Lovely adventure! Sword fighting, a secret librarian society that fights for the right to publish books and for free speech, time travel, action, bad guys, a magical library hub that connects libraries in all times and places and more! When Dorrie and her brother Marcus chase their friend Rosa's loose mongoose into the library, they wind up in Petrarch's library, the magical library hub to libraries in a variety of times and places. Unable to return home immediately, they stay with the secret librarian society for four weeks although no time passes at home in Passaic. They meet Socrates and Dorrie gets sword fighting lessons from Cyrano de Bergerac in a manner rather like the Karate Kid. Lots of action, adventure, plot twists and fun! I received this book free to review from Netgalley and I highly recommend it.
