- The book that broke the world / by Lawrence, Mark,1966-author.;
The Library of Alexandria died in fire. Others fade away with less drama, ignored, forgotten, left to dust. To the athenaeum though, the great library of which all others are echoes, fires are merely a temporary inconvenience. The only true threat to the library's existence is a book -- the one Livira wrote. Livira's book also brought her together with Evar, a young man who was raised in the library itself, and they discovered secrets that no one else had uncovered. But now they are separated -- and something hunts them both.- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Dystopian fiction.; Novels.; Books and reading; Imaginary places; Libraries; Memory; Secrecy; Young men;

- The book that wouldn't burn / by Lawrence, Mark,1966-author.;
The boy has lived his whole life trapped within a book-choked chamber older than empires and larger than cities. The girl has spent hers in a tiny settlement out on the Dust, where nightmares stalk and no one goes. The world has never even noticed them. That's about to change. Their stories spiral around each other, across worlds and time. This is a tale of truth and lies and hearts, and the blurring of one into another. A journey on which knowledge erodes certainty and on which, though the pen may be mightier than the sword, blood will be spilled and cities burned.- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Dystopian fiction.; Novels.; Books and reading; Corruption; Girls; Imaginary places; Libraries; Memory; Secrecy; Strangers; Xenophobia; Young men;

- The book that held her heart / by Lawrence, Mark,1966-author.;
"Two people once connected by a vast and mysterious library are now separated and must overcome time and distance to reunite and bring peace to their worlds ... 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? This is the last chapter, the final page. The end threatens and no one, not characters, readers, or even the author, will emerge unscathed"--- Subjects: Fantasy fiction.; Dystopian fiction.; Novels.; Books; Imaginary places; Libraries; Magic; Man-woman relationships; Women apprentices;
