About the Books
Deborah Harkness launched this series with A Discovery of Witches, introducing Diana Bishop, a reluctant witch and Cambridge historian who unwittingly summons a bewitched manuscript, Ashmole 782, in Oxford's Bodleian Library. Her discovery draws the attention of Matthew Clairmont, a centuries-old vampire scientist, and the two form an alliance that deepens into a romance forbidden by their supernatural world's customs. Shadow of Night sends the pair time-traveling to Elizabethan London, moving among scholars, spies, and the shadowy School of Night while chasing clues to the manuscript's secrets. The Book of Life brings them back to the present, where old enemies and the demands of Diana's magical inheritance collide. Time's Convert shifts focus to vampire origins and family bonds, following a new generation grappling with what it means to be turned. Across all four novels, Harkness — a history professor by training — weaves genetics, alchemy, and folklore into a richly researched world where witches, vampires, and daemons coexist uneasily alongside humans, praised for its intelligent world-building and slow-burn romance.
