Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A single night. An impossible city. Everything to lose.Nell Fairbanks checks things. She checks the tide tables, the old harbour surveys, the exact number of houses in her small, wet, ordinary town.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Some things are taken so carefully you don't know they're gone.Casimir Pryce picks up his favourite book one Tuesday morning and feels absolutely nothing.

Something has been taken from him while he slept.When a suspicious new boy named Orion reveals that thirty-one children at Cas's school have had their imaginations quietly harvested by something ancient and hungry, the trail leads to the most beloved person in the building, and to a section of the Library Between Worlds that no Storykeeper has ever entered: the Chamber of First Stories, where every human being's capacity for imagination is held as a single, irreplaceable thread of light.The third book in The Storykeeper Chronicles is a mystery, a heist, and a love letter to everyone who has ever loved a story so much that losing it would feel like losing themselves.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Nora Fairbank works in her family's lost property shop, where four thousand one hundred and six forgotten things sit on numbered shelves, waiting for owners who are never coming back. Nora has catalogued every one of them. She believes, more than she believes anything, that everything has a history.Then she opens a suitcase nobody claimed, and finds a photograph of a street that is not on any map, a woman nobody remembers, and a date that has not happened yet.Hidden inside the photograph is a ticket.THE NULL MUSEUM. ONE VISITOR. ONE EXHIBIT.DO NOT RETURN THE OBJECT.Behind an ordinary brick wall, Nora finds a building the size of a shed with a hall inside it the size of a county. It holds snow from a winter that never arrived. A telephone containing a four-minute conversation between two people who were never born. A wedding cake, still fresh, for a wedding that had nowhere to happen. And four thousand paper name tags, hanging in a wind that does not exist.One exhibit is missing. There is no broken lock, no forced door and no record of a theft, and the only person who can explain it is a curator who has been guarding a secret for sixty-one years.To find the truth, Nora will have to break the museum's rules, outwit a woman nobody is able to remember, and answer the question the museum has been asking for four hundred years: if nobody remembers something, does that mean it never mattered?

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Enter a world where grief grows in the garden, and the bravest thing you can do is finish someone else's story.Twelve-year-old Elowen Vane arrives at Ravenmoor Hall on a grey November afternoon with a carpet bag, a letter from a London solicitor, and a grief she does not yet know how to carry. Her uncle is a ghost in his own house. The doors are mostly locked. And at night, through the walls, someone is crying.But beneath the frost-dead greenhouse at the estate's forgotten edge, Elowen finds a key. And behind the key, a door. And behind the door, an impossible garden: the Dreaming Garden, a living section of the Library Between Worlds, built from every story ever told about growing things, about seasons, about putting your hands in the earth and finding something there that answers.The Garden is half-frozen. A grief left unfinished has become the Withering, a cold that stops stories at their worst moment and holds them there. To save the Garden, Elowen must find the ending of a story that was never completed. She will need the help of Aldric, a boy who has been told he will die young and has started to believe it, and Wren, who knows the name of every living thing and can hear what plants are not doing.In the second book of the Storykeeper Chronicles, Jeff Muff returns to the Library Between Worlds with a new heroine, a new mystery, and a garden that has been waiting for exactly the right reader.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if a book already knew your name?Not just your name. Your secrets.The ones you have never written down. Twelve-year-old Maren Ashfield finds a blue book in her favourite secondhand shop. It has no author. No title on the spine. But the first page reads: A Record of the Life of Maren E. Ashfield - and what follows is her entire life, described in accurate and slightly alarming detail, right up to the moment she is standing there reading it.Then it begins to describe what happens next. While she is holding it, a new sentence forms on the page - letter by careful letter - telling her exactly what she is doing at that moment.And then it writes something she absolutely refuses to do.Following the book leads Maren to a street that most people have never noticed, a door that opens without being unlocked, and a staircase that goes down considerably further than any building should allow. At the bottom lies the Archive of Unlived Lives: a library so vast its upper shelves dissolve into permanent dimness, so ancient its books have learned to read themselves aloud, and so strange that the shelves sometimes rearrange while you are walking between them.Every book in the Archive describes something that almost happened. A world that came within a single decision of being real. A life that nearly went differently. A moment that almost changed everything - and then did not. The Archive holds all the possibilities that history left behind, condensed into books that whisper to themselves in the dark.But someone has been breaking the rules.Nine books have been secretly altered. Someone is rewriting the impossible histories inside them, building invisible pressure toward a single catastrophic act: making one unlived world real enough to replace this one. To uncover who - and why - Maren must work alongside the suspicious, sardonic Felix, who is hiding something enormous, and the brilliant Theodora, who catalogues the library by emotion and always arrives with biscuits. Together they must navigate a place where reading is genuinely dangerous, where some books offer the one thing you most desperately want, and where the rules exist for very good reasons.Deep in the personal histories section, on a shelf that bears her own name, Maren finds a book called A Shorter Grief.She knows exactly what it contains. She knows what shorter means. She knows she should put it back.But knowing something and doing something about it, as every reader of this book will discover, are very different things. Some libraries keep books.This one keeps the lives you almost lived. What would yours contain? This item is printed on demand.
