Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a strange book hidden in the library stacks. As he turns the pages  entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners  key collectors  and nameless acolytes  he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded  Zachary uncovers a series of clues  a bee  a key and a sword  that lead him to a masquerade party in New York  to a secret club  and through a doorway to a subterranean library  hidden far below the surface of the earth.  What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians  it is a place of lost cities and seas  lovers who pass notes under doors and across time  and of stories whispered by the dead. Zachary learns of those who have sacrificed much to protect this realm  relinquishing their sight and their tongues to preserve this archive  and also those who are intent on its destruction.  Together with Mirabel  a fierce  pink-haired protector of the place  and Dorian  a handsome barefoot man with shifting alliances  Zachary travels the twisting tunnels  darkened stairwells  crowded ballrooms  and sweetly-soaked shores of this magical world  searching for understanding  both of the mysterious book and his own life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946425380917,"sku":"ByrdShop_1910701459","price":76.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781910701454.jpg?v=1770378559","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-starless-sea","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
