    De meeste mensen kennen maar één Londen. Wat bijna niemand weet, is dat er vier verschillende Londens zijn. Grijs Londen: vies, saai en zonder magie. Rood Londen, waar magie wordt vereerd en de Maresh-dynastie heerst over een welvarend rijk. Wit Londen, waar men vecht om controle over de magie. En ooit was er Zwart Londen – maar daar heeft niemand het meer over. Kell is een zeldzame magiër die tussen de verschillende versies van Londen kan reizen. Als hij in Grijs Londen zakkenroller Lila ontmoet, is dat het begin van een avontuur dat ze naar alle uithoeken van de stad brengt. Maar gevaarlijke magie ligt op de loer en het verraad achtervolgt hen. Om alle werelden te kunnen redden moeten Kell en Lila in de eerste plaats in leven zien te blijven, en dat blijkt lastiger dan gedacht.

    Four months have passed since the shadow stone fell into Kell's possession. Four months since his path crossed with Delilah Bard. Four months since Rhy was wounded and the Dane twins fell, and the stone was cast with Holland's dying body through the rift, and into Black London. In many ways, things have almost returned to normal, though Rhy is more sober, and Kell is now plagued by his guilt. Restless, and having given up smuggling, Kell is visited by dreams of ominous magical events, waking only to think of Lila, who disappeared from the docks like she always meant to do. As Red London finalizes preparations for the Element Games-an extravagant international competition of magic, meant to entertain and keep healthy the ties between neighboring countries-a certain pirate ship draws closer, carrying old friends back into port. But while Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. After all, a shadow that was gone in the night reappears in the morning, and so it seems Black London has risen again-and so to keep magic's balance, another London must fall...in V.E. Schwab's "A Gathering of Shadows."

  • The Shades of Magic 1-3

    Kell is one of the last Antari—magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel Londons; Red, Grey, White, and, once, Black. Unofficially, Kell is a smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never see. It's a defiant hobby with dangerous consequences. A Darker Shade of Magic — Kell serves the Maresh Empire—Red London, as he calls it—as an official ambassador, traveling between the frequent bloody regime changes in White London and the court of George III in the dullest of Londons. After one such visit goes awry, Kell escapes his home for Grey London and runs into Delilah Bard, a cut-purse with lofty aspirations. Now perilous magic is afoot, and treachery lurks at every turn. To save all of the worlds, they'll first need to stay alive. A Gathering of Shadows — While Red London is caught up in the pageantry and thrills of the Element Games, another London is coming back to life, and those who were thought to be forever gone have returned. A Conjuring of Light — As darkness sweeps the Maresh Empire, the once precarious balance of power among the four Londons has reached its breaking point.
