• A Discovery of Witches

Deborah Harkness's A Discovery of Witches, the first book in the All Souls Trilogy, weaves a captivating tale of magic, history, and forbidden love. Historian Diana Bishop, a descendant of witches, unwittingly calls up an ancient manuscript in Oxford's Bodleian Library, thrusting herself into a world she's long avoided. She encounters Matthew Clairmont, a centuries-old vampire, and their forbidden romance blossoms amidst a growing conflict between witches, vampires, and daemons, all vying for control of the book and its power. Diana and Matthew must unlock the manuscript's mysteries and protect themselves, uncovering a hidden history and rewriting the rules of their supernatural world.
