The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins



The beginning of this unique story left me slightly confused, thinking I had missed something or that maybe it was a sequel, but it quickly took off and kept me fully enthralled. 
A mysterious Library full of strange librarians, each responsible for their own subject or catalogue, are looking for Father who has suddenly gone missing. Nothing is as it seems, and nothing in this book is like anything else I have ever read. It defies genre but is perfect for fans of Michael Crichton, Dan Brown, and J.K. Rowling alike. It contains conspiracies, fantasy, mythology, science fiction, mystery, murder, magic, and of course, books in an incredible library. 
This book was completely engrossing and is nearly impossible to describe, but lingers in your mind. The audio book narrator portrayed the myriad of characters stunningly, differentiating them all so the listener is not once confused as to who is speaking. 
Highly recommended for ALL adult readers.
