***Shortlisted for the Hugo, Nebula and Locus awards for Best
Novel*** 'A gorgeous, aching love letter to stories, storytellers
and the doors they lead us through . . . absolutely enchanting'
Christina Henry, bestselling author of Alice ACCORDING TO JANUARY
SCALLER, THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO RUN AWAY FROM YOUR OWN STORY, AND
THAT'S TO SNEAK INTO SOMEONE ELSE'S . . . In a sprawling mansion
filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity
herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr Locke, she feels little
different from the artefacts that decorate the halls: carefully
maintained, largely ignored and utterly out of place. But her quiet
existence is shattered when she stumbles across a strange book. A
book that carries the scent of other worlds and tells a tale of
secret doors, of love, adventure and danger. Each page reveals more
impossible truths about the world, and January discovers a story
increasingly entwined with her own. 'One of the most unique works
of fiction I've ever read' Tamora Pierce, New York Times
bestselling author 'A gorgeously written story of love and longing,
of what it means to lose your place in the world and then have the
courage to find it again' Kat Howard, author of An Unkindness of
Magicians 'Devastatingly good, a sharp, delicate nested tale of
worlds within worlds, stories within stories and the realm-cracking
power of words' Melissa Albert, author of The Hazel Wood 'The Ten
Thousand Doors of January healed hurts I didn't even know I had. An
unbearably beautiful story about growing up, and everything we
fight to keep along the way' Amal El-Mohtar, Hugo Award-winning
author 'Beautiful, achingly gorgeous ode to storytelling, magic and
family' S. A. Chakraborty, author of The City of Brass
