The library at Mount Char

by Hillary Huber, Scott Hawkins · 2015

When the enigmatic Father vanishes, the Library at Mount Char—an ancient vault of reality‑shaping knowledge—lies unguarded, and the power to remake the world hangs in the balance. Carolyn, once an ordinary American who now lives among Father’s adopted children, has spent years mastering the Library’s forbidden tomes while clinging to the small comforts of guacamole, cigarettes and a quirky sense of style. As rival siblings and otherworldly foes converge, each wielding powers far beyond her own, Carolyn must outwit them all and claim the ultimate prize. Yet in her relentless quest to become the new god, she risks losing the very humanity that makes her fight worth fighting for.
