A corrupt countess. A spy in danger. And an assassin at large.
Genevieve Cogman started on Tolkien and Sherlock Holmes at an early age, and has never looked back. But on a perhaps more prosaic note, she has an MSc in Statistics with Medical Applications and has wielded this in an assortment of jobs: clinical coder, data analyst and classifications specialist. Although The Invisible Library was her debut novel, she previously worked as a freelance roleplaying game writer. She is also the author of The Masked City, The Burning Page and The Lost Plot, all in The Invisible Library series. Genevieve Cogman's hobbies include patchwork, beading, knitting and gaming, and she lives in the north of England.
Cogman fills a captivating story with animated characters and
propels the narrative at a cracking pace, planting perfectly timed
plot twists and reversals of fortune along the way
*Guardian*
I absolutely loved this . . . flavoured with truly unique mythology
and a dash of the eldritch. Such clever, creepy, elaborate
worldbuilding and snarky, sexy-smart characters!
*N. K. Jemisin on The Invisible Library (Book One)*
Irene is a great heroine: fiery, resourceful and no one’s fool, she
has a wonderfully droll sense of humour – much like the novel
itself
*Guardian on The Masked City (Book Two)*
Brilliant and so much fun. Skullduggery, Librarians, and Dragons -
Cogman keeps upping the ante on this delightful series!
*Charles Stross on The Burning Page (Book Three)*
Reminiscent of the works of Diana Wynne Jones . . . a true treat to
read
*Publishers Weekly on The Invisible Library (Book
One)*
