The Night Circus (2011) is set in a mysterious black-and-white circus that appears without warning and is only open at night. Two young magicians are bound in a competition they do not fully understand, using the circus as their arena. The Starless Sea (2019) follows a graduate student who discovers a book that contains a story about his own childhood, leading him to a hidden underground library full of stories, honey, and lost things. Both novels are known for their lush, layered prose and their worlds that feel like places you could get lost in.
