Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Rin

Unlike our world, vampyres have always existed in 16 year old Zoey Redbird's world. But she's shocked at school when a Tracker marks her as a fledging vampire. And now she has to get to the vampyre boarding school, House of Night.

Sadly, Zoe's mother and stepfather do nothing to help her. In fact they try to get their family shrink and prayer group to save her. So, Zoe tries to go to her grandmother to get help. On the way thereshe gets hurt, and recieves a vision from Nyx (the Vampire Goddess) and learns that she is to be the ears and eyes of Nyx.

When Zoe awakens she finds herself, with her grandmother, at the House of Night.

There, she learns that she's special, different from other, as her mark is filled in, unlike the other fledgings. Regardless, Zoe makes new friends (but also manages to make an enemy of powerful Aphrodite.)

Conflicts and romance ensue and the end will leave you begging for more.

I had very few issues with this book, one was that at times it moved fairly slowly and the other was that the authors sort of dumbed down the language.
