New York Times bestsellers P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast return with a new duology set in a dark and magickal world filled with incredible danger and irresistible romance.

Wren Nightingale isn't supposed to have any powers. Born of magickal parents but not under a moon sign, she was destined for life as a Mundane--right up until she starts glowing on her eighteenth birthday. In a heartbeat, Wren's life is turned upside down, and she's suddenly leaving her home for the mystical Academia de la Luna--a secret magickal school on a hidden island off the Seattle coast.

Lee Young has always known about his future at the Academia. He has one goal: pass the trials, impress the Moon Council, and uphold his family's reputation. But he wasn't expecting to be attending alongside the girl he's been secretly in love with for as long as he can remember.

As Wren and Lee are thrown into the Academia's grueling trials, they quickly learn there's something different--and dangerous--about the school this year. Wren will have to navigate a web of secrets, prophecies--and murder. And Lee will have to decide who to protect--his family's legacy, or the girl he loves.

Хантер и Мерси – сестры-близнецы и настоящие потомственные ведьмы. В далеком 17 веке их прародительницу Сару Гуд приговорили к смерти за колдовство. Но той удалось сбежать благодаря собственной силе. С тех пор род ведьм Гудвилля живет и здравствует, а в их крови течет особая магия.

Долгое время девушки росли как обычные школьницы. Но вот настал их черед узнать, что означает быть Стражами пяти врат Гудвилля – древних порталов, разделяющих наш мир и Подземное царство.

Когда мать Хантер и Мерси погибает во время очередного ведьминского ритуала, девушки клянутся отомстить за ее смерть.

Вероятно, их заклинания позволили одному из монстров прорваться в человеческий мир. Теперь сестрам предстоит объединиться, чтобы обуздать древнее зло, которое вот-вот поглотит их маленький городок. Но хватит ли на это магии? Или жертва может оказаться непомерной, а судьба разлучит сестер навсегда?

Double double, twins spell trouble…

Hunter and Mercy Goode are twin witches, direct descendants of the founder of their town of Goodeville. As their ancestors have done before them, it is now time for the twins to learn what it means to be Gatekeepers–the protectors of the Gates to different underworlds, ancient portals between their world and realms where mythology rules and nightmares come to life.

When their mother becomes the first victim in a string of murders, the devastated sisters vow to avenge her death. But it will take more than magic to rein in the ancient mythological monsters who’ve infected their peaceful town.

Now Hunter and Mercy must come together and accept their destiny or risk being separated for good.

No touching today for a healthy tomorrow.

For fifty years, the Key Corporation has defended humanity against a deadly virus that spreads through touch. Lovers don't kiss, or even hold hands. Personal boundaries are valued above all. Break the laws, and you'll face execution.

Elodie, a talented young nurse, believes in the mission of the Key and has never questioned the laws that control her life. But Elodie is forced to break the rules when she sets out in search of a terminal patient who goes missing while under her care.

From the outside, it seems like Aiden was given everything he could want from the Key -- a purpose, an education, and a future. But Aiden knows more than he's letting on, and the dark secrets he's keeping could tear the Key's strict society apart.

When Elodie and Aiden's lives collide, the fallout will be devastating. What do you do when the brutal system that once kept you safe hunts you down?

Фостер Стюарт, дерзкая рыжеволосая красавица, не похожа на своих сверстников: она никогда не жила "нормальной" жизнью подростка, постоянно переезжая из штата в штат с приемной матерью. С другой стороны, обычные люди восемнадцати лет не умеют управлять облаками и воздушными течениями. Голубоглазый брюнет Тейт Тейлор, капитан школьной команды по футболу, напротив, никуда не выезжал из родного городка в Мисссури и до встречи с Фостер не задумывался о паранормальном. Да, у него зрение как у ястреба, но это, наверное, просто природный дар?… Смертоносный торнадо соединяет их вместе – ураган становится началом опасных приключений.…

Приближается восемнадцатилетие Зои Редберд, а ее лучшие друзья, год назад окончившие Обитель Ночи, разбросаны по разным уголкам страны. Втайне от своей возлюбленной Старк собирает всю компанию на торжество в Обитель Ночи Талсы, где Зои занимает пост Верховной жрицы. Тем временем в городе начинают появляться странные темные знаки – причастна ли к этому коварная Неферет? Теперь вновь воссоединившиеся друзья должны не только отметить праздник Зои, но и спасти Талсу от надвигающейся тьмы.

Преданные поклонники "Обители Ночи" не будут разочарованы возвращением в вампирскую вселенную, наполненную магией, жутью и, конечно же, романтикой. А с помощью краткого гида по миру "Обители Ночи" даже те, кто не читал оригинальную серию, смогут легко погрузиться в новые приключения. И абсолютно точно будут ждать продолжения.

Впервые на русском языке!

Foster Stewart knows she's different. Her life has never been "normal." Talking to plants and controlling cloud formations aren't things most seventeen year olds are into. Tate "Nighthawk" Taylor is perfect. Star quarterback and all around dreamy boy next door he never thought about his "extra" abilities. What quarterback wouldn't want night vision? That's not weird, right? It's cool!

But on the night of their first meeting a deadly tornado brings them together and awakens their true abilities - the power to control the element air. Unbeknown to Tate and Foster, they are the first in a group of teens that were genetically manipulated before birth to bond with the elements. Which truly sucks for Foster, as she has to face the fact that Dr. Rick Stewart, her beloved scientist father, betrayed her and now wants to use her and the others for his own nefarious world domination plot.

Foster and Tate must stop Dr. Stewart and his minions before he destroys their lives and the world.

Казалось, переезд в вампирскую школу Обитель Ночи принес Зои Редберд положительные перемены: она обзавелась компанией друзей, стала лидером элитной группы Темные Дочери и влюбилась – причем сразу в двух парней. Но внезапно спокойную жизнь нарушает череда жутких убийств: кто-то открыл охоту на подростков-невампиров, и следы убийцы ведут в Обитель Ночи. Пытаясь докопаться до истины, Зои начинает понимать, что ей и ее друзьям грозит страшная опасность…

Это история о мире, очень похожем на наш, за исключением одного: рядом с людьми живут вампиры, которые являются полноправными членами общества. Вампирами не рождаются – ими становятся, получив Метку. Когда начинается превращение, у новичка есть лишь два пути: принять свою новую суть, отправившись на обучение в закрытую вампирскую школу Обитель Ночи, или умереть. Так в Обители Ночи оказывается шестнадцатилетняя Зои Монтгомери. Впрочем, она получила свою Метку не совсем обычным способом, ведь ее избрала сама богиня вампиров – Никс. Теперь Зои предстоит обживаться в новом доме и искать свое место в мире вампиров, который на поверку оказывается…

The coauthor of the New York Times best-selling House of Night series returns with the mesmerizing second book in the Escaped series.

In order to save his home and the mortal realm from assured destruction, Alek, son of the Furies, has been charged with recapturing the souls of those who escaped Tartarus into the mortal realm. But he can't do it alone.

Eva has discovered that she has powers beyond her comprehension and a destiny to fulfill - and that there are people who will stop at nothing to destroy her.

Now, in Scarlet Rain, the Nosoi - the spirits of illness - have been unleashed on the mortal realm, releasing a plague as clever and adaptable as it is insidious. Alek and Eva must capture and banish the Nosoi back to their underworld prison - but Eva has yet to harness the powers needed to defeat such a powerful enemy, and Alek sustains catastrophic wounds in the attempt. They must rely on detective James Graham and Eva's best friend, Bridget, if they are to slow the plague. But can mere mortals come through in the face of such overwhelming peril?

Eons ago, Sirens were exiled from the Mortal Realm, held captive in a cove at the edge of Tartarus. They are beautiful beyond imagination, but deadly beyond compare. And they have set their sights on breaking free.
They risk everything to sneak out of Tartarus and ascend to the forbidden Mortal Realm with one mission―mate with human men to dilute their cursed bloodline and form a new race of Sirens, free from their prison in the Underworld. But for a Siren to become pregnant, she must revert to her True Form, a horrifying sight that drives men to madness, and makes killing them a mercy. In modern San Francisco, the Sirens blend in; each woman has a singular goal, and each man she meets is her prey…
Melody Seirina has always been different. She doesn’t believe that she’ll be able to bring herself to take a human life, even when the fate of her people rests on her willingness to do so. She’s even more convinced when she meets Dean, a charming cop who sees a loving future with her. Their romance threatens two worlds, the one the Sirens fled from, and the one that will destroy them if they can’t complete their mission as soon as possible. Melody will have to make a decision―risk the future of her people or follow her heart.

Eva has discovered that she has been both blessed and cursed with powers beyond her comprehension. With a destiny to fulfill, she cannot escape the beings who will stop at nothing to destroy her.

The door to the massive New York Times best-selling House of Night series has closed. Now Kristin Cast kicks down a new door to welcome her millions of fans to her latest sizzling series.

There is a world that runs parallel to our own, a world in which the souls of the damned are caged, where they are looked over by the furies, and where they spend eternity in torment, mirroring the devastation and mayhem they created when alive.

Someone has opened the cage.

The worst of terrors have crossed the barrier that separates our world from theirs, and the furies send a great, albeit untested, warrior - their only son, Alek - to bring those souls back. He is young and handsome, headstrong and impulsive, and he won't be able to do it alone.

Eva has grown up beautiful and beloved but surrounded by secrets. First she will be hunted in an ancient feud that will threaten her life. Then she will become the hunter.

With the police closing in and two worlds on the verge of crumbling around them, Alek and Eva must find each other, discover the limits of their powers, and work together to save everything they hold dear, including one another. Blending elements of mythology with the dazzling storytelling that her fans have devoured in the House of Night series, Kristin Cast weaves a spellbinding and passionate tale that starts a thrilling new series with an explosive charge.

Der letzte Band der weltweit erfolgreichsten Vampyr-Serie aller Zeiten

Die Göttin der Dunkelheit zeigt ihr wahres Gesicht
Showdown in Tulsa: Neferet, die Göttin der Dunkelheit, hat allen ihr wahres Gesicht gezeigt. Sie ist jetzt die uneingeschränkte Herrscherin in Tulsa und im House of Night. Niemand – weder Mensch noch Vampyr - kann ihr mehr gefährlich werden. Nur mit Hilfe der alten Magie könnte man sie noch stoppen. Zoey Redbird ist die Einzige, die damit umgehen kann. Wer wird diesen allerletzten großen Kampf gewinnen?

The final electrifying installment in the #1 New York Times bestselling vampire series Zoey Redbird is in trouble. Having released the Seer Stone to Aphrodite, and surrendered herself to the Tulsa Police, she has isolated herself from her friends and mentors, determined to face the punishment she deserves—even if that means her body will reject the change, and begin to die. Only the love of those closest to her can save her from the Darkness in her spirit; but a terrible evil has emerged from the shadows, more powerful than ever… Neferet has finally made herself known to mortals. Crowning herself a Dark Goddess, she is evil unleashed…

Побежденная, но не уничтоженная Ауроксом, бывшая Верховная жрица Дома Ночи, бессмертная Неферет, с помощью Тьмы собирает силы, чтобы обрести привычный человеческий облик. В этом ей помогают воспоминания о прежней жизни, в которых Неферет полностью раскрывается, являя себе самой и миру свою истинную сущность. Синие и Красные недолетки по-прежнему вынуждены жить в школе, что грозит гибелью каждому из них. Одиннадцатый том серии-бестселлера «Дом Ночи».

There was a terrible shriek, and the Neferet apparition rushed forward. It surged from our circle, like a black tide. With the sound of a thousand skittering spiders, the spectre fled through the main entrance of the school and then disappeared completely.
Drastically altered after her fall. Neferet is clinging to life with one goal in mind: to regain her strength. But she's still capable of deadly harm, and her guest for vengeance will wreak havoc at the House of Night.
