Jess Brightwell a survécu à son introduction au monde sinistre et séduisant de la Bibliothèque, mais servir dans son armée n’a rien à voir avec ce qu’il avait imaginé. Sa vie et celle de ses proches ont été bouleversées à jamais.

Embarqués dans une mission pour sauver l’un des leurs, Jess et son groupe d’alliés font un faux pas et se retrouvent soudain traqués par les automates mortels de la Bibliothèque et contraints de fuir Alexandrie, jusqu’à Londres.

Mais la maison de Jess n’est plus sûre. L’armée galloise arrive, Londres brûle, et bientôt Jess devra choisir entre ses amis, sa famille, et la Bibliothèque, qui est prête à sacrifier n’importe quoi et n’importe qui dans sa quête du contrôle ultime…

But Jess’s home isn’t safe anymore. The Welsh army is coming, London is burning, and soon Jess must choose between his friends, his family, and the Library, which is willing to sacrifice anything and anyone in the search for ultimate control…
