In the first book in an excellent new fantasy series, books that aren’t finished by their authors reside in the Library from the Unwritten in Hell, and it is up to the Librarian to track down any restless characters who emerge from those unfinished stories.

A long time ago, Claire was named Head Librarian from the Unwritten Wing– a natural space in Hell where all the stories unfinished by their authors reside. Her job consists primarily of repairing and arranging books, but also of keeping track of about The Library of the Unwritten restless tales that risk materializing as heroes and escaping the library. Whenever a Hero escapes from his publication and goes into search of his writer, Claire must track and catch him with the help of previous muse and current helper Brevity and anxious demon courier Leto.

But what should have been a simple retrieval goes horrifyingly wrong when the terrifyingly angelic Ramiel attacks them, convinced that they contain the Devil’s Bible. The text of the Devil’s Bible can be a powerful weapon in the power struggle between Heaven and Hell, so that it falls towards the librarians to discover a book with the power to reshape the boundaries between Heaven, Hell….and Globe.
