Book excerpt: The Witch's Labyrinth A smart witch built a maze with magical obstacles and tasks to hide a powerful artifact in the middle. In Summary: In a world where magic is all around us, a smart witch known for being unbelievably strong and smart built a maze that is unlike any other. This was not a normal maze made of stones and hedges; it was a live thing full of magical barriers, tricky puzzles, and tests that put anyone who went inside to the test. Why is this important? Must keep an important item safe—something with so much magical power that it could change the course of history. The witch thought that only brave, wise, and kind people should be able to figure out what the item's secrets were. In this place, a group of young explorers agreed to go on a dangerous journey because they all wanted to have an adventure and were close with each other. Their goals were to find their way out of the maze, figure out what it was hiding, and get the treasure. Each person in the group brought something different to the table. Bravery helped them face their biggest fears, wit got them through the hardest times, and a shared heart kept the values of love and friendship alive as guides. As the travelers moved through the maze, they ran into problems that made them think outside of their normal situations. They fought illusions that tried to lead them astray, faced magical monsters that guarded the tunnels, and figured out old symbols that blocked their way. But as they went along, their determination and friendship grew, and the real reason for their journey became clear. With its winding paths and sudden obstacles, the labyrinth turned into a trip of self-discovery rather than a maze to be walked through. Not the artifact itself, but the trip they took together and the lessons they learned along the way were what they really valued. The most magical thing about people is the magic that lives in their hearts, minds, and guts, which brought them closer together and led them to the center of the maze. They went to the center and talked to the last guardian. Because they were sincere and had a strong relationship, he agreed to show them the item. But the adventurers found out that the item's real power was in bringing them together and showing them how important it is to be smart, brave, and friendly. When the explorers got back home after the labyrinth's work was done, their spirits were lifted and their lives were changed forever by the allure of their trip. Chapter 1: The Mysterious Chart Tim and Lily, two curious kids who love to find new things, found an old, worn-out map hidden in a forgotten corner of the attic one sunny morning. This wasn't your average map; it was beautifully made, with twisting roads, mysterious symbols, and a big "X" that showed where something was. The beautiful design of a plan that led to a labyrinth, a maze that was so complicated and full of magic that no one in their society dared to talk about it, caught their attention. Some people said that a smart witch built this maze to keep a powerful artifact safe. In legends, there were magical obstacles and puzzles that could only be solved by the bravest and smartest people. Tim was excited about the chance to explore such a place because he had lots of ideas and stories about brave people in his head. Lily was drawn to the mystery and the chance to find the clues that were hidden in the maze. She was also brave, but she thought about things more, was very aware of problems, and had a kind heart. Even though the stories warned them not to, they were still pulled in by the excitement of travel and the desire to learn about things they didn't know. They looked at each other and agreed in a quiet way that they were meant to go this way together. Using the map as a guide, they planned their trip by getting food and reading all the books they could find about magic, labyrinths, and the history of the area. They found out that the witch had warned that the maze was dangerous and that only brave people with good aims could find its secrets. This didn't stop them; in fact, it made them more determined. They understood how important it was to be persistent, funny, and close to each other as siblings, which would help them the most in getting through the labyrinth's challenges. As Tim and Lily set out on their trip, the sun cast long shadows behind them. They were both excited and scared. They knew that there would be problems along the way, like mental tests in the form of puzzles and magical traps that would see how strong they were. They also knew they had each other, which was a connection that brought out the best in them: courage, wisdom, strength, and empathy. The entry to the labyrinth looked exactly like it did on the map. It was hidden in the thick forest that surrounded their town, and the old stones were covered in moss, making them look like they were talking about all the people who had tried to figure it out before. They understood how bad things they were as stood in front of the doorway. They were about to go into a magical world that would test their bravery and make their bond stronger. It took a deep breath for them to move forward. The plan led them to the middle of the maze and into the unknown. While Tim and Lily's task had just begun, they knew they had to find not only the secrets of the labyrinth but also their own courage and strength. So, ready for any puzzles that lay ahead, they went into the labyrinth with hope in their hearts and the plan to help them find their way. Chapter 2: What the Witch Told Us As Tim and Lily continued their trip through the forest, the light begun to fade. The big trees blocked their view. As the temperature dropped, the mood around them got tense. Unexpectedly, a man showed up in front of them in an opening lit by the warm glow of twilight. It was the famous witch, who was scary but not too much to handle. She looked like a figure from a story; her eyes had a mysterious light in them, and her clothes seemed to blend into the night. The witch, who was known all over the area for being strong and smart, told Tim and Lily about the task that was coming up. The witch told them that the road they had picked was dangerous and would be hard to follow. Her voice was both soft and strong at the same time. She told them that the maze was made with strong, old magic and was meant to test the brave people who fell through it. It was a test of heart and character, and there were a lot of paths and obstacles to get through. The witch told them that many people had tried to get through the maze because of stories about the treasure in the middle of it, but money and fame would not help them get where others had failed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diana Bishop journeys to the darkest places within herself—and her family history—in the highly anticipated fifth novel of the beloved #1 New York Times bestselling All Souls series. “The Black Bird Oracle deftly explores the nexus of memory, history, and parenthood—the magic, pain, and promises mothers pass onto their children.”—Jodi Picoult Deborah Harkness first introduced the world to Diana Bishop, an Oxford scholar and witch, and vampire geneticist Matthew de Clermont in A Discovery of Witches. Drawn to each other despite long-standing taboos, these two otherworldly beings found themselves at the center of a battle for a lost, enchanted manuscript known as Ashmole 782. Since then, they have fallen in love, traveled to Elizabethan England, dissolved the Covenant between the three species, and awoken the dark powers within Diana’s family line. Now, Diana and Matthew receive a formal demand from the Congregation: They must test the magic of their seven-year-old twins, Pip and Rebecca. Concerned with their safety and desperate to avoid the same fate that led her parents to spellbind her, Diana decides to forge a different path for her family’s future and answers a message from a great-aunt she never knew existed, Gwyneth Proctor, whose invitation simply reads: It’s time you came home, Diana. On the hallowed ground of Ravenswood, the Proctor family home, and under the tutelage of Gwyneth, a talented witch grounded in higher magic, a new era begins for Diana: a confrontation with her family’s dark past and a reckoning for her own desire for even greater power—if she can let go, finally, of her fear of wielding it. In this stunning new novel, grand in scope, Deborah Harkness deepens the beloved world of All Souls with powerful new magic and long-hidden secrets, and the path Diana finds at Ravenswood leads to the most consequential moments yet in this cherished series.
