Deborah Harkness returns with The Black Bird Oracle, the highly anticipated fifth novel in her beloved All Souls series. Harkness first introduced readers to Oxford scholar and witch Diana Bishop and vampire geneticist Matthew de Clairmont in A Discovery of Witches. Drawn to each other despite long-standing taboos, they bonded over the battle to recover a lost enchanted manuscript.
Since then, they have fallen in love, traveled to Elizabethan England, dissolved the Covenant between the three species, and awoken the dark powers within Diana’s family line. With a new formal demand from the Congregation, and desperate to avoid the same fate that led her parents to spellbind her, Diana decides to forge a different path to ensure her family’s safety and answers a message from a great-aunt she never knew existed.
Deborah Harkness is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night, and The Book of Life. A history professor at the University of Southern California, Harkness has received Fulbright, Guggenheim, and National Humanities Center fellowships.
All books purchased as part of a ticket and book bundle will be pre-signed and include priority access to a post-event photo opportunity with Deborah Harkness. There will not be a post-event book signing.
