The Library at Mount Char

Carolyn's not so different from the other people around her. She likes guacamole and cigarettes and steak. She knows how to use a phone. After all, she was a normal American herself once, before she and the others were taken in by the man they called Father. In the years since then, she and her adopted siblings have studied the books in his Library and learned some of the secrets of his power. Now, Father is missing—perhaps even dead—and the Library that holds his secrets stands unguarded. And with it, control over all of creation.

Scott Hawkins lives in Atlanta with his wife and a large pack of foster dogs. When not writing he enjoys woodwork, cooking long and impractical recipes, and playing fetch with his dogs. He works as a computer programmer. The Library at Mount Char is his first novel.
