Publisher Description
Far below the surface, a lost library waits on the shores of the Starless Sea.
The spellbinding Sunday Times bestseller.
THE TIKTOK SENSATION
When Zachary Rawlins discovers a mysterious book in his university library, he is unsettled to find a story from his own childhood written inside it. The book leads him to a masquerade ball, a secretive collectors’ society and, at last, to a vast underground harbour filled with books, doors, myths and lost stories.
Beneath the surface of the world lies the Harbor on the Starless Sea, a place of hidden libraries, painted doors, lovers divided by time and stories that rewrite themselves across centuries. But the Harbor is fragile, and Zachary’s search for answers becomes part of a much older struggle over who may enter, who may preserve stories and who may control them.
The Starless Sea is a lyrical fantasy novel about books, hidden worlds, fate, love and the power of storytelling. Dreamlike, romantic and intricate, it is a magical read for anyone drawn to libraries, secret doors and stories within stories.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Pirates, painters, owls, cats, fate and time—all of these and more can be found in Erin Morgenstern’s dreamy fantasy. Towards the beginning of The Starless Sea, graduate student Zachary finds something strange in an old book: a story from his own childhood. That discovery leads him to a hidden world that holds every tale ever told, a land which is now in danger. As she did with her bestseller The Night Circus, Morgenstern creates a magical setting that lives and breathes with suspense and emotion. Ultimately, Zachary’s quest is all about stories—how we tell them and how they shape our lives. We were reluctant to leave this exhilarating world for our own reality.
