In 2016, the world's oldest existing library reopened in Fes, Morocco. It opened for the first time in the 9th Century. These shrines to the written word date back even further, and continue to be built today. They're a place where some of the oldest written texts are preserved and some of the newest technology connects visitors with vast amounts of knowledge. Libraries are changing, but, as places that are fundamentally free and open to all, they're also staying the same. Libraries of the World explores the most stunning examples, but it also explores how varied the idea of a library can be. It can be a grand Baroque hall with leather-bound tomes or a mid-century masterpiece, but it can just as easily be a few shelves in a repurposed phone booth.

In the city of Elversult, a human-elf thief and a crippled ex-warrior find themselves pitted against the Purple Masks, the Cult of the Dragon, and other nefarious foes Among the dark streets of Elversult move thieves and cutthroats—and they don't like independent operators like Lhasha Moonsliver. While on the run from the Purple Masks, she crosses paths with former White Shield mercenary Corin One-hand, whose drunken ways and injuries have not completely diminished his skills as a swordsman. But when Lhasha hires him to be her bodyguard, hoping her gnomish mentor will restore Corin’s lost arm, she gets far more than she bargained for. Together, the unlikely duo must battle the thieves' guild, the Cult of the Dragon, and other, darker foes. And Corin will have to remember the proud warrior he once was.
