Chosen - Hardcover

by P. C. Cast (Author), Kristin Cast (Author)

Enter the dark, magical world of the House of Night series by bestselling authors P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast, a world very much like our own, except here vampyres have always existed.

"You're changing, Zoey. And I'm not sure what you're changing into."

Bloodlust is rising at the House of Night, and dark forces are pulling fledgling vampyre Zoey Redbird into a game where loyalties shift and the lines between friends and enemies blur beyond recognition.

When her best friend, Stevie Rae, is pulled back from death but left fighting to hold onto her humanity, Zoey is forced to keep secrets that could cost her everything.

Within the walls of the vampyre finishing school, nothing is what it seems--and the truth may be more dangerous than the darkness itself.

Front Jacket

Bloodlust and dark forces are at work at the House of Night...

Fledgling vampyre Zoey Redbird's adventures at the school are about to take a mysterious turn. Those who appear to be her friends are turning out to be enemies. And oddly enough, sworn enemies are also turning into friends. So begins the gripping third installment of this "highly addictive series" (Romantic Times), in which Zoey's mettle will be tested like never before. Her best friend, Stevie Rae, is undead and struggling to maintain a grip on her humanity. Zoey doesn't have a clue how to help her, but she does know that anything she and Stevie Rae discover about the secretive and sinister power that's turning dead fledglings into bloodsucking monsters must be kept secret from everyone else at the House of Night, where trust has become a rare commodity.

Speaking of rare: Zoey finds herself in the very unexpected position of having three boyfriends. Mix in more than a little forbidden desire to the equation and the situation has the potential to spell social disaster of massive proportions. Then, vampyres start turning up dead. Really dead. It looks like the People of Faith, and Zoey's horrid step-loser in particular, are tired of living side-by-side with vampyres. But, as Zoey and her friends find out, things are not always what they seem...
