His life and the lives of those he cares for have been altered forever. Jess Brightwell has survived his introduction to the sinister, seductive world of the Library, but serving in its army is nothing like he envisioned. With an iron fist, the Great Library controls the knowledge of the world, ruthlessly stamping out all rebellion and, in the name of the greater good, forbidding the personal ownership of books. When his friend inadvertently commits heresy by creating a device that could change the world, Jess discovers that those who control the Great Library believe that knowledge is more valuable than any human life-and soon both heretics and books will burn…
Jess has been sent to be his family’s spy, but his loyalties are tested in the final months of his training to enter the Library’s service. Jess Brightwell believes in the value of the Library, but the majority of his knowledge comes from illegal books obtained by his family, who are involved in the thriving black market. Alchemy allows the Library to deliver the content of the greatest works of history instantly-but the personal ownership of books is expressly forbidden. Ruthless and supremely powerful, the Great Library is now a presence in every major city, governing the flow of knowledge to the masses. سری The Great Library نوشته Rachel Caine.
