Kingdoms have begun to fall to a doomsday cult, the magical Graced are being persecuted, and an ancient power threatens to break free. But with the world hurtling toward its prophesized end, one man’s haunting vision reveals the dangerous beginnings of a plan to stop the Age of Darkness. Six of Crows meets Graceling with a dash of ‘Winter is Coming’ in Katy Rose Pool’s Age of Darkness series, which Kirkus calls “well-crafted, surprising, and gripping.”

These children’s books about libraries and librarians are great reminders of our best qualities—you know, like how we battle evil while still sharing stories? Or run late night libraries in the company of helpful owls? Well, okay, those are unlikely, but librarians do find incredible ways of reaching their communities (the BiblioBurro, for example, or even the kind librarian in Bunny’s Book Club). When children are taught to value the library from a young age, they are more likely to become loyal lifelong users—hey, it worked for me. So check out some of these children’s books about library life and get your kiddos jazzed for their next visit.
