Editor's Notes
 
The circus arrives without warning. No announcements precede it. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not.' So begins Erin Morgenstern’s tale of rival magicians, forbidden love and an enchanted moonlit circus.

More than ten years since it was first published, The Night Circus continues to enthrall readers young and old. Our edition is a tribute to this beguiling modern fairytale. It is outfitted in red, black and gold livery, with a Cirque des Rêves ticket on the scarlet slipcase, candle-lit endpapers and seven intricate illustrations by Cristina Bencina.
Synopsis
 
When the Night Circus appears without warning, its gates open to a world of wonder: illusions, acrobats and enchantments beyond imagination. But behind the dazzling spectacle lies a fierce competition between two young magicians, Celia and Marco, bound by a deadly wager made by their masters. As their rivalry transforms into a forbidden love, the stakes grow higher, and the fate of the circus — and everyone in it — hangs in the balance. Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus is an intoxicating blend of romance, mystery and magic, where every act hides a secret, and the show must always go on.​
