Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"A suitably labyrinthine plot... Above all, it is King's sheer gift for storytelling that makes Ex Libris such an enjoyable read." -- "The Oxford Times" "Highly original and very clever indeed." -- "Manchester Evening News" "An exquisite historical thriller and a story which twists and turns like the beautifully-evoked back streets of 17th century London." -- "Yorkshire Evening Post" "Ross King is a master craftsman of extravagant melodrama." -- "Irish Times"

Reseña del editor:

A gripping novel of love, murder and espionage. . . A cryptic summons from Lady Marchamont launches a London bookseller on an odessey through the back alleys and secret corridors of seventeenth-century Europe. Bibliophile Isaac Inchbold suddenly finds himself slipping from the surface of 1660s London and into an underworld of spies, smugglers, traitors, alchemists and mad priests. So begins a scholarly game: a game where forces are anonymous, motives inexplicable, but the outcome deadly.
