Beskrivelse
Eighteen-year-old Anik works in India's magical Library, where ancient books come to life and whisper their secrets. It's a dangerous job, since Anik possesses hidden magic forbidden to his caste. If Anik's magic is discovered, a witch known as the Dayan will remove his powers-and his soul, a fate that soon befalls his master, the Librarian.
Though horrified by this injustice, Anik accepts the position of Librarian in his master's stead, working for the ruthless maharaja who owns the Library. For the first time, he meets the maharaja's twins, Nyan and Ishana. They are different as night and day. Nyan is quiet and mysterious; Ishana bold and provocative. Gifted in the magical arts, the twins intend to participate in the Night of Wonders, competing with thousands of enchanters from all across India. To reach the competition, Anik must accompany the Library hundreds of miles through a haunted jungle full of unseen threats. He knows the danger of drawing attention to himself, but the more time he spends with Ishana, the more he falls in love with her.
Forbidden romance becomes the least of Anik's problems when a dark presence arises in their midst; a creature hated and feared among the enchanters. As the Night of Wonders turns to a night of terrors, the fate of the Library itself hangs in the balance...
