Have you ever wondered what may happen if Alexander the Great's Library wasn't lost? Well, this author definitely did and she took it and ran with it. I love when authors use a diverse set of names and this book had that. Not only that but the characters were all really diverse. There were characters from so many different countries. You’re immediately drawn into the world of The Great Library, where they run everything and yet they’re neutral. It was fascinating the way history was twisted to keep Alexander the Great’s Library and to see how it was changed over time. Caine doesn’t pull back. She shows all the dark and gritty things that happen. She doesn’t hold back when it comes to the darker themes and that made me really admire her. This book has alchemy and other interesting things. Check it out!
