The Dark Talent is the fifth action-packed fantasy adventure in the Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians series for young readers by the #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson. This never-before-published, fast-paced, and funny novel is now available in a deluxe hardcover edition, illustrated by Hayley Lazo.
Alcatraz Smedry has successfully defeated the army of Evil Librarians and saved the kingdom of Mokia. Too bad he managed to break the Smedry Talents in the process. Even worse, his father is trying to enact a scheme that could ruin the world, and his friend, Bastille, is in a coma. To revive her, Alcatraz must infiltrate the Highbrary—known as The Library of Congress to Hushlanders—the seat of Evil Librarian power. Without his Talent to draw upon, can Alcatraz figure out a way to save Bastille and defeat the Evil Librarians once and for all?
“Like Lemony Snicket and superhero comics rolled into one.” –Publishers Weekly, starred review

These books look really exciting. I would love to try them out. Thanks for the intro to the series and the giveaway!
I want to win, because love the saga and this is the final book, i just want to know more.
I love to read advention, action, and books with humor and this book has all of that. Plus, the Library of Congress is one of my “sacred” places as an author and someday I will go there and get lost inside. If this author has an imagination and writing skills like Lemony Snicket (love this sense of humor), then I will adore this book and become a fan for life.
Sorry, got so excited about this new book that I forgot to leave my email : dhammelef (at) yahoo (dot) com
