Awakened (The House of Night #8)
by Kristin Cast P. C. Cast"My love, speak to me. Tell me everything." Neferet went to Kalona, kneeling before him, stroking the soft, dark wings that unfurled loosely around the immortal. "What would you have me say?" He didn't meet her eyes. "Zoey lives." Neferet's voice was flat, cold, lifeless. "She does." "Then you owe me the subservience of your immortal soul." She started to walk away from him. "Where are you going? What will happen next?" "It is quite simple. I will ensure Zoey is drawn back to Oklahoma. There, on my own terms, I will complete the task you failed." Exonerated by the Vampyre High Council and returned to her position of High Priestess at Tulsa's House of Night, Neferet has sworn vengeance on Zoey. Dominion over Kalona is only one of the weapons she plans to use against Z. But Zoey has found sanctuary on the Isle of Skye and is being groomed by Queen Sgiach to take over for her there. Being Queen would be cool, wouldn't it? Why should she return to Tulsa? After losing her human consort, Heath, she will never be the same - and her relationship with her super-hot-warrior, Stark, may never be the same either... And what about Stevie Rae and Rephaim? The Raven Mocker refuses to be used against Stevie Rae, but what choice does he have when no one in the entire world, including Zoey, would be okay with their relationship? Does he betray his father or his heart? In the pulse-pounding 8th book in the bestselling House of Night series, how far will the bonds of friendship stretch and how strong are the ties that bind one girl's heart?

Broken into two parts, the first will take you along the path of growing up Christian with an upbringing teaching of sinful and punishable acts relating to the seeking out of mediums, psychics, and fortune tellers.

She's chilled to learn that the victim's postmortem shows a higher concentration of venom than could ever be found in a single snake—and that therefore the killer must be human.Assisted by a soft-spoken neighbor and an eccentric reptile expert, Clara unravels sinister links to an abandoned house, an ancient ritual, and a fifty-year-old tragedy that has left the survivors secretive. But for someone the truth must remain buried in the past—even if they have to kill to keep it there.Awakening is a disturbing tale of dark secrets and insidious rituals that will have readers unable to stop for a breath until they've reach the stunning climax of this extraordinary read from the author of the acclaimed debut novel Sacrifice.
Azrael
by Andrew WoodcockAzrael, the queen of the witches. This title is bestowed upon a young girl, groomed following a personal disaster by the mysterious Master, two of three central characters to this story. Two young women brought together by personal tragedy, unleashed with frightening evil powers by the Master, to wreak havoc upon an unsuspecting London. The classic battle between good and evil, which for the majority of the story, is an uneven battle won convincingly by the evil side. The side who seems to have all the answers and solutions. Relief for the powers of good seems to come in the form of divine intervention, with a final haunting conclusion as the tide finally turns. But does it? There is a frightening twist to this tale, when everything we are safe and comfortable with is brought into question. A thought-provoking page-turner, laced with horror and humour in equal measure, sharply observed and with truly terrifying moments, Azrael is a slap in the face for anyone looking for a comfortable read.
