Un soir, après le lycée, Zoey découvre qu'elle est marquée. Une lune, le signe des vampires, vient d'apparaître sur son front. Aussitôt, sa meilleure amie la rejette, ses parents tentent de l'enfermer et son petit ami devient particulièrement collant... Zoey est terrifiée mais elle n'a pas le choix : elle doit intégrer la Maison de la Nuit, le pensionnat où vivent les futurs vampires. Là-bas, malgré le soutien de la directrice, Zoey s'habitue mal à sa nouvelle vie : les cours ont lieu la nuit, elle dort la journée, les règles sont bouleversées. En plus, elle porte une marque légèrement différente de celle des autres et fait preuve d'une soif de sang beaucoup trop prononcée pour son âge... Tout cela attire vite l'attention d'Aphrodite, une peste tyrannique qui possède un extraordinaire don de prescience. Zoey est dans la ligne de mire. Et ses tourments ne font que commencer

Bienvenue dans la Maison de la Nuit, une école pas tout à fait comme les autres, réservée aux jeunes vampires...

Lorsque la jeune Zoey Redbird est marquée en tant que vampire, son monde change soudainement du tout au tout. Elle doit s'adapter à son nouvel environnement, celui d'une école dont les cours commencent seulement à vingt heures, où la hiérarchie sociale est bouleversée et où il lui faut apprendre à maîtriser sa soif de sang. Surtout, elle va devoir accepter ses nouveaux pouvoirs, qui la lient magiquement aux cinq éléments.

Cet album, écrit par P.C. & Kristin Cast d'après leur best-seller La Maison de la Nuit, développe des éléments seulement entr'aperçue dans le roman éponyme. Il explore également l'histoire de célèbres vampires qui ont traversé l'histoire de l'Humanité, tels que Hippolyte, Circé ou encore Cléopâtre.

It’s Zoey’s eighteenth birthmas and the Nerd Herd has been scattered across the country busily adulting for almost a year when Stark calls them back to Tulsa to surprise Z. But all is not well in T-town. Strange, dark signs are appearing—could it be possible Neferet is stirring? Not willing to chance disaster striking again, Zoey calls on her newly reunited friends to circle with her and add a layer of protection over Neferet’s grotto jail. Easy-peasy, right?

Wrong. Nothing at the House of Night is ever as it seems.

With rabid red vampyres closing in, Zoey and the Nerd Herd must come together again and battle evil. But a year is a long time. Have these old friends grown too far apart?

When the world fractures and allies become enemies, will darkness devour friendships or will light save those she’s loved?

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.

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 has crossed the barrier that separates our world from theirs, and the Furies send a great, albeit untested warrior—their only son, Alek—to try 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 through the House of Night series, Kristin Cast weaves a spellbinding and passionate tale that starts a thrilling new series with an explosive charge.

Une jeune paria dont s'éprend un vampire, une créature enchanteresse qui apporte la rédemption - ou la damnation éternelle -, un château étrange où les peintures rappellent les morts à la vie, des expériences scientifiques qui tournent mal, un amour impossible entre l'élite et le commun des immortels... La tension amoureuse est palpable dans ce recueil de cinq nouvelles au milieu des séducteurs aux dents longues.

Je suis un nom, un souffle dans la nuit.

Je suis la soif qui boit la vie à votre gorge.

La promesse d'un amour plus fort que la mort.

Vous me connaissez. Je suis...

LILITH.

House of Night meets X-Men in this exciting new series from #1 New York Times mother/daughter writing duo, P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast.

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.

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.
