Liar, murderer, scum. On Parpati Island, rumors can make or break anyone. Sangka Jenkins knows this better than most. For five long years, he's heard the theories on what happened that fateful night when his friend, Locke Bell, went missing. If only Sangka could remember, he'd set all his neighbors straight. The only problem, of course, is that he can't remember and he's tired of trying. But, something of late has changed. His dreams are becoming more vivid by the day, and a late night pest he can't explain has come knocking.Strength, perseverance, obedience. To most felors, these words are virtues. To Pru Straightback, Princess of Feloria, these words are shackles. Desperate to explore the world she has only ever seen through books, Pru longs for her upcoming trip north that will take her out of the Frozen Mountains and far from her father's kingdom. But, trouble stirs in Feloria. Whispers from a foreign wind are inspiring some of Pru's kin to make the daily routine of royalty not so dull. With the next great conflict nearing, the Children of Abo have chosen their pieces. And when the Children of Abo clash, only those who are bestowed will prevail.

Constantine, the most valiant of the Vampire Warriors, was sent on the most important mission of his life: he must protect The Chosen One, a mortal who has no idea of who she really is. With a witch and a werewolf assisting him in his quest, he must risk his life and his heart to prevent Anzu, an evil wizard, from taking her and usurping her position as Lore Leader. Loralei Lenore was just a normal person who had no idea of the destiny awaiting her. A teacher out for a night on the town with her friends, she encounters the man who would change her life forever. Plagued by nightmares of her daughter being kidnapped by evil, she soon realizes that her dream was prophetic, and that she was destined to rule the supernatural world and, by default, the world of mankind.
