A New York Times bestseller!
 
“A bewitching gem...I absolutely loved every moment of this story.” —Stephanie Garber, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Caraval series
“If you loved the Hogwarts Library…you’ll be right at home at Summershall.” —Katherine Arden, New York Times bestselling author of The Bear and the Nightingale
 
From the New York Times bestselling author of An Enchantment of Ravens comes an “enthralling adventure” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) about an apprentice at a magical library who must battle a powerful sorcerer to save her kingdom.
 
All sorcerers are evil. Elisabeth has known that as long as she has known anything. Raised as a foundling in one of Austermeer’s Great Libraries, Elisabeth has grown up among the tools of sorcery—magical grimoires that whisper on shelves and rattle beneath iron chains. If provoked, they transform into grotesque monsters of ink and leather.
 
Then an act of sabotage releases the library’s most dangerous grimoire, and Elisabeth is implicated in the crime. With no one to turn to but her sworn enemy, the sorcerer Nathaniel Thorn, and his mysterious demonic servant, she finds herself entangled in a centuries-old conspiracy. Not only could the Great Libraries go up in flames, but the world along with them.
 
As her alliance with Nathaniel grows stronger, Elisabeth starts to question everything she’s been taught—about sorcerers, about the libraries she loves, even about herself. For Elisabeth has a power she has never guessed, and a future she could never have imagined.

“一顆迷人的寶石……我非常喜歡這個故事裡的每一刻。”--斯蒂芬妮•加伯,紐時第一暢銷書《魔幻卡拉瓦》系列作者
“如果你喜歡霍格華茲圖書館……你在「夏宮」會有賓至如歸的感受。”--凱瑟琳•雅頓,紐時暢銷書《熊與夜鶯》作者
 
來自紐時暢銷書《烏鴉幻咒》的作者講述了一個“迷人的冒險”(科克斯書評,星級評論),故事在講一個魔法圖書館的學徒必須與強大的巫師戰鬥以便拯救她的王國。
 
所有巫師都是邪惡的。打從伊麗莎白懂事以來,她就知道這一點。作為奧斯特米爾的一間「大圖書館」的棄兒,伊麗莎白在各種魔法工具中長大--在書架上竊竊私語,在鐵鍊下嘎嘎作響的神奇魔法書。如果被激怒,它們會變成怪誕可怕的墨水和皮革怪物。
 
然後,一次破壞的行為釋放了圖書館最危險的魔法書,伊麗莎白因此捲入了這場罪案。伊麗莎白除了死敵--巫師納撒尼爾•索恩和他神秘的惡魔僕人--找不到誰可以求助,她發現自己捲入了一個數百年的陰謀。不僅「大圖書館」將毀於一旦,整個世界也會跟著灰飛煙滅。
 
隨著她與納撒尼爾的聯盟變得更加強大,伊麗莎白開始質疑人家教給她的一切--關於巫師、她心愛的圖書館,甚至於她自己。因為伊麗莎白擁有她猜想不到的力量,以及她無法想像的未來。
