    Now, picking up from A Discovery of Witches' cliff-hanger ending, Shadow of Night plunges Diana Bishop and Matthew Clairmont into Elizabethan London, a world of spies, subterfuge, and a coterie of Matthew's old friends, the mysterious School of Night that includes Christopher Marlowe and Walter Raleigh. Here, Diana must locate a witch to tutor her in magic, Matthew is forced to confront a past he thought he had put to rest, and the mystery of Ashmole 782 deepens. Deborah Harkness has crafted a gripping journey through a world of alchemy, time travel, and magical discoveries.

    Hallie says: "Even better than A Discovery of Witches"
    "Great story Line but a little bit too slow for me"

    If you could sum up Shadow of Night in three words, what would they be?

    Great story Line but a little bit too slow for me


    What other book might you compare Shadow of Night to and why?

    Buffy maybe (have only seen bits and pieces of that show...)


    What does Jennifer Ikeda bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    the accents of the characters.

    Deep in the stacks of Oxford's Bodleian Library, young scholar Diana Bishop unwittingly calls up a bewitched alchemical manuscript in the course of her research. Descended from an old and distinguished line of witches, Diana wants nothing to do with sorcery; so after a furtive glance and a few notes, she banishes the book to the stacks. But her discovery sets a fantastical underworld stirring, and a horde of daemons, witches, and vampires soon descends upon the library.

    Barbara says: "A feast for the mind and imagination"
    "Great story Line but not enough action."

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    Yes but just be aware that it rambles a lot I like more action


    What did you like best about this story?

    The story line itself is awesome! It's mostly unpredictable which I love.

    Geoff is in the city, living the gay life to the hilt, when his father's death convinces him to return to the family farm. Discovering a young Amish man asleep in his barn, Geoff learns that Eli is spending a year away from the community before accepting baptism into the church. Despite their mutual attraction, Geoff is determined not to become involved with him, but Eli has discovered that Geoff shares his feelings and begins to court him, neatly capturing first Geoff's attention and then his heart.

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    I am a sucker (no pun intended) for sappy love stories and this is one that you can get emotional about. Listened to it 3 times so far in almost two years!


    What does R. Kirstein bring to the story that you wouldn???t experience if you just read the book?

    I see the story better when I listen as opposed to reading it myself.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    I laughed and cried! (boy did I cry)... (Told you I was a sap)
