The Ten Thousand Doors of January
Shortlisted for the Hugo, Nebula and Locus awards for Best Novel. "A gorgeous, aching love letter to stories, storytellers and the doors they lead us through . . . absolutely enchanting." - Christina Henry, bestselling author of Alice. According to January Scaller, there’s only one way to run away from your own story, and that’s to sneak into someone else’s. In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place. But her quiet existence is shattered when she stumbles across a strange book—a book that carries the scent of other worlds and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure, and danger. Each page reveals more impossible truths about the world, and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own.
