The House of Night Series, written by mother/daughter team, PC Cast and Kristin Cast is a Great Read!
I highly recommend giving the first book, Marked, a try. I did and could not put it down!
A friend told me about this series. She said I needed to read it. She leant me the first 5 books, all at once.
I was finishing up the Twilight Saga, so I had the opportunity to begin reading these books.
A society where vampyres are not necessarily accepted, but are a part of everyday life.
Anyone could have the "vampyre" gene. A Tracker could come and mark you at the age of 15. The Tracker would tell you "you have been marked" and a crescent moon tattoo would appear on your forehead.
Many families did not accept that their children could have this gene and wanted nothing to do with them if they became marked.
Marked children would move to various House of Night locations (schools) to begin learning of this change and eventually see whether their body would accept it. Not all marked children successfully change into a vampyre.
This series is about one school and revolves around one particular girl. A special girl with special gifts!
I could not put the book/s down. I Love a book that is so vivid that you just need to keep reading.
This is a series worthy of that. While explaining it to a coworker it was brought up that this could be...The Vampire version of Harry Potter.
There are 9 books in this series in print. The 9th book, Destined was just released on October 25th. The Fledging Handbook and Dragon's Oath are additional books to read while waiting for more!
