Shadow of Night: All Souls Trilogy 2 by Deborah Harkness
	Kathleen Kane, September 22, 2012 There are not enough accolades to bestow upon this book!As in the sequel :"Discovery Of Witches",Deborah Harkness' deft handling of the history,fantasy and romance in this novel is superb.Kept me wanting for more.If anyone is of the mind to publish a collector's edition of the trilogy,with text and illustrations ,it would be a world wide sell out.Praises to Ms. Harkness.
