Dear Reader,On July 10th, Viking will be publishing Deborah Harkness’s SHADOW OF NIGHT, the highly-anticipated sequel to her blockbuster debut novel, A Discovery of Witches.
Diana Bishop and Matthew Clairmont, witch historian and vampire geneticist respectively, have timewalked to 1590s Elizabethan England on their hunt for the magical alchemical manuscript Ashmole 782--its sudden appearance and disappearance has upended the delicately ordered world of magical creatures (witches, vampires, and daemons), threatening to unleash unprecedented metaphysical chaos.
SHADOW OF NIGHT has been called "a must-buy" by Library Journal and critics everywhere are making it mandatory summer reading.
On Deborah’s Facebook page, Viking will be hosting a contest leading up to the book’s publication. Every Friday until July 6th, four winners will be selected to receive an advance copy of SHADOW OF NIGHT signed by Deborah and sample bottles of two perfumes specially selected to represent the scents of Matthew and Diana.
