France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world. But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.

Four months have passed since the shadow stone fell into Kell's possession. Four months since his path was crossed with Delilah Bard. Four months since Rhy was wounded and the Dane twins fell, and the stone was cast with Holland's dying body through the rift, and into Black London. In many ways, things have almost returned to normal, though Rhy is more sober, and Kell is now plagued by his guilt. Restless, and having been given up smuggling, Kell is visited by dreams of ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila, who disappeared from the docks like she always meant to do. As Red London finalizes preparations for the Element Games-an extravagant international competition of magic, meant to entertain and keep the ties between neighboring countries healthy- a certain pirate ship draws closer, carrying old friends back into port. But while Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. After all, a shadow that was gone in the night reappears in the morning, and so it seems Black London has risen again-and so to keep magic's balance, another London must fall.

Kell is one of the last Antari―magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel Londons; Red, Grey, White, and, once upon a time, Black. Kell was raised in Arnes―Red London―and officially serves the Maresh Empire as an ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons, the one without any magic left to see. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never see. It's a defiant hobby with dangerous consequences, which Kell is now seeing firsthand. After an exchange goes awry, Kell escapes to Grey London and runs into Delilah Bard, a cut-purse with lofty aspirations. She first robs him, then saves him from a deadly enemy, and finally forces Kell to spirit her to another world for a proper adventure. Now perilous magic is afoot, and treachery lurks at every turn. To save all of the worlds, they'll first need to stay alive.

Imagine a place where the dead rest on shelves like books. Each body has a story to tell, a life seen in pictures only Librarians can read. The dead are called Histories, and the vast realm in which they rest is the Archive. Mackenzie Bishop''s grandfather first brought her here four years ago, when she was twelve years old, frightened but determined to prove herself. Now her grandfather is dead, and Mac has grown into what he once was: a ruthless Keeper, tasked with stopping often violent Histories from waking up and getting out. Because of her job, she lies to the people she loves, and she knows fear for what it is: a useful tool for staying alive. Follow Mackenzie as she explores the boundary between living and dying, sleeping and waking, through these two timeless novels, now bound together in this thrilling collection. With stunning prose and a captivating mixture of action, romance, and horror, The Dark Vault delves into a richly imagined world where no choice is easy and love and loss feel like two sides of the same coin.

Da autora da série Tons de Magia, um mundo rico e criativo, repleto de segredos e escolhas difíceis, em que amor e perda parecem ser duas faces da mesma moeda. O segundo livro da série A Guardiã de Histórias Mackenzie Bishop é uma das Guardiãs do Arquivo, um domínio secreto onde descansam as Histórias dos mortos — registros de sua vida armazenados em corpos. Se uma História desperta, ela pode enlouquecer e tentar fugir — e cabe a Mac garantir que cada uma seja devolvida à sua prateleira. No entanto, Mackenzie não se sente mais tão apta para o trabalho. Os acontecimentos do verão passado a assombram, e, quando os pesadelos que a perseguem começam a se insinuar mesmo durante o dia, ela sabe que algo está errado. Estaria lentamente perdendo a sanidade ou será que algo ainda mais sinistro a está perseguindo? Enquanto isso, pessoas começam a desaparecer sem deixar vestígios, e, quando Mackenzie acaba tornando-se a principal suspeita, ela se vê na obrigação de descobrir o verdadeiro culpado. Caso contrário, ela corre o risco de perder tudo — seu papel de Guardiã, suas memórias... e até sua vida.
