THE ARCHIVED - VICTORIA SCHWAB TASCHENBUCH

Imagine a place where the dead rest on shelves like books. Each body has a story to tell– a
life seen in pictures that only Librarians can read. The dead are called Histories  and the
vast realm in which they rest is the Archive. Da first brought Mackenzie Bishop here four years
ago  when she was twelve years old  frightened but determined to prove herself. Now Da is dead
and Mac has grown into what he once was: a ruthless Keeper  tasked with stopping often-violent
Histories from waking up and getting out. Because of her job  she lies to the people she loves
and she knows fear for what it is: a useful tool for staying alive. Being a Keeper isn't just
dangerous-it's a constant reminder of those Mac has lost. Da's death was hard enough  but now
that her little brother is gone too  Mac starts to wonder about the boundary between living and
dying  sleeping and waking. In the Archive  the dead must never be disturbed. And yet  someone
is deliberately altering Histories  erasing essential chapters. Unless Mac can piece together
what remains  the Archive itself might crumble and fall. In this haunting  richly imagined
novel  Victoria Schwab reveals the thin lines between past and present  love and pain  trust
and deceit  unbearable loss and hardwon redemption. Advance praise for THE ARCHIVED: This
gripping supernatural thriller features nuanced characters navigating a complex moral universe.
