Merry meet, fledgling. Welcome to a new life, a new world, and a new you. Welcome to the House of Night!

This might seem like a scary time, Fledgling, but never fear! As you start your journey through the ancient halls of the House of Night, this indispensable handbook will aid you in your transition from human to fledgling. Within these pages you will find invaluable information about the history of vampyres. You will also come to a better understanding of your body's transformation, as well as read words of hope from great vampyres of the past and learn essential foundations of rituals and lore. Now, Fledgling, read on. A new life awaits you; your path to that magickal future begins here!
I have to say that were very excited to be reading the House of Night series all in one go!  This series has met so much to me (Jessica) as it was one of the firsts I ever reviewed on this site. So to start off we thought it would be perfect to start with the handbook!  

And make sure to tune in and chat with us on Dec. 13th at 10 AM EST on Youtube!

P.C. Cast was born in Watseka, Illinois, and grew up being shuttled back-and-forth between Illinois and Oklahoma, which is where she fell in love with Quarter Horses and mythology (at about the same time). After high school she joined the United States Air Force and began public speaking and writing. Since her tour in the USAF, she has been speaking and teaching professionally.

Kim Doner was born in Tulsa, Oklahoma and is a graduate of Tulsa University. She is the author and illustrator of the children's book Buffalo Dreams, and the illustrator of several more books for young people, including The Philosopher's Club, The Buffalo in the Mall, and Q Is for Quark.





So im prob out of the norm for most with this one.  I have been pagan for over 20 years so most of this for the rituals etc are spot on.  I really loved this book even though parts of it are kinda boring.  But that being said its more along the lines that its things I already knew.  As for it working with the House of Night series as a handbook to their students I think it was spot on!  They did such a great job brining the world to life in this 101 handbook for Fledglings. 




This was such a wonderful addition to the series! I felt like I had been Marked and was a student there....can it be real please? I love how history as we know it was incorporated into it and made it so much more awesome!! I've had this handbook since it came out and I'm kicking myself for not reading earlier!!

All you need to do is on each post for this series is answer the question in a comment.  Then when its all done ill announce the winner on the show.  Please make sure you either A leave your email on each post or B make sure to watch the show.
