    About this audiobook

    From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson and Janci Patterson comes Bastille vs. the Evil Librarians, the thrilling conclusion to the Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians saga.

    As a Knight of Crystallia, I, Bastille, swore to protect the Smedry clan from the evil Librarians. (And believe me, screwups like them constantly need protecting.) But when Alcatraz Smedry got strapped to an altar of outdated encyclopedias to be
    sacrificed to the dark gods, I arrived too late—and instead his father took his place.

    Now Alcatraz is a blubbering mess, so it’s up to me to lead the charge against his father’s killer: Biblioden, founder of the evil Librarians—I was sure he died centuries ago!—who’s back to complete his goal of world domination. Now he’s
    going to use the dark powers he gained from that sacrifice against everyone not under evil Librarian control. Being burned up from the inside is not how I plan to die, so I’d better figure out some way to stop him or we’re toast!

    I know Alcatraz is wrong when he swears he’s no hero. But when a hero falls short, that’s the time for everyone else to step up and do what needs to be done.

      Thank you to Brandon Sanderson, Janci Patterson, Macmillan-Tor/Forge, Starscape, and Netgalley for an advanced reader copy (ARC) of "Bastille vs. the Evil Librarians" (Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians #6) for an honest review.

      I continue to madly love everything and anything Sanderson writes or has a hand in, and the same goes for Janci Patterson, whose writing I got to know through Sanderson's spin-off Cytonic novella series writing by her a well. I love that this story changed to being from the point of Bastille. I laughed and felt sad with her and her prideful comments, especially against having "those kinds of feelings yet," and fell in love with her so much more.

      This was such a satisfying conclusion, and I hope to get a copy of the full series for each of my siblings with kids. I will definitely be advising it to our school librarians, as well.
    • 5/5
      Great finish to the series. Last book was a little slow, but this one picked up. I really enjoyed Bastille's perspective.
    • 5/5
      It's really refreshing to get her voice and perspective after alcatraz's entertaining yet, after a while, aging style. But, it's also frustrating see the way that, even in this book series that openly acknowledges tropes & stereotypes (while usually still falling into them), you have this major, amazing character who is doing much of the work who is just fawning over the main male, and everyone is acknowledging him as the hero rather than seeing the true team effort. It's one thing to have this character be crushing on him or just encouraging him, but constantly telling him how "he's the hero of this story" and diminishing her own importance to the reader is just kinda... tired. It makes sense for her character not to be self-involved, and she's writing this FOR HIM, but that's honestly kinda the point in how these stories are structured and characters are developed. Give me a Bastille who understands and fights for others to recognize her importance, and give me a cast who acknowledges that it's not just "boy hero is super important and heroic." It's like the writers know this trope and believe that by just knowing it exists, they can fall into it and it'll be perfectly fine, because they're doing it consciously. Which, yenno, is much of the series, and which I really appreciated and found funny much of the time.
