So when Amarra is killed in a car crash, Eva should be ready.īut fifteen years of studying never prepared her for this. Eva studies what Amarra does, what she eats, what it’s like to kiss her boyfriend, Ray. Made by the Weavers as a copy of someone else, she is expected to replace a girl named Amarra, her “other”, if she ever died. She is a creation, an abomination-an echo. Set against the gritty, shadowed back-drop of New York City, this first novel in award-winning author Lesley Livingston's epic Starling Saga is an intoxicating blend of sweeping romance and pulse-pounding action.Įva’s life is not her own. When they discover Mason's family-with its dark allegiance to ancient Norse gods-is at the heart of the mystery, Fennrys and Mason are suddenly faced with a terrifying future. Together, they seek to unravel the secrets of Fenn's identity as strange and supernatural forces gather around them. His arrival tears Mason's world apart, even as she feels an undeniable connection to him.
Mason is besieged by nightmarish creatures more terrifying than the thunder and lightning as the raging tempest also brings a dangerous stranger into her life: a young man who remembers nothing but his name-the Fennrys Wolf. Not until the night a ferocious, otherworldly storm rips through Manhattan, trapping Mason and her teammates inside the school.
Mason Starling is a champion fencer on the Gosforth Academy team, but she's never had to fight for her life. Seraphina's tortuous journey to self-acceptance is one readers will remember long after they've turned the final page. In her exquisitely written fantasy debut, Rachel Hartman creates a rich, complex, and utterly original world. While they begin to uncover hints of a sinister plot to destroy the peace, Seraphina struggles to protect her own secret, the secret behind her musical gift, one so terrible that its discovery could mean her very life. Seraphina is drawn into the investigation, partnering with the captain of the Queen's Guard, the dangerously perceptive Prince Lucian Kiggs. An unusually gifted musician, she joins the court just as a member of the royal family is murdered-in suspiciously draconian fashion. Seraphina Dombegh has reason to fear both sides. As the treaty's anniversary draws near, however, tensions are high. Folding themselves into human shape, dragons attend court as ambassadors, and lend their rational, mathematical minds to universities as scholars and teachers.
Four decades of peace have done little to ease the mistrust between humans and dragons in the kingdom of Goredd.
