Traue niemals einem Zauberer ... Wenn die 16-jährige Elisabeth eines weiß, dann das: Alle Zauberer sind abgrundtief böse. Seit sie als Findelkind auf den Treppen einer der Großen Bibliotheken von Austermeer ausgesetzt wurde, ist sie zwischen magischen Grimoires großgeworden - Büchern, die in den Regalen flüstern, ihre Eisenketten zum Klirren bringen und sich in tödliche Monster aus Tinte und Papier verwandeln, wenn man sie provoziert. Als durch einen Sabotageakt das gefährlichste Grimoire der ganzen Bibliothek freikommt, wird Elisabeth die Schuld gegeben. Ihr bleibt nichts anderes übrig, als sich ausgerechnet an ihren Erzfeind zu wenden - den Zauberer Nathaniel Thorn. Zusammen mit ihm und seinem dämonischen Diener Silas findet sich Elisabeth bald im Fadenkreuz einer jahrhundertealten Verschwörung wieder. Bald sind nicht nur alle Großen Bibliotheken in Gefahr, sondern die ganze Welt ... Fantasy der Extraklasse: packend, atmosphärisch und humorvoll zugleich
