A BOY WITH
EXTRAORDINARY POWERS.
AN ARMY OF DEADLY MONSTERS.
AN EPIC BATTLE FOR THE
FUTURE OF PECULIARDOM.


The adventure that began with Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and continued in Hollow City comes to a thrilling conclusion with Library of Souls.  As the story opens, sixteen-year-old Jacob discovers a powerful new ability, and soon he’s diving through history to rescue his peculiar companions from a heavily guarded fortress.  Accompanying Jacob on his journey are Emma Bloom, a girl with fire at her fingertips, and Addison MacHenry, a dog with a nose for sniffing out lost children.

They’ll travel from modern-day London to the labyrinthine alleys of Devil’s Acre, the most wretched slum in all of Victorian England.  It’s a place where the fate of peculiar children everywhere will be decided once and for all.  Like its predecessors, Library of Souls blends thrilling fantasy with never-before-published vintage photography to create a one-of-a-kind reading experience.

RANSOM RIGGS grew up in Florida but makes his home in the land of peculiar children - Los Angeles.  He was raised on a steady diet of ghost stories and British comedy, which probably explains the novels he writes.  There's a nonzero chance he's in your house right now, watching you from underneath the bed.  (Go ahead and check.  We'll wait.)  If not, you can always find him on Twitter @ransomriggs.

"The photographs and text work together brilliantly to create an unforgettable story."
- John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars, on Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
