About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
If you could open a door to anywhere, where would you go?
In New York City, bookseller Cassie Andrews is living an unassuming life when she is given a gift by a favourite customer. It's a book - an unusual book, full of strange writing and mysterious drawings. And at the very front there is a handwritten message to Cassie, telling her that this is the Book of Doors, and that any door is every door.
What Cassie is about to discover is that the Book of Doors is a special book that bestows an extraordinary powers on whoever possesses it, and soon she and her best friend Izzy are exploring all that the Book of Doors can do, swept away from their quiet lives by the possibilities of travelling to anywhere they want.
But the Book of Doors is not the only magical book in the world. There are other books that can do wondrous and dreadful things when wielded by dangerous and ruthless individuals - individuals who crave what Cassie now possesses.
Suddenly Cassie and Izzy are confronted by violence and danger, and the only person who can help them is, it seems, Drummond Fox. He is a man fleeing his own demons - a man with his own secret library of magical books that he has hidden away in the shadows for safekeeping. Because there is a nameless evil out there that is hunting them all...
Because some doors should never be opened.

Book of doors - bloody brilliant
Absolutely loved this book. The story was unique and submersible, there was no waffling, lagging or downtime it was fast paced and brilliant. This needs to be a book series and a tv show or movie.

Fantastic story and reader!
I loved this book and all its twists and turns! I had to binge the last 3 hours because I was totally hooked and am sad it’s over. I will probably start again at the beginning.
This is the first book I have ever bought both a physical copy and the audio book. It’s really that enjoyable.
The reader was the best I’ve heard since Davina Porter! Her accents are awesome, especially the Scottish.
I’ll be looking out for more from both Author and reader.

Original and absorbing
I was torn between not wanting to put this down and not wanting it to end. Wonderful original story, well paced with enough twists and turns to be engaging. Would love to see it adapted into a movie or series.

Gripping, thrilling and full of adventure
I usually don’t read books set in our world. But thought I’d give this one a try and I’m glad I did. The story is not as straight forward as you’re led to believe. Gripping twists, turns and an adventure across time.
Love, loss and the reality that you don’t always get what you want. But what time allows.
Highly recommend.

Magical escape
A lovely light read, weaved with magic and beauty of the precipice a doorway can inspire.
