The circus arrives without warning. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not.
Against the grey sky the towering tents are striped black and white. A sign hanging upon an iron gates reads:
Opens at Nightfall
Closes at Dawn
Full of breath-taking amazements and open only at night, Le Cirque des Rêves seems to cast a spell over all who wander its circular paths. But behind the glittering acrobats, fortune-tellers and contortionists a fierce competition is underway.
Celia and Marco are two young magicians who have been trained since childhood for a deadly duel. With the lives of everyone at the Circus of Dreams at stake, they must test the very limits of the imagination, and of their love.
'The only response to this novel is simply: wow. It is a breath-taking feat of imagination, a flight of fancy that pulls you in and wraps you up in its spell' The Times

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Erin Morgenstern’s lyrical tale of love and magic renewed our sense of wonder. At the dreamlike Le Cirque des Rêves, two young magicians, Celia and Marco, are trained to challenge one another in an ever-escalating game of enchanted supremacy. But when the illusionists fall in love, the competition takes a darker turn. Jim Dale does an exquisite job reading Morgenstern’s gorgeous language and bringing to life the book’s fascinating characters. By the end of this audiobook, we were ready to run off and join the circus.
