About this ebook

Zoey is finally home where she belongs, safe with her Guardian Warrior, Stark, by her side, and preparing to face off against Neferet – which would be a whole lot easier if the High Counsel saw the ex-High Priestess for what she really is. Kalona has released his hold on Rephaim, and, through Nyx's gift of a human form, Rephaim and Stevie Rae are finally able to be together – if he can truly walk the path of the Goddess and stay free of his father's shadow...
But there are new forces at work at the House of Night. An influx of humans, including Lenobia's handsome horse whisperer, threatens their precarious stability. And then there's the mysterious Aurox, a jaw-droppingly gorgeous teen boy who is actually more – or possibly less – than human. Only Neferet knows he was created to be her greatest weapon. But Zoey can sense the part of his soul that remains human, the compassion that wars with his Dark calling. And there's something strangely familiar about him...
Will Neferet's true nature be revealed before she succeeds in silencing them all? And will Zoey be able to touch Aurox's humanity in time to protect him – and everyone – from his own fate? Find out what's destined in the next thrilling chapter of the House of Night series.

Ratings and reviews

Well honestly I loved this book I just wish it wasn’t so childish all the time. I mean I’m a teenager and all and I love all these little jokes, but come on they are like 17 and 18 now. Shouldn’t they act more mature? And Zoey needs to act more like a controlled teenager not a horney teenager! Oh and making health come back was Cruel!! Yeah force it on Zoey to choose between to guys, a soon to be immortal vampyer or a too self-consisted dumb mortal teenager? I loved this book just not some of the parts btw. Though i can say keep up the work and DONT BREAK THE CIRCLE (LMFAO)

Please wrap this thing UP already....... I feel like nothing has happened during the last 3 books I find myself very bored and annoyed. I just want an end to this series

I am glad that the POV changes throught the book because i can not stand Zoey's constant whining and what i dont unsderstand is why can't heath just be left alone HE'S DIED already FOR PEAPS SAKE LET HIM BE!
