About this listen
Now a major Sky TV series. A Discovery of Witches season two coming soon.
Listen to the novel season two is based on.
Fall deeper under the spell of Diana and Matthew in the captivating second volume of the number one internationally best-selling All Souls trilogy, following A Discovery of Witches. Perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman, Diana Gabaldon and J. K. Rowling.
In a world of witches, daemons and vampires the fragile balance of peace is unravelling. Diana and Matthew's forbidden love has broken the laws dividing creatures. To discover the manuscript which holds their hope for the future, they must now travel back to the past.
When Diana Bishop, descended from a line of powerful witches, discovered a significant alchemical manuscript in the Bodleian Library, she sparked a struggle in which she became bound to long-lived vampire Matthew Clairmont. Now the coexistence of witches, daemons, vampires and humans is dangerously threatened.
Seeking safety, Diana and Matthew travel back in time to London, 1590. But they soon realise that the past may not provide a haven. Reclaiming his former identity as poet and spy for Queen Elizabeth, the vampire falls back in with a group of radicals known as the School of Night. Many are unruly daemons, the creative minds of the age, including playwright Christopher Marlowe and mathematician Thomas Harriot.
Together Matthew and Diana scour Tudor London for the elusive manuscript Ashmole 782 and search for the witch who will teach Diana how to control her remarkable powers....

Still not disappointed
Any additional comments?
Having listened to the first book I could hardly wait to get started on the second to find out what happened! Quite often I can be left disappointed by follow-up's as they fail to capture the excitement of the first but this did not disappoint. The cast of characters grew and so did the plot line and I found myself immersed in the story. Loved it.

Delightful story
loved the story. Narrator's accent sometimes grated when certain words were mis pronounced . Her French accent for pronunciation wasn't great but on the whole very likeable

A brilliant second book!
I had not expected the second book to be so much better than the first! The first book had blown my mind but the second was even better! Having a chance to read fan fiction about the 15th century and its prominent people was wonderful! Highly recommended for the narration style too!
