具体描述
It begins with absence and desire. It begins with blood and fear. It begins with a discovery of witches. When historian Diana Bishop opens an alchemical manuscript in the Bodleian Library, it's an unwelcome intrusion of magic into her carefully ordered life. Though Diana is a witch of impeccable lineage, the violent death of her parents while she was still a child convinced her that human fear is more potent than any witchcraft. Now Diana has unwittingly exposed herself to a world she's kept at bay for years; one of powerful witches, creative, destructive daemons and long-lived vampires. Sensing the significance of Diana's discovery, the creatures gather in Oxford, among them the enigmatic Matthew Clairmont, a vampire genticist. Diana is inexplicably drawn to Matthew and, in a shadowy world of half-truths and old enmities, ties herself to him without fully understanding the ancient line they are crossing. As they begin to unlock the secrets of the manuscript and their feelings for each other deepen, so the fragile balance of peace unravels...

##又是一本情节拖拖拉拉的书~电视剧改编得比较大，但还是比较尊重原著（选角除外）~看得实在太累了~
##Guilty pleasure...等不了英剧每周一集40分钟，只好借助原著全程带mg脸看完。作者是个有少女心的历史学家，跟文学并没有什么关系。

##情节和人物塑造都乏善可陈。
##我想弃书了 。。。好老套的剧情
##简直是guilty pleasure..看不下去了，还是等着看古迪吧...
##🔮魔法强大，让我又开始读原版系列了，上次一套还是哈利波特，纳尼亚那套有点浅搁置了，之后要把魔戒三部曲读完，谁让作者是语言学家呢！哦哟跑偏了……这套作者是南加州大学历史教授写的，最近英剧开播，也是让我来读原著的动力！当然，小说是第一人称叙述，英剧编剧肯定不同角度修改，还是会有不同感受滴，总之，又能过把魔法瘾了！🔮
