sword) that lead him to a fancy dress party in New Your City, a secret club, and a doorway which leads to an ancient library beneath the earth. Zachary's story is interspersed with other stories from various books he reads, which also link to Zachary's adventures. Fans of The Night Circus will not be disappointed.
Ratings: 11th grade - 9 out of 10 - P (profanity) - AC (mature thematic content).
