Book 5: The Dark Talent Brandon Sanderson (Farsi)

Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians by Brandon Sanderson is a unique and humorous adventure that takes readers on an unforgettable journey through a world where librarians are the true villains. The story follows Alcatraz Smedry, a twelve-year-old boy who is no ordinary child—he has the remarkable (and often problematic) ability to break things. His life is turned upside down when he learns that his family has a long history of magical talents, and that he is being targeted by an evil organization of librarians bent on controlling knowledge and power. This first book in the Alcatraz series is packed with action, humor, and quirky characters that make it a fun read for both young readers and adults alike. Alcatraz’s journey is filled with outlandish twists and turns, and his interactions with his eccentric family and allies bring a comedic touch to the narrative. With the help of a few quirky companions, including his granddad and a band of eccentric rebels, Alcatraz must fight against the sinister librarians who seek to dominate the world by controlling all knowledge. The book cleverly plays with tropes of adventure and fantasy, but with a self-aware, witty twist. Sanderson’s fast-paced storytelling and humorous narration keep readers engaged, while also exploring themes of family, identity, and the importance of free will. Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians is a delightful mix of fantasy, satire, and adventure that will leave readers eager for more.
