Every named thing can be unnamed. And when it is, the world forgets it was ever there.
Wick is a charity boy at Saint Ledger's, the school where a true name is power and the poor are taught to expect erasure. He has the smallest gift in his year - barely a breath of magic - and one secret no one can ever be allowed to guess: he forgets nothing. Not a face. Not a slight. Not the friend the world swears never existed.
When Sela is unnamed - struck from the Register, smoothed out of every mind but his - Wick becomes the last living memory of a girl four hundred people insist was never born. To carry her back he must climb a Craft he can barely afford, win a trial the strong were built to win, and go down into the drowned dark beneath the school, where something has been fed a name every winter for four hundred years.
But someone inside Saint Ledger's has been doing the erasing all along, and to them a boy who cannot forget is the most dangerous thing in the school. And the only way to save the ones he has lost is to spend the one thing he can never earn back: himself.
The Register of Lost Things is the first book of The Named World - a dark-academia epic for readers of The Name of the Wind, Ninth House, and A Deadly Education.
