In the shadows and flames, Primals will fall… And from the blood and ash, new gods will rise. What was dreamt. Poppy was never meant to awaken, and the consequences are devastating and far-reaching, stirring ancient powers from their slumber and transforming Casteel and Kieran in ways even the Fates couldn’t have foreseen. But what that means is the least of their concerns. For now. What was foreseen. The Blood Crown has fallen, but what has risen is a far greater danger than they’ve ever faced. From flesh and fire, the Great Conspirator has returned to the mortal realm, and he wants only one thing. They must stop the true Primal of Death before he regains his strength, and it won’t be easy. Even weakened, his influence is undeniable. His power, unthinkable. Has come to be. While the future of the realms rests upon them, they won’t stand alone. The gods have awakened—each harboring their own blood-soaked secrets. But they must navigate an unbalanced realm, where every choice—past and present—has the potential to not only undo everything they’ve fought for but also destroy the very bonds that have Joined them together. For the Harbinger and the Bringer of Death and Destruction has risen.

"History is on repeat, and things didn't go so well the last time. Alexandria isn't sure she's going to make it to her eighteenth birthday--to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she's a goner... and so is Aiden. If that's not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time "training"--which really is just Seth's code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time--she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome. But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she's caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably changed... and destroyed. Those left standing will discover if love is truly greater than Fate.."--

Trinity ist immer noch mitgenommen von der letzten Schlacht, aber sie ist entschlossen, das Ende der Welt zu verhindern. Diesen Kampf muss sie jedoch nicht allein bestreiten, sondern kann auf ihre treuen Verbündeten zählen – allen voran auf Zayne, den sie fast für immer verloren hätte und der jetzt wie sie selbst im Besitz der Gnade ist. Ungeachtet Zaynes neuer Kräfte scheint nur einer mächtig genug zu sein, um die düsteren Pläne des Boten zu vereiteln. Kein Geringerer als Luzifer persönlich. Aber wie hoch ist der Preis, den Trinity und ihre Freunde für die Rettung der Menschheit zahlen müssen?

Die Apokalypse steht bevor. Um die Welt zu retten, müssen Trinity und Zayne den »Boten« aufhalten. Doch keiner weiß, wer oder was dieses Wesen ist, das wahllos Wächter und Dämonen tötet. In dieser bedrohlichen Situation sind Ablenkungen für Trinity eigentlich tabu. Aber sie steckt mitten im Gefühlschaos. Denn nach dem Verrat ihres alten Beschützers ist sie mit Zayne verbunden, zu dem sie sich hingezogen fühlt, obwohl eine Liebesbeziehung zwischen einer Trueborn und ihrem Beschützer tabu ist. Aber als die Suche nach dem »Boten« immer gefährlicher wird, müssen Zayne und Trinity Hilfe beim Dämonenprinz Roth und Layla suchen und noch enger zusammenrücken.

While Sera is finally free of Kolis and back with those she loves, not everything is calm. Memories of all she’s endured still haunt her, but Sera finally has hope for a future with the other half of her heart and soul. Nyktos desires, loves, and accepts every part of her—even the monstrous bits she still battles. More than ever, Sera and Ash have everything under the realms to fight for, and Nyktos has no doubt Sera is fit to be the Queen of the Gods. But she must find that faith within herself if they hope to convince the other Courts to support them against Kolis and make Iliseeum and the mortal realm better, safer places for all. But as Sera begins to piece together the importance of her bloodline and the true meaning behind the foreboding prophecy, it becomes clear that everything that has happened and is yet to come is much bigger than Kolis and his dark obsessions. They cannot help but wonder exactly how much influence the Fates have had and what their ultimate goal is. What Sera does know for sure is that they can trust very few—including her. A battle between the gods is brewing, and heartbreaking losses are imminent with the true Primal of Death strengthening. With a family of the heart willing to battle by their side, can Sera and Nyktos stop Kolis before he destroys the realms, or will it all disappear in a fiery inferno of blood and ash?

È passato un anno da quando Seth ha stretto il suo folle patto con gli dei, accettando di mettere la propria vita al loro servizio. Da allora gli hanno affidato ogni sorta di lavoro sporco, missioni violente e sanguinose che non gli creano nessun problema di coscienza, anzi. Ora, però, Apollo ha in mente qualcosa di diverso. Vuole che protegga una ragazza, e per giunta senza sfiorarla con un dito. Il che, per uno come lui, che ha qualche problema a controllare le proprie pulsioni, potrebbe rivelarsi la sfida più difficile che abbia mai dovuto affrontare. Perché Josie non ha la minima idea dell'effetto che ha su di lui ma, quel che è peggio, non immagina neanche lontanamente l'incubo in cui sta per precipitare. E l'attrazione irresistibile che la spinge tra le braccia del bellissimo giovane dagli occhi ambrati e colmi di segreti potrebbe non essere il minore dei pericoli che l'aspettano.

Only his memories can save her… A great primal power has risen. The Queen of Flesh and Fire has become the Primal of Blood and Bone—the true Primal of Life and Death. And the battle Casteel, Poppy, and their allies have been fighting has only just begun. Gods are awakening across Iliseeum and the mortal realm, readying for the war to come. But when Poppy falls into stasis, Cas faces the very real possibility that the dire, unexpected consequences of what she is becoming could take her away from him. Cas is given some advice, though—something he plans to cling to as he waits to see her beautiful eyes open once more: Talk to her. And so, he does. He reminds Poppy how their journey began, revealing things about himself that only Kieran knows in the process. But it’s anybody’s guess what she’ll wake to or exactly how much of the realm and Cas will have changed when she does. #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout revisits Poppy and Casteel’s epic love story in the next installment of the Blood and Ash series. But this time, Hawke gets to tell the tale.

Zerwanie połączenia między dwoma apolionami nie jest jedynym problemem. Niby nie można ich pokonać, jednak w całej tej historii występuje kilka luk. W dodatku jedyna osoba, która może powstrzymać destrukcję, od stuleci jest martwa. Nie będzie łatwo przebić się przez bariery strzegące Zaświatów, odszukać jedną duszę pomiędzy miliardami i bez uszczerbku wrócić na ziemię. Alex może uchronić Setha przed rolą zabójcy boga albo sama się nim stać.

Osiemnastoletnia Trinity Marrow potrafi widzieć i komunikować się z duchami i zjawami.

Kiedy wysłannicy innego klanu przywożą niepokojące wieści o czymś, co zabija zarówno demony, jak i strażników, poukładany świat dziewczyny legnie w gruzach.

Long ago, the world was destroyed by gods. Only nine cities were spared. Separated by vast wilderness teeming with monsters and unimaginable dangers, each city is now ruled by a guardian―royalty who feed on mortal pleasure. Born with an intuition that never fails, Calista knows her talents are of great value to the power-hungry of the world, so she lives hidden as a courtesan of the Baron of Archwood. In exchange for his protection, she grants him information. When her intuition leads her to save a travelling prince in dire trouble, the voice inside her blazes with warning―and promise. Today he’ll bring her joy. One day he'll be her doom. When the Baron takes an interest in the travelling prince and the prince takes an interest in Calista, she becomes the prince’s temporary companion. But the city simmers with rebellion, and with knights and monsters at her city gates and a hungry prince in her bed, intuition may not be enough to keep her safe. Calista must choose: follow her intuition to safety or follow her heart to her downfall.

After a startling betrayal ends with both Sera and the dangerously seductive ruler of the Shadowlands she has fallen madly in love with being held captive by the false King of the Gods, there is only one thing that can free Nyktos and prevent the forces of the Shadowlands from invading Dalos and igniting a War of Primals. Convincing Kolis won’t be easy, though – not even with a lifetime of training. While his most favored Revenant is insistent that she is nothing more than a lie, Kolis’s erratic nature and twisted sense of honor leave her shaken to the core, and nothing could’ve prepared her for the cruelty of his Court or the shocking truths revealed. The revelations not only upend what she has understood about her duty and the very creation of the realms but also draw into question exactly what the true threat is. However, surviving Kolis is only one part of the battle. The Ascension is upon her, and Sera is out of time. But Nyktos will do anything to keep Sera alive and give her the life she deserves. He’ll even risk the utter destruction of the realms, and that’s exactly what will happen if he doesn’t Ascend as the Primal of Life. Yet despite his desperate determination, their destinies may be out of their hands. But there is that foreseen unexpected thread—the unpredictable, unknown, and unwritten. The only thing more powerful than the Fates…

As Sera aspires to be more than just a Consort, the danger escalates with increasing attacks on the Shadowlands. When Kolis summons them to Court, new risks emerge. The Primal power of Life within Sera grows stronger, drawing her closer to her Culling's end. Without Nyktos's love—an emotion he struggles to express—her survival through the Ascension is uncertain, especially with Kolis lurking. Time is running out for both her and the realms.

Not if she has any hope of building a future where both kingdoms can reside in peace. A great primal power rises… Together, Poppy and Casteel must embrace traditions old and new to safeguard those they hold dear—to protect those who cannot defend themselves.

Poppy's world is shattered as everything she believed, including her feelings for a man she loves, proves to be a lie. Now seen as a symbol of a monstrous kingdom, she struggles to understand her identity without the veil of the Maiden. The Dark One, the Prince of Atlantia, poses the greatest threat, yet she is determined to resist him. Casteel Da’Neer, known for his seductive lies and truths, needs Poppy alive to fulfill his ambitions. Despite her mistrust, he offers her the chance to find her brother Ian, who may have become a soulless Ascended. Collaborating with Casteel is fraught with danger, as he tempts her with desires that could lead to both pleasure and pain. Their connection could bind their fates in ways neither kingdom anticipates. Meanwhile, unrest brews in Atlantia, with whispers of war growing louder. The King aims to use Poppy as a pawn, while enemies seek her demise. As her abilities intensify, fear spreads among the Atlantians.

With the earth trembling and skies bleeding, Poppy may find herself at the center of a storm that could change everything.

A Maiden… Chosen from birth to usher in a new era, Poppy’s life has never been her own. The life of the Maiden is solitary. Never to be touched. Never to be looked upon. Never to be spoken to. Never to experience pleasure. Waiting for the day of her Ascension, she would rather be with the guards, fighting back the evil that took her family, than preparing to be found worthy by the gods. But the choice has never been hers. A Duty… The entire kingdom’s future rests on Poppy’s shoulders, something she’s not even quite sure she wants for herself. Because a Maiden has a heart. And a soul. And longing. And when Hawke, a golden-eyed guard honor bound to ensure her Ascension, enters her life, destiny and duty become tangled with desire and need.

When Evelyn Dasher crossed paths with Luc, she was thrown headfirst into the world of the Lux--only to discover that she was already far more involved in their world than she ever suspected. Because the Luxen aren't the only ones with a hidden past. There's a gap in Evie's memory, lost months of her life and a lingering sense that something happened, something she can't remember and nobody is willing to tell her. She needs to find out the truth about who she is--and who she was. But every answer she finds only brings up more questions. Her search for the truth brings her ever closer to Luc, the Origin at the center of it all. He's powerful, arrogant, inhumanly beautiful, extremely dangerous...and possibly in love with her. But even as Evie falls for him, she can't help but wonder if his attraction is to her, or to the memory of a girl who no longer exists. And all the while, a new threat looms: reports of a flu-like, fatal virus that the government insists is being spread by Luxen. A horrifying illness that changes whoever it touches, spreading panic across a country already at its breaking point. #1 New York Times, USA Today, and internationally bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout returns to the world of the Lux with this steamy, shocking second installment of the Origin series that will leave readers reeling.

It's where her parents work, where Nikki grew up . . . and where she got her heart broken by Gabriel de Vincent himself. Yet here she is, filling in for her sick mother. Avoiding Gabe should be easy, especially when so much of Nikki's time is spent trying not to be stabbed in the back by the malicious hangers-on who frequent the mansion. But escaping memories of Gabe, much less his smoking-hot presence, is harder than expected-especially since he seems determined to be in Nikki's space as much as possible.

Gabe sees more than a girl he's known forever; he sees a smart, talented, and heartbreakingly beautiful woman . . . one who's being stalked from the shadows. Now, Gabe will do anything to keep Nikki safe-and to stop the de Vincent curse from striking again.

Essere destinata a diventare una specie di fonte di energia soprannaturale non è esattamente quello che Alexandria sognava nella vita. Neanche se i suoi poteri servono a Seth, l'Apollyon, il più potente dei Mezzosangue, nonché... la sua ombra. Seth non la lascia un momento: la segue durante gli allenamenti, l'aspetta alla fine delle lezioni, compare persino nella sua camera da letto. È vero che la sua presenza ha anche degli effetti benefici - per esempio, con lui accanto Alex non ha più gli incubi terribili del tragico confronto con la madre - ma non ha alcuna influenza sui sentimenti fortissimi e proibiti che prova per il Puro Aiden... e nemmeno su ciò che lui è disposto a fare, e a sacrificare, per lei. Quando i daimon penetrano nel Covenant e attaccano gli studenti, gli dei inviano le Furie, divinità minori determinate a distruggere ogni pericolo per la scuola, incluso l'Apollyon e... Alex. E come se avere a che fare con un'orda di mostri dell'etere non fosse abbastanza, un'altra misteriosa minaccia incombe su di loro: qualcosa, o qualcuno, vuole neutralizzare Seth, anche se questo significa rendere schiava Alex o addirittura ucciderla. Ma quando ci sono di mezzo gli dei, semplicemente alcune decisioni non possono essere cambiate. Per nessun motivo.

If Ivy is going to have any hope of surviving this, she must put aside the hurt and betrayal she feels, and work with not only those she loves, but with an enemy she would rather kill than ever trust. War is coming, and it soon becomes clear that what Ivy and Ren thought they knew about the Order, themselves, and even their enemies, has been nothing but a cluster of dangerous, deadly lies. Ivy knows she must be more than just brave to save those she loves--and, ultimately, to save herself. Because behind every evil fae Prince, there's a Queen....
