Description

With stunning prose and a captivating mixture of action, romance and horror, The Archived delves into a richly imagined world where no choice is easy and love and loss feel like two sides of the same coin. This unusual YA title is set in an otherworldly library - one where the shelves are stacked with bodies of the dead.

Author description

Victoria Schwab (www.VictoriaSchwab.com) is the author of several novels, including, "The Near Witch"-which "Kirkus" praised for its "shivery horror tang" and "extraordinary sense of place"-and "The Archived," of which "The Horn Book" said "[Schwab] writes of death, sorrow, and family love with a light, intelligent touch and inventive vigor, and provides romance with a pleasing edge of unpredictability." When she is not wandering through foreign countries, Victoria can usually be found tucked in the corner of a coffee shop in Nashville, sipping tea and dreaming of monsters.
