Olivia Prior has grown up in Merilance School for Girls, and all she has of her past is her mother’s journal—which seems to unravel into madness. Then, a letter invites Olivia to come home to Gallant. Yet when Olivia arrives, no one is expecting her. But Olivia is not about to leave the first place that feels like home; it doesn’t matter if her cousin Matthew is hostile, or if she sees half-formed ghouls haunting the hallways.

1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization.

Molly Gray is not like everyone else. She struggles with social skills and misreads the intentions of others. Her gran used to interpret the world for her, codifying it into simple rules that Molly could live by. Since Gran died a few months ago, twenty-five-year-old Molly has been navigating life’s complexities all by herself. No matter—she throws herself with gusto into her work as a hotel maid. Her unique character, along with her obsessive love of cleaning and proper etiquette, make her an ideal fit for the job.

When editor Susan Ryeland is given the manuscript of Alan Conway's latest novel, she has no reason to think it will be much different from any of his others. After working with the best-selling crime writer for years, she's intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus Pünd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan's traditional formula has proved hugely successful.

Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

Everyone has wanted their favorite book to be real, if only for a moment. Everyone has wished to meet their favorite characters, if only for a day. But be careful in that wish, for even a history laid in ink can be repaid in flesh and blood, and reality is far deadlier than fiction...especially on Addington Isle.

Who hasn’t wondered for a split second what the world would be like if a person who is the object of your affliction ceased to exist? But then you’ve probably never heard of The McMasters Conservatory, dedicated to the consummate execution of the homicidal arts. To gain admission, a student must have an ethical reason for erasing someone who deeply deserves a fate no worse (nor better) than death. The campus of this “Poison Ivy League” college—its location unknown to even those who study there—is where you might find yourself the practice target of a classmate.

Publisher's summary
A murder on the high seas. A remarkable detective duo. A demon who may or may not exist.
The extraordinary new novel from Stuart Turton, author of the best-selling The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, winner of the Costa Best First Novel Award.
It's 1634 and Samuel Pipps, the world's greatest detective, is being transported to Amsterdam to be executed for a crime he may, or may not, have committed. Traveling with him is his loyal bodyguard, Arent Hayes, who is determined to prove his friend innocent.
But no sooner are they out to sea than devilry begins to blight the voyage. A twice-dead leper stalks the decks. Strange symbols appear on the sails. Livestock is slaughtered.
And then three passengers are marked for death, including Samuel.
Could a demon be responsible for their misfortunes?
With Pipps imprisoned, only Arent can solve a mystery that connects every passenger. A mystery that stretches back into their past and now threatens to sink the ship, killing everybody on board.

Betrayal cuts deepest when someone you love wields the knife. For Kellik, a once-rising star of Port Gloom's guild of thieves, it also leaves him floating in the bay, bleeding out and without hope or allies. Saved by an urchin and healed by a disgraced saint, Kellick is consumed by a single desire: to find out why his guild master ordered him cut down moments after passing his initiation trial. Burning with injustice, Kellik recruits a number of gorgeous rogues to his side: fallen assassins, dark elf witches, and unnervingly polite necromancers.

Betrayal cuts deepest when someone you love wields the knife. For Kellik, a once-rising star of Port Gloom's guild of thieves, it also leaves him floating in the bay, bleeding out and without hope or allies. Saved by an urchin and healed by a disgraced saint, Kellick is consumed by a single desire: to find out why his guild master ordered him cut down moments after passing his initiation trial. Burning with injustice, Kellik recruits a number of gorgeous rogues to his side: fallen assassins, dark elf witches, and unnervingly polite necromancers.

You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

In June 2021, a senseless event upends the lives of hundreds of men and women, all passengers on a flight from Paris to New York. Among them: Blake, a respectable family man, though he works as a contract killer; Slimboy, a Nigerian pop star tired of living a lie; Joanna, a formidable lawyer whose flaws have caught up with her; and Victor Miesel, a critically acclaimed yet commercially unsuccessful writer who suddenly becomes a cult hit. All of them believed they had double lives. None imagined just how true that was.

Life in a Medieval City is the classic account of the year 1250 in the city of Troyes, in modern-day France. Acclaimed historians Frances and Joseph Gies focus on a high point of medieval civilization - before war and the Black Death ravaged Europe - providing a fascinating window into the sophistication of a period we too often dismiss as backward. Urban life in the Middle Ages revolved around the home, often a mixed-use dwelling for burghers with a store or workshop on the ground floor and living quarters upstairs.

A masterpiece!
This was a tremendous book! The story was dark and twisty with a smattering of humor weaved in. Plus the narrator is perfection!
I thought Stuart Turton would have a hard time coming close to his first novel, The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, but he did!
Long as it was I never wanted it to end.

Captivating story with lots of twists and turnqs
Very long listen but so worth it. I enjoyed this more than 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle. It’s set up to expand into a series and I certainly hope that happens.

Such a good story! It’s worth listening / reading!
I absolutely love Stuart Turton’s two books. This is his second. He’s such a clever author and I can’t wait for his next book. This is a must listen / read!

The development of characters and the plot are excellent! It held my attention the whole way through the book! Every T was crossed, and every i was dotted. I would like to go back and reread!

Disappointed.
I thoroughly enjoyed the author's previous book. which is why I gave this one a try. what could have been the very interesting story was bogged down in wokeness. there is a continuous negative portrayal of religion and religious people as very bad and horrible. all rich people are scum and horrible as well. and there is Non-Stop bashing and complaining about men and the patriarchy throughout the whole damn thing. to some readers, especially of certain political or philosophical leanings, will enjoy that aspect of this book thoroughly. I did not. I read books and watch movies to escape from the loud and obnoxious social and political shouting that is pushed in our faces every day and I hate that more and more entertainment is filled with these things as well. as I said, I thoroughly enjoyed his previous book the seven and a half deaths of Evelyn hardcastle, and I may yet still give his next book, which as of this review is not yet out, a try.

An Unsatisfying Mystery and a Disappointing Ending
I struggled to enjoy this story (particularly after how much I enjoyed Turton's last book) and didn't care for either the mystery at the center of the plot or the ending. Just my personal reaction, though.

it's perfect except...
the story is engaging and unfolds beautifully. the characters are wonderfully developed and compelling, my only minor gripe is the fact that when I recommend it I need to use a disclaimer for the 3 sentence sex scene. it was so bland it could have been a medical record (for which I am grateful), but served no narrative purpose beyond making us hate the man that much more, and frankly it could have been omitted and the story would have been just as fantastic. (better in my opinion)
that said I would still very much recommend it. if you don't want to hear the sex scene, skip forward 30 seconds and you literally miss nothing narratively.

Not as good as 7 1/2 imo
Feel like it got a little too woke with some stuff personally I rolled my eyes quite a bit. However I can’t deny it is/was an engaging ride. You think you have it figured out but once again the man does surprise you. Ultimately I do recommend it I don’t think anyone would be disappointed or feel they wasted their time with this one. Well done once again to Mr.Turton!

I hate the audio. Love the book.
I think it is just the way the narrator speaks. I just don’t personally like it. However, I bought the book and read it myself and I loved it. I love the author. I own his other book and I can’t wait to see what he Comes up with next.
