It is only through the swift action of visiting muse Probity that Claire is saved from being overtaken by the ink, prompting all the characters to band together in search of answers about the pool's properties and purpose. As Claire, Brevity, and their respective deputies, Ramiel and Hero, examine the mysterious ink, Claire's arm becomes engulfed in the dark liquid. Many books were destroyed in the battle that ended The Library of the Unwritten, and now the ink from these books has formed a deep pool in the Archive.

The true nature of the ink could fundamentally alter the afterlife for good or ill, but it entirely depends on who is left to hold the pen. When a representative from the Muses Corps arrives at the Library to advise Brevity, the angel Rami and the erstwhile Hero hunt for answers in other realms. But when the remains of those books begin to leak a strange ink, Claire realizes that the Library has kept secrets from Hell-and from its own librarians.Ĭlaire and Brevity are immediately at odds in their approach to the ink, and the potential power that it represents has not gone unnoticed. Former librarian Claire and Brevity the muse feel the loss of those stories, and are trying to adjust to their new roles within the Arcane Wing and Library, respectively. The Library of the Unwritten in Hell was saved from total devastation, but hundreds of potential books were destroyed. In the second installment of this richly imagined fantasy adventure series, a new threat from within the Library could destroy those who depend upon it the most.
