NATIONAL BESTSELLER - From the bestselling author of The Night Circus, a timeless love story set in a secret underground world--a place of pirates, painters, lovers, liars, and ships that sail upon a starless sea.Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues--a bee, a key, and a sword--that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth. What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians--it is a place of lost cities and seas, lovers who pass notes under doors and across time, and of stories whispered by the dead. Zachary learns of those who have sacrificed much to protect this realm, relinquishing their sight and their tongues to preserve this archive, and also of those who are intent on its destruction. Together with Mirabel, a fierce, pink-haired protector of the place, and Dorian, a handsome, barefoot man with shifting alliances, Zachary travels the twisting tunnels, darkened stairwells, crowded ballrooms, and sweetly soaked shores of this magical world, discovering his purpose--in both the mysterious book and in his own life.

A fantastical 78-card tarot deck and guidebook hand-painted by the award-winning author of the spellbinding bestseller The Night Circus. Welcome to The Phantomwise Tarot. This black-and-white world is a little bit circusy, a little bit Wonderland, and a little bit nocturnal phantasia of its own invention. It is a mix of myth and fairy tale, where each individual you meet may be an illusion, reflection, or distortion. When Erin Morgenstern was working on her international bestseller The Night Circus, she began a creative exercise to better understand the complexities of the tarot. This painted series captures the themes of each of the 78 cards in a traditional Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck with equal parts whimsy and mystery. Archetypal figures like The Fool, The Hierophant, and The Lovers emerge from dark skies and swirling clouds. The ravens may not be what they seem. The cats know more than they'll ever tell. The accompanying guidebook offers interpretations of the cards and suggested spreads for tarot readings for beginners and expert readers alike. These cards have waited patiently for over a decade to find their way into the world. Please welcome them into yours.

"Osalt armastuslugu, osalt muinasjutt... trotsib zhanre ja ootusi." - The Boston Globe Tsirkus saabub vähimagi hoiatuseta. Sellele ei eelne mingeid teadaandeid. See lihtsalt on kohal, kuigi eile veel ei olnud. Musta-valgetriibulistes kangast telkides peitub täiesti ainulaadne kogemus, mis võtab hingest kinni, hämmastab. Tsirkuse nimi on Le Cirque des Reves ja see on avatud ainult öösel. Ent kulisside taga käib äge võistlus - duell kahe noore mustkunstniku, Celia ja Marco vahel. See on mäng, kus ellu jääb vaid üks. Kuid tahes-tahtmata Celia ja Marco armuvad - nende armastus on sügav ja maagiline, selline, mis paneb tuled vilkuma ja muudab toa soojaks iga kord, kui kas või nende käed kokku puutuvad. Tõeline armastus või mitte, mäng tuleb lõpuni mängida. Kõigi saatus keerleb sama peadpööritavalt nagu julged akrobaadid kõrgel lava kohal. See lopsakas ja lummav romaan on meelte ja südame jaoks tõeline maiuspala. "Maagiline. Paeluv. Vaimustav. Lummav." - Associated Press
