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.

There was a time when there were four worlds, each pulsating with magical power and connected by a single city: London. After a desperate attempt to prevent the corruption and ruin of the four Londons, only three remained standing: Gray London, prosperous but barely able to remember its magical heritage; Red London, rich and powerful, ruled in recent times by the Maresh family; and White London, abandoned to brutality and decadence. Now the worlds are going to collide again, drawn to the edge of a dangerous precipice by the discoveries of three extraordinary magicians. First there is Kosika, the girl queen of White London, who has fed her city on blood and dreams, and whose growing devotion to both is leading her down a dangerous path. Then there''s Delilah Bard, a thief who was born in Gray London and crossed the worlds to become a legend far away. She''s a famous magician, a cunning heroine, and a reckless scoundrel all at once. After disappearing in search of a new adventure, she is forced to return to a dangerous port to join some old friends who need her help more than they imagine. And finally there is Tes, a young runaway with a powerful and unusual ability, who hides in Red London while she tries to stay out of the spotlight. Tes is the only one who can prevent the worlds from falling apart, if she manages to survive first.

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.

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.
