The Book of Doors by Gareth Brown
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This really hits the spot when it comes to fantastical magical action that just so happens to be rooted in modern realism. I feel like this is just about a bulls-eye if you like Claire North's work, really focused on characters and characterization while throwing a curve-ball in the form of books that bestow all kinds of magical powers.

Mind you, it's our world, but the magical aspects are still hard-core.

There are many more books besides the Book of Doors, but this one is the most fascinating one of all. It literally opens a door to anywhere - or any time. It's kinda OP. But the other people with different books are also rather OP, so we've pretty much got a book-lover's dream AND fantasy all wrapped in one.

Fun stuff. Worth the read.
