Evar has lived his whole life trapped within a vast library, older than empires and larger than cities. Livira has spent hers in a tiny settlement out on the Dust where nightmares stalk and no one goes. The world has never noticed them. That’s about to change.

The Archon has ordered a day of celebration to mark her ascension to power. While most people in the city are looking forward to a day off and an excuse to drink and eat too much, Thea and the rest of the city's Watch are on high alert. The Archon and the Ageless might be the rulers and the most powerful beings in the world, but they are not well liked. And there's a human faction that wants to see them fall.

The fate of an infinite library hangs on one book, a book that holds the power to break the unbreakable. In the face of such forces, fragile things like hearts, family, and the world seem certain to fail. The people most vital to Livira are scattered across time and space, lost, divided into factions, in mortal peril. Somehow, she must bring them together and resolve the unresolvable argument that fuels the library’s war. The bond between Livira and Evar has stretched and stretched again. Can it hold at the end, when things fall apart? Can it bring them together against impossible odds?

It was meant to be a cosy evening at the Black Feather, but the atmosphere takes a chilling turn when one of the guests clutches his throat, gasping for breath, and topples off his chair. Nathalie, the inn's owner, is in a state of shock... until she finds out that the "victim" is part of the "Poisoners' Club", an assembly of approximately two dozen pharmacists who gather annually in the quaint town of Earlsraven. Their convention promises an evening of amusement, in the form of activities such as "Guess that Side Effect", "Pill Popping Bingo", and, a crowd favourite, "What's Your Poison?".
