The Antiquarian: The Bird and the Red Door

By: Martini, Alicia

The Antiquarian - Book One

Elena grew up in her uncle's antique shop, surrounded by strange objects no one could quite explain. To her, they were just curiosities.
Until the night she discovers that one of them is a portal.
Hidden in the basement is an ancient mirror made from the legendary Silver Walnut tree-wood capable of opening doors between worlds. When Elena steps through it, she finds the Interlude, a mysterious city that exists between realities, and beyond it the magical kingdom of Eudoria.
But Elena didn't just discover another world.
She stepped into a war.
A secret cult is trying to awaken the Primordials-ancient entities older than time itself. If they succeed, the fragile balance that connects the worlds will collapse, and every realm tied to the Interlude will fall into chaos.
With the help of an unlikely group of allies-a sharp-tongued talking cardinal, a powerful mage with secrets of her own, and a battle-worn traveler-Elena must journey across dangerous worlds in search of the power needed to stop them.
Dragons. Elves. Forgotten magic. Portals between universes.
To seal the Primordials forever, they must create a totem capable of imprisoning gods.
But some magic demands a sacrifice.
And saving the worlds may cost Elena everything.
