Publisher's Synopsis
Time travel meets urban fantasy.
Book 4 of The Time Corps Chronicles The Time Corps Chronicles is a fantasy series that moves from worlds much like our own to those where the mythical is real and the impossible is true. Clockworks, ancient spirits, time machines, talking animals and other things both beautiful and strange wait for the travelers daring enough to find them. But moving between worlds comes at a price. When Astrid, a fledgling psychopomp, sent her cousin Elliot to the Library, she thought she was saving his life. Now he is trapped in an endless building that exists in the space between worlds, a place that even the most skilled psychopomp or veteran Time Corps member can never reach. Now Elliot, an agent who has traveled through space and time, must escape from a place outside of both. Neil Gray never knew who he truly was or where he came from, but he knew he was through being an obedient assassin for Mr. March. As a Time Corps agent and a free man, he is ready for his next adventure when a tragic encounter threatens his future. Hazel Dubois, his dear friend, is left to solve the mystery surrounding Neil's very existence, one that leaves even the most ancient beings of their acquaintance perplexed. Huginn is one of the oldest Time Corps members, and though he is an amnesiac raven, dormant memories start to break free in his mind. He and his feline partner, Pangur Ban, must follow the bread crumb trail of his memories and uncover truths both new and ancient if they are to save their friends. All paths lead to the strange interdimensional Library, but the Librarian is one of the most feared creatures in all the worlds, and he does not treat visitors kindly.
