Included titles & brief overviews
-
Shadow of the Wind — Hidden in the heart of the old city of Barcelona is the "Cemetery of Lost Books," a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles. One cold morning in 1945, a man brings his 10-year-old son Daniel to this secret place; Daniel is allowed to choose one book from the shelves and pulls out a novel that will change his life.
-
Angel's Game — In an abandoned mansion at the heart of Barcelona, David Martin earns his living writing sensationalist novels under a pseudonym. A survivor of a troubled childhood, he hides in the world of books and spins baroque tales about the city's underworld — until reality and fiction begin to collide.

Labyrinth of the Spirits — Daniel Sempere, now a grown man and proprietor of Sempere & Sons bookshop, faces the legacy of the extraordinary novel he found as a child. This concluding entry expands the saga into the dark political and cultural landscape of late-1950s Barcelona.
