About this listen
"Hackwith's poignant, imaginative series sends readers on an amazing journey, with profound prose that will capture hearts and minds." (Library Journal, starred review)
To save the Library of the Unwritten in Hell, former librarian Claire and her allies may have to destroy it first.
Claire, rakish Hero, angel Rami, and muse-turned-librarian Brevity have accomplished the impossible by discovering the true nature of unwritten books. But now that the secret is out, in its quest for power Hell will be coming for every wing of the Library.
To protect the Unwritten Wing and stave off the insidious reach of Malphas, one of Hell’s most bloodthirsty generals, Claire and her friends will have to decide how much they’re willing to sacrifice to keep their vulnerable corner of the afterlife. Succeeding would mean rewriting the nature of the Library, but losing would mean obliteration. Their only chance at survival lies in outwitting Hell and writing a new chapter for the Library. Luckily, Claire and her friends know how the right story, told well, can start a revolution.

Critic reviews
"Hackwith literally brings books to life with her layered prose, emotional scenes, slow burns, and powerful connections among found family members." (Library Journal, starred review)
“This book pulls apart what a book is, what a book could be, and gets to the soul of what it means to tell a story, all while delivering queer chemistry and intricate worldbuilding.” (Booklist, starred review)
"Powerhouse fantasy.... Writing in stirring prose, Hackwith imbues her high-concept, metafictional tale with color, action, and high-flying emotion." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
