Praise for 'Old Magic': 'A confident debut that announces the arrival of a bright, lively new voice' TES Praise for 'The Named': 'Another gripping teenage novel from the author of Old Magic.

Product Description
A dark and compelling sequel to "The Named", "The Dark" crackles with suspense and intrigue. Hell-bent on avenging the death of one of their best, the Order of Chaos gain the upper hand in their battle against the Guardians. As the Order's attempts to change history bear fruit, Ethan and Isabel notice subtle changes in their daily lives as an altered past impacts on the future. Before they can confront the Order, Ethan and Isabel, joined by Isabel's brother Matt, must risk everything to travel through a dark world and save Arkarian, without whom the future looks bleak. Told from the perspectives of Isabel and Arkarian, the edgy relationships and pacy narrative make for an unputdownable read.

when i read the named i couldn't wait to get the dark so i could continue the story of ethan and isobel - two characters i had come to like. The dark is suspenseful and intriguing full of humour and love and loyalty. A brilliant sequal to the named. It picks up on Arkarians and Isobels viewpoints and expertly tells a love filled, emotionful, loyal,loving,exciting and intriguing tale of a fantasy story that could actually be happening and we just haven't realised it. If i could give it more than 5 stars i would. Again Marianne Curley takes my breath away with her superb sequel the dark - so good it kept me up half the night because i couldn't put it down!

This is the second book in the Guardians of time trilogy, and it's even more explosive than the Named! If you are a fan of teenage fantasy you NEEEEED to read this book.It's smart, funny, thrilling and impossible to put down. I can't wait for the Key to come out!

After reading 'The Named' about two years ago, i was convinced no other book could compare to it. Yesterday, while browsing in my local Ottakar's i came across this title, 'The Dark'. I cannot explain to you my suprise and excitement when i turned it over and read 'Sequel to The Named'. I started reading it last night and did not put it down until the early hours of this morning and am now very happy to admit just how wrong i was. 'The Dark' is without a doubt the best book i have ever read, with a magical mix of history, adventure and unfathomable love. I would recommend this not only to experienced readers, but also others who are not keen readers. Prepare to be taken on a journey you will never forget! But dont be disappointed once you have finished reading 'The Dark', its sequel and concluding book in the trilogy, 'The Key' is due to be published 7th February 2005!!!!
Happy reading!

Woeful
This has to be one of the worst books that I ever have read. The prose is poor, ungrammatical and stilted. The description of places is lazy and cliche ridden. Read more

Fantastic, the characters are put into your mind brilliantly, and every book comes from two different people's points of view. Read more
