Summary
An action-packed literary adventure! The Burning Page is the third title in Genevieve Cogman's clever and exciting The Invisible Library series.
When it's your job to save the day – where do you start?
Librarian spy Irene has standards to maintain, especially while on probation. And absconding from a mission via a besieged building doesn't look good. But when her escape route home goes up in flames, what's a spy to do?
Even worse, it seems Gates back to the Library are malfunctioning across dozens of worlds and Irene's nemesis Alberich is responsible – with plans to annihilate the Library itself.
Irene and assistant Kai are posted to St Petersburg, to help combat this threat. Here Alberich emerges, as Irene tries to save her friend Vale and foil assassination attempts. Then one incredibly dangerous opportunity to save the Library emerges. Saving herself would be a bonus . . .
Irene's adventures feature stolen books, secret agents and forbidden societies – think Doctor Who but with librarian spies!
Continue the bookish magic with The Lost Plot, the fourth entry in The Invisible Library series. Genevieve is also the author of the Sunday Times bestselling Scarlet - which reimagines the tale of the Scarlet Pimpernel, but with vampires, mages and magic . . .
Critic reviews
Brilliant and so much fun. Skulduggery, Librarians, and Dragons – Cogman keeps upping the ante on this delightful series! (Charles Stross, author of the Laundry Files, including The Atrocity Archives)

Loved it!
This series would make a great dramatic film or box set. The excellent narration from Kristin does help with the imagination along with the descriptive and well defined writing by Genevieve.
Thank you both.

random find which is amazing
stumbled across the first audible free in my local library.
Needless to say, I know where my credits are going now whilst waiting for Simon scarrow to release other books. different genre but from someone that was brought up on Harry Potter and lord of the rings, I would say this is a lovely medium between the two.

Another in the journey
Very enjoyable, narration superb. Dwells a little too long on Irene's introspection perhaps. Character interdynamic tension building nicely.

I do love these books
Although I have to say I struggle with the narrator who I feel detracts considerably. She’s not fluent and some of her voices for characters are very odd. I feel the books would be so much better if they had a different narrator or you actually read the paper version as opposed to listening to them.
The stories themselves are a great romp!

narrated to perfection
I love this series. and the narrator is amazing, she provides such a vivid image of the action. Irene might be one of my favourite book characters, she is a fierce, strong, sensible woman ,but who also believes in friendship.
