Smoke and Iron ( The Great Library #4 )
By Rachel Caine
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The opening moves of a deadly game have begun. Jess Brightwell has put himself in direct peril, with only his wits and skill to aid him in a game of cat and mouse with the Archivist Magister of the Great Library. With the world catching fire, and words printed on paper the spark that lights rebellion, it falls to smugglers, thieves, and scholars to save a library thousands of years in the making...if they can stay alive long enough to outwit their enemies.

So it’s all coming to an end! I’m so sad to see the series end but also so grateful I found it. Book one took two attempts to get through but once I had I didn’t look back.
I can’t imagine living in a world where The Library rules what we are exposed to where it is so corrupt it causes a world war. We all expect it from religion or politics but not from books and librarians. This is such a brilliant series to sink into.
Just a shame we are at its end!!

I want the Library
I was fortune enough to win tickets through PureHmv to the London Gala screening of this film weeks before it was out in cinemas. As a Disney Addict this was a dream come true.

I was unsure when they announced a live action Beauty and Beast being a huge fan of orginal. That being said I loved every moment from start to end. Even new song like Evermore and how does a moment last forever. Normally I hate playing about with music but they had Alan Menken so Disney knew what it was doing.


For me the stand out actor was Joss Had his comic timing and enthusamism of the character is contagious.


My only fault if this film they could of had a bigger Library

Alcatraz and some new friends and relatives are off to the Library of Alexandria to hopefully track down his grandfather and maybe even his long lost father. But will they be able to do it while escaping the assassin on their tail and the keepers of the library who want their souls. A second absolutely delightful adventure for kids that keeps you laughing and turning pages to find out what will happen next.

The first volume seemed like more of a mythical history lesson on the library and its caretakers in the story. The second volume starts with the main character being several years older, on his way to attempt the Kafna exam, so it's more of a full story volume. I ended up enjoying this volume a lot more than the first. As Theo travels to the Central Library, he visits neighboring cities and has experiences in each one. Each is woven nicely into a bit of an overall life lesson.
