Hi Cara,
Today I am reviewing book 8 in Genevieve Cogman The Invisible Library Series, The Untold Story. The previous books in the series are;
- The Invisible Library
- The Masked City
- The Burning Page
- The Lost Plot
- The Mortal Word
- The Secret Chapter
- The Dark Archive
Librarian Spy Irene is heading into danger. Not for the first time, but could this be her last? She’s tasked with a terrifyingly dangerous solo mission to eliminate an old enemy, which must be kept secret at all costs. But even more troubling news emerges. Multiple worlds are disappearing – and the Library may have something to do with it.
Determined to uncover the truth behind the vanished worlds, Irene and her friends must descend into the unplumbed depths of the Library. And what they find will change everything they know. This may be Irene’s most dangerous assignment of her hazardous career.

The Untold Story bring this current storyline to an end. When I started reading The Untold Story is currently the last planned story for this series. But as I continued reading it made sense to end the series with this book. Although Genevive's website has given me hope that I might read more books with these characters in the future.Â
PLOT:Â To truly understand and get the most from the story I believe you need to read the other books in the series. As storylines are wrapped up, secrets are revealed. I enjoyed the build-up to the dramatic ending. Also that we get to see characters from the previous book. Overall a good way to bring this story to an end.Â
CHARACTER:Â I have always enjoyed Irene, Kai and Val as characters. They make a great team and have a surprising friendship. It was also nice seeing Irene having these relationships as previously she has been a bit of a lone wolf.Â
WRITING STYLE:Â Genevieve Cogman has a writing style that I find easy to read, as well as keeps me engaged.
OVERALL:Â Â A really enjoyable story with action, Sci-fi, romance and historical elements that kept this book nerd very happy.
My rating for The Untold Story is 4.5 out of 5.Â
