Resumen del Editor
Two people living in a world connected by an immense and mysterious library must fight for those they love in the second book in a new trilogy from the international bestselling author of The Book That Wouldn’t Burn.
The Library spans worlds and times. It touches and joins distant places. It is memory and future. And amid its vastness Evar Eventari both found, and lost, Livira Page.
Evar has been forced to flee the library, driven before an implacable foe. Livira, trapped in a ghost world, has to recover the book she wrote—one which is the only true threat to the library’s existence—if she's to return to her life.
While Evar's journey leads him outside into a world he's never seen, Livira's path will taker her deep inside her own writing, where she must wrestle with her stories in order to reclaim the volume in which they were written.
The secret war that defines the library has chosen its champions and set them on the board. The time has come when they must fight for what they believe, or lose everything.

Historia
The boy has lived his whole life trapped within a book-choked chamber older than empires and larger than cities. The girl has been plucked from the outskirts of civilization to be trained as a librarian, studying the mysteries of the great library at the heart of her kingdom. They were never supposed to meet. But in the library, they did. Their stories spiral around each other, across worlds and time. This is a tale of truth and lies and hearts, and the blurring of one into another.

In the ice, east of the Black Rock, there is a hole into which broken children are thrown. Yaz's people call it the Pit of the Missing, and now it is drawing her in as she has always known it would. To resist the cold, to endure the months of night when even the air itself begins to freeze, requires a special breed. Variation is dangerous, difference is fatal. And Yaz is not the same.

Historia
In Daretana’s greatest mansion, a high imperial officer lies dead—killed, to all appearances, when a tree erupted from his body. Even here at the Empire’s borders, where contagions abound and the blood of the leviathans works strange magical changes, it’s a death both terrifying and impossible. Assigned to investigate is Ana Dolabra, a detective whose reputation for brilliance is matched only by her eccentricities. Rumor has it that she wears a blindfold at all times, and that she can solve impossible cases without even stepping outside the walls of her home.

The Catenan Republic—the Hierarchy—may rule the world now, but they do not know everything. I tell them my name is Vis Telimus. I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago, and that good fortune alone has led to my acceptance into their most prestigious school. I tell them that once I graduate, I will gladly join the rest of civilized society in allowing my strength, my drive, and my focus—what they call Will—to be leeched away and added to the power of those above me, as millions already do. As all must eventually do.

Sancia Grado is a thief, and a damn good one. And her latest target, a heavily guarded warehouse on Tevanne’s docks, is nothing her unique abilities can’t handle. But unbeknownst to her, Sancia’s been sent to steal an artifact of unimaginable power, an object that could revolutionize the magical technology known as scriving. The Merchant Houses who control this magic - the art of using coded commands to imbue everyday objects with sentience - have already used it to transform Tevanne into a vast, remorseless capitalist machine.

All legends are born of truths. And just as much lies. These are mine. Judge me for what you will. But you will hear my story first. I buried the village of Ampur under a mountain of ice and snow. Then I killed their god. I've stolen old magics and been cursed for it. I started a war with those that walked before mankind and lost the princess I loved, and wanted to save. I've called lightning and bound fire. I am legend. And I am a monster.

Davi has done this all before. She’s tried to be the hero and take down the all-powerful Dark Lord. A hundred times she’s rallied humanity and made the final charge. But the time loop always gets her in the end. Sometimes she’s killed quickly. Sometimes it takes a while. But she’s been defeated every time. This time? She’s done being the hero and done being stuck in this endless time loop. If the Dark Lord always wins, then maybe that’s who she needs to be. It’s Davi’s turn to play on the winning side.

Intrigued by the first book…now in love with the second.
Apparently, I live under a rock, Books, one and two of this series are my first foray into any of Mr. Lawrence’s writing…. I hope I haven’t set myself up for disappointment, due to the excellent world building and complexity (not to mention the action sequences, occasionally snarky and wonderfully quirky sense of humor) of this series so far.
I’m sure there are more of this authors works in my very near future.
My only complaint is totally because I am an American who thinks everybody sounds like me… I believe the author uses European/UK pronunciation and sometimes it just threw me off. But really, that’s probably more on me than it is the narrator! I did enjoy her overall performance.
Overall 11/10… I am already looking forward to re-listening to the first two books just prior to book 3 coming out.

A Great Listen
I'll start with the bad: this wasn't as good as the first book. This felt like a middle book to me; some necessary expansion of the world and characters leading into the final book. But it didn't get its hooks as deep into me as the first, and was just "good" until bringing it together in the end. Of course, I still really enjoyed it, needed to know what happened, and can't wait for the next step. It's a testament to how much I liked the first book that this book fell short and was still a 5-star book. So if the author could just use the exchange to influence the first book and make it worse, this one might look better? In all seriousness, definitely my favorite world and concept from Mr. Lawrence so far.

Really a 3.75 of Five star Rating
This book was challenging due to timeline shifts in the plot that weren't always easy to follow. The characters also didn't really seem evolve a lot in this second book int the Library Series. Once the Lawrence (author) gives you a brief recap of where book 1 left off, he throws you into the chaos of book 2.
I'm not sure abut those that read this book before me, but it took me a beat to get my bearings on what was going on. It took me a minute but once I did, I found my enjoyment of the book again. The characters especially secondary ones almost overtake the main two protagonists (Evar & LIvira) development.
While the plot was adventurous and romance between the Evar & Livira end up being the main drivers, I found I actually liked development of Celcha and her POV the most.
The ending was a bit abrupt and I'm not sure how I'll feel about the conclusion of this trilogy based on the end of this second book.

Mind opening
This really makes you think how important history and knowledge is. We can’t live in ignorance and repeat the same mistakes that have been made. And knowledge about other cultures and people are important too. Stereotypes are like a cancer.

Not as good as the first but enthralling just the same
I found it a little bit harder to follow the twists and turns of the story (the Ganar?) but it was enjoyable and captivating. The narration was excellent, probably the best

Repetitive/Long/Cannibalism
I liked the 1st book because it was original. This one was way too long and repetitive. The performance was good, but the actual content and the story line was poor. I think the author tried to stretch it out. It was way too violent for me, going into cannibalism just to introduce a new element to the story line.
It was a wasted credit. If you enjoyed the 1st book, run from the sequel.

The Book That Broke the World by Mark Lawrence
4.75 ⭐
Second installment of The Library Trilogy.
Lawrence is utilizing the mechanism and the library and the ideas of how stories travel, manifest. Some authors will create a great idea, top notch and yet they only explore it so far as it allows them to tell the love story. If you can take away all aspects of fantasy out of the story and then it becomes a modern fiction, you are not writing fantasy. We don't have to worry about that with Mark Lawrence.
It's interesting that he's exploring interspecies relations. I know Ice Planet Barbarians got a whole lot of flack for that but he doesn't seem to be suffering the same fate. Dare I say, the alien smut walked so Mark Lawrence could run? 🤣🤣🤣 I'm just kidding. Octavia Butler explored amicable interspecies, reproduction thoroughly, decades ago.
I really enjoy the exercise of revenge, whether over an instant or lifetimes.
Overall, I don't know if I felt more distracted. Just go around or if I just wasn't as easily engaged, but that's the only reason I'm ticking off a quarter of a star. I think this is a fantastic read, I'll look forward to doing a reread once the whole trilogy comes out.
