The Secret Chapter takes what was built in The Mortal Word – the burgeoning but reluctant development of relationships between Fae and dragon – as well as the ongoing relationships between Librarian and Fae and puts them all together in a way that necessitated close contact and trust.
One of the most enjoyable facets of Cogman’s ‘The Invisible Library’ series has been the growing intricacy to the relationships between Librarian, Fae, and dragon. What makes any good heist movie transcend the ensemble, however, is the characters, and when your heist team is made up of two dragons, four Fae, and a Librarian … well, George Clooney or Michael Caine, eat your heart out! As Genevieve Cogman wrote in the introductory Acknowledgements for The Secret Chapter, “There had to be a heist at some point in the story, didn’t there?” After all the detective genre, spy, and theft books, it was inevitable that Cogman’s brilliant ‘The Invisible Library’ series would go on an ‘Ocean’s 11’ style heist.
