Product Description
Book Description
The next roller-coaster installment in the adventures of Zoey Redbird at the House of Night school for vampyres.
Product Description
Zoey needs a break after some serious excitement. Sadly, the House of Night school for vampyres doesn't feature breaks on its curriculum - even for a High Priestess in training and her gang. Plus juggling three guys is no stress reliever, especially when one is a sexy Warrior so into protecting Zoey that he's sensing her emotions. Wider stresses lurk too, and the dark force in Tulsa's tunnels is spreading. Could Stevie Rae be responsible for more than a group of misfit fledglings? And Aphrodite's visions warn Zoey to stay away from the immortal Kalona and his dark allure - but they also show that only Zoey can stop him. She's not exactly keen to meet up, but if Zoey don't go to Kalona he'll exact a fiery vengeance on those closest to her. She just has to find the courage to do what's necessary, or everything that's important to her will be destroyed. - Not suitable for younger readers

WOOOOAH!! Fabby absolutely wonderful!!
This book is so engaging that all you want to do is keep turning the pages until you know all of the wonders and twists P.C and Kristin Cast came up with!!
Soooo, Zoey won the battle against Neferet and Kalona and everyone is all happy and joyful, that is until Zoey is woken up by her own screaming after another visit in her dreams by Kalona and at the same time Aphrodite is screaming awake after another gruesome vision!! It all starts to happen to Zoey and her gang after that with no hope of stopping.
Terrible things keep happening from Stevie Rae's wonderful and awful decision to Zoey's crisis with her boyfriends (which by the end of the book is solved - but believe me you will not expect it, have a pack of tissues next to you!) and her intimate dreams with Kalona to Aphrodite's terrifying visions to Stevie Rea's undead life in peril danger (and the twist which will have you on tenterhooks - will she survive??) and you might think they get better but then it all spirals out of control and what you're left with is an unbelievable cliff hanger of an ending - seriously you will soooo not expect it until it's happened!!
Do NOT focus on the negative criticisms that this book has somehow attained, just READ IT and make your own decision!!

Both me and my friend started this book yesterday and finished today.
We loved it, its a shame we'll have to wait till next year for Burned.
I would recommend these books, they are great read, and hand me shouting
at several points, gasping at others and tearing up like with the other book,
my hands were cold and clammy at the by the end.
Now that's what a good book should do to you=]

When I first started reading the first HoN book, I was completely confused. The way it's written suggests it's only for immature very young teens. All the books use such childish expressions and are littered with ridiculous comments in the narrative, often in brackets (gross. eww. Whatever!) etc. Yet, the way they all go on about blood drinking and sex is surely for a much older age group? I remember reading somewhere (unfortunately I can't remember where so I don't know how credible this is) that Kristen Cast's main role in the books was to make sure the teen language was realistic. Unfortunately, between them, the authors have missed by a mile, resulting in the above.
But, they have to be forgiven. Because what they have created in the form of the HoN novels are some of the most gripping stories I've come across. And I read a LOT. No matter how terribly written these books are in some ways, the story is just so engaging. The only exception is the first book (Marked) where the beginning is very forced as the authors struggle to establish the foundations of the world that the HoN is set in. To use a cliche, I couldn't put Tempted down!
The first five books have set up this book beautifully. The story is head and shoulders above the rest in every way. A lot of significant events occur in this book. The story is more multi-dimensional than the rest, mainly because the story is not all told from Zoey's perspective. It jumps around among the other characters, also giving the advantage that the book has much less of the annoying childish narrative as I mention in my first paragraph.
So if you liked the first five HoN books, you should love this one.

A little slower
This book is a little slower than the first books, but they keep in the right mind, and the series continues without too much new input.
