This one is a very unique take on books and their authors, set in of all places Hell. Claire is the librarian of one of the most interesting and unique libraries I have come across in literature, The Library of the Unwritten. It’s a neutral place in Hell where all the characters people have ever dreamt up, both in their head and on paper but have never finished, come to live and reside. While most are kept asleep in their books, every once a while a character get’s ancey, wakes up and tries to escape Hell. It is the Claire’s job to keep this from happening. But when one of these character’s awakens and goes to earth in search of his author. What starts as a simple catch and retrieve job for Claire, turns into a big fiasco. Shortly after she arrives on earth they are assailed by angelic hosts that are convinced that she and her posy are in possession of the Devil’s bible and Heaven and the angels are bound and determined to get it no matter what the cost, even if it means a war with Hell.

While I am not finished with this one yet, I am loving so many things about this. The intriguing setting of Hell. And the author’s opinions presented on the afterlife are truly interesting to say the least. The characters inward dialogue and evolution is also something that I am really enjoying. Questions of sin, forgiveness, love, loss and identity are tackled in a thoughtful and sensitive way. IF you like Good Omens you will love this book. Put this on your TBR lists and pre order now. Out October 1! Thank you to the publisher ACE books and Berkley Books/ Penguin Random House for the ARC for review!
