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 Council 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 at extinguishing Light? And will Zoey be able to touch Aurox's humanity in time to protect them all? Find out what's destined in the next thrilling chapter of the House of Night series.

~Haunted Rose's Review~
(Spoiler Alert *sorta*)
I have been waiting so long for this to come out! My favorite series in the whole world is House of Night and I am just in love with Zoey. She is like my alter ego except I don't spurt magical spirit fireworks and enjoy the taste of blood. Oh and I don't have a cat named Nala or have an awesome arrowboy warrior or have an arch enemy who is out to kill me. The first thing you should know is Do Not Read This If You Haven't Read The First 8 Books. You will get lost really fast and won't enjoy as much as you would have if you read the other ones first. Anyway, if you did then you will really love this book in the series! There is some new people, new problems, and a new adventure, but there is still that old problem: Neferat. Nasty Caniving Little B-word. Yeah she has been consorting with the white bull and the whole world needs to find out!
*Here are my spoilers that aren't really spoilers*
Zoey is going to find out what really happened to her mom. Dragon becomes Bryan. Shaunee will become her own person. Lenobia will be affected by a human male. Rephiam is going to gain something he lost and lastly Kalona will be a warrior again.
Ah hell, is that it? Nope that was just the tip of the iceburg. I bet I really just ruined your day. Now you have the undeniable want to get this book and read it before you explode from suspence!
I give it 5 out of 5 Haunted Roses
