Night of the Huntress Benjamin Nelson

The thrilling sequel to Crownsbane sees readers return to a world where monsters rule with a cruel iron fist and humanity and its allies lie on the brink of extinction. Where creatures are not always what or who they seem. Where the allure of Darkness remains supreme. Just a month has passed after the events of Crownsbane. A trail of bodies laid strewn. A descendant of an ancient bloodline has been revealed. Names have been claimed. In fascist Glasgow, an Assassin haunts the city. Under the backdrop of a student riot, this unforgiving woman stalks her most prized prey. Her prey, meanwhile, has their own intentions and dying is not one of them. The question is, who is really the huntress and who is the prey? Down south, near Swansea, the young vampire, private Roland Kyle, struggles to acclimate to his new role within the Blood Lord's army. After a scarring experience out in the wilderness, he meets the ethereal pixie, Aífe, and confronts his personal failings.
