About the Book:

In The Book That Wouldn’t Burn, the internationally bestselling author of Prince of Thorns, Mark Lawrence, weaves a breathtaking tale of truth, lies, and the unstoppable power of stories.

Evar has spent his entire life confined to an infinite library, a place older than empires and larger than entire cities, where every book holds boundless knowledge, but escape is impossible. In stark contrast, Livira has grown up in a small settlement in the Dust, a harsh landscape where nightmares roam, and survival is uncertain. Her world is one of danger and isolation, far removed from the quiet knowledge of the library.

The two could not be more different, and their lives should never have crossed—yet they are about to collide in ways neither could have imagined. As their stories twist and spiral together across vast distances of time and space, they will uncover secrets capable of changing their world forever.

In this sweeping fantasy, where the pen may be mightier than the sword, but both will spill blood, Lawrence explores the enduring power of stories, the fragility of knowledge, and the hidden truths that connect us all. A tale of survival, fate, and the deep magic of words, The Book That Wouldn’t Burn is the start of an unforgettable journey.
