The 113th Assistant Librarian is a visionary, fantasy and quite frankly amazing novel. When timid Oliver becomes the 113th Assistant Librarian he thinks of it as a boring job. But little does he know – with the death of his mentor on his first day, these books aren’t just any old stories. They hold power, magic, wisdom. Danger. Taking you through a whirlwind of magic, adaptation and adventure this is one of the best books I’ve ever read. I would rate this book 4.6 out of 5 and recommend this to all young readers.
