  1. Enter the dark, magical world of the House of Night series, where vampyres have always existed. Sixteen-year-old Zoey Redbird is a typical teenager facing high school challenges: her boyfriend Heath, who seems more interested in partying than football; her nosy frenemy Kayla; and an upcoming geometry test. Suddenly, her life changes when she is Marked as a fledgling vampyre, leading her to leave her ordinary life and join the House of Night, a boarding school for training future vampyres. However, not all who are Marked survive the Change. As Zoey navigates her new reality, she learns she is special, chosen by the vampyre Goddess, Nyx. Alongside her newfound powers come bloodlust and an unwanted Imprint with Heath, who struggles to accept her boundaries. Additionally, Zoey discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters, the school's elite group, is misusing her gifts. Faced with these challenges, Zoey must find the courage to embrace her destiny, relying on her new vampyre friends for support.

    I'd known it before we saw the fire trucks and the smoke. I'd known all hell had broken loose at the House of Night the moment it had been proven beyond all doubt that Neferet was on the side of Darkness. Only now I had a terrible feeling that outing Neferet would serve more to free her than to force her to pay the consequences for her lies and betrayals. At last, Zoey has what she wanted: the truth is out. Neferet's evil has been exposed, and the High Council is no longer on her side - but she's far from done wreaking havoc in the vampyre world. With the seeds of distrust sown and Darkness breeding chaos at the House of Night, everyone must band together - but that's proving to be more difficult than ever before. The twins are barely speaking and the House of Night's former enemy, Kalona, has now become their warrior, pushing their trust to the limits. To top it all off, Zoey is pretty darn sure she might be losing her mind - she saw something when she looked at Neferet's minion, Aurox, through the Seer Stone that she can hardly explain to herself, let alone her friends. Zoey knows that following her instincts might be just what they need to defeat evil... but if she's wrong, it could cause the destruction of those closest to her. With the tension at a breaking point and friendships on the line, can the nerd herd come together to stop the spread of Darkness before it's too late?
