Description: Praise for the Magic Ex Libris series: "I picked up the book meaning to read a few pages. My first thought was, 'This is a cool concept.' The second thing I thought was, 'This is really, really clever.' The third thing I thought was, 'I should have gone to sleep three hours ago.'" --Patrick Rothfuss, New York Times -bestselling author "Jim Hines is an engaging writer who is also greatly entertaining, and I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys superior worldbuilding." --Charlaine Harris, New York Times -bestselling author " Hines has just scratched the surface of what he can do. And I can't wait to see what comes next." --Tor.com "[Hines] writes joyously for the delight of his specific market. Codex Born is what would happen if a group of fantasy fans were to hole up in a room trying to develop a system of magic, saying, 'But what if THIS happened?'" -- RT Book Reviews "Nonstop action and laughter power Hines's riveting second journey into the 'peculiar life' of Isaac Vainio.... Like a good pinball game, Isaac's adventures are frantic, fascinating, and more than a little noisy. Hines supplies everything a reader needs--werewolves, ghosts, robot insects, a fire spider that eats candy, and homages to classic SF--for a very good time." -- Publishers Weekly From the Hardcover edition.
