About this listen
'The Black Bird Oracle deftly explores the nexus of memory, history, and parenthood - the magic, pain, and promises mothers pass onto their children. Harkness's lush prose makes a fantastical world real enough to touch' JODI PICOULT
Diana Bishop journeys to the darkest places within herself - and her family history - in the highly anticipated fifth novel of the beloved Number One Sunday Times bestselling All Souls series.
The first shadows fall on a Friday afternoon when a single, dying raven lands on the pavement in front of Diana Bishop, harbinger of an invitation that reads, 'It's time you came home, Diana'.
Diana is a witch and scholar; her husband Matthew Clairmont, a vampire. Their intense love for one another awoke the dark powers within her and dissolved the Covenant between the three species - Witch, Daemon and Vampire - that live alongside humans. Now, the governing Congregation has decided it must test the magical powers of their seven-year-old twins, Pip and Becca. Concerned with their safety, Diana decides to forge a different path for her family's future and travels to Ravenswood, the Proctor family home.
There, Diana begins a new era, becoming her great aunt Gwyneth's pupil in higher magic. It's time to confront her family's past - and her own, inescapable desire for greater power.
Number One bestselling author Deborah Harkness returns to her beloved All Souls world with a triumphant novel that sweeps back to the Salem Panic and illuminates Diana's family history in new and thrilling ways.©2024 Deborah Harkness (P)2024 Penguin Audio

wow
i cant wait for book 6 and 7...what a Legacy- not just these books in life but in the story. dianna bishop is in part, all of us. i can tell the author knows what life is like, Marriage and children. to be an Academic and a wife and mother...and gifted with power must complicate anyones world. i love the play between charactors who love and hate the way only family can. i love reading but having a toddler means listening. thank you for giving me this world again.

Always a pleasure
I always knew it was going to be a great read, and it was. What I loved so much was the pace. It wasn't rushed, it took me on a long gentle and wonderful journey through the world of Diana, Matthew and their family once again. I loved it. All of it. And will await the next one and enjoy every moment of that as well. May this series extend for a very long time into the future.

Continued great story telling
Really enjoyable continuation of the world of Diana Bishop and her family. The story wasn’t as long or complex as the previous All Souls trilogy but still highly entertaining. Good blend of familiar characters and exploring new aspects of this world. It feels like the first book in a series so hopefully there will be more books to follow!
Narration is excellent as usual 👏🏻

Magically decadent
Deborah Harkness is a master storyteller who wraps the reader in layers of beautifully written imagery,mystery and history. This book is just as good, if not better than the All Souls Trilogy and I cannot wait for the next one.

Outstanding book
Wow, just wow. An amazing book which continues the Discovery of Witches series. Finally we get to see Diana come into her own more fully as she continues to define herself as a witch. Wonderfully written and narrated. Highly recommend for those who enjoy supernatural fiction!

Addictive and engaging!
Every character in this series feels like an old friend, the author and narrator do a fantastic job of drawing you into the fold. The detail and pace of this installment was so interesting especially with all the new family members and history. Highly recommend the entire series!!!
