En descendant du train à Penn Station, le jeune homme se rend compte qu'il a tout oublié : son nom, son passé, son visage... Une seule certitude : quoiqu'il n'ait jamais mis les pieds à Manhattan, il est ici chez lui. Rien d'anormal, donc, à ce qu'un vieux taxi jaune à damiers s'arrête devant lui au moment où il en a le plus besoin. Il doit impérativement se rendre sur FDR Drive ; il ignore pourquoi, mais cela a sans doute un rapport avec les tentacules qui sèment le trouble à chaque coin de rue.

I’m Jacqueline, daughter of Hasan, ruling werecat of the Americas, the werecat liaison to humanity, and the lover of Heath Everson, Alpha werewolf. But I go by Jacky Leon, and no one knows about the werewolf. Some time ago, I met a fae and his family while on the run. They helped me, and for his own reasons, the fae had given me a gift. I never went looking for him. I knew the name he gave me and I did my best not to think too hard about it, him, or his family. Life has a fun way of bringing things back, because he's the lost king of the fae and now everyone knows.

My duty to my family is simple. Help maintain order and uphold the law for my werecat father, Hasan, a member of the Tribunal. But I’ve always had a defiant streak. To do what’s right, I’m willing to throw the law out the window and turn my back on everything I’ve been told. Everyone around me knows I’m willing to risk everything for what I believe in. All I can hope is that my beliefs and the law don’t clash again. Because I have another duty. A duty to blood. A duty to the bond between those who once shared a face and a life.

My throat is always on fire. My mouth is always dry. The only thing that helps? Human blood. As much as vampires need it, it is also our curse. Blood can drive us mad if we’re not careful.

When we drain someone, we get high; it’s a rush that some vampires love to chase once they cross that line. Vampires will do anything to get it and there’s nothing that will stop them from killing hundreds.

Das Licht des Mondes verschwand vom Kontinent "Die Stille", nachdem ein flammender Spalt das Land geteilt und den Himmel mit Asche verdunkelt hatte. Nun sagen alle Vorzeichen, dass der Mond bald wieder sichtbar sein wird - doch ob dies die Rettung der Menschheit bedeutet oder ihren Untergang, sagen die Zeichen nicht. Das Schicksal der "Stille" wird von den Entscheidungen zweier Frauen abhängen: Essun, die die Macht ihres Mentors Alabaster Tenring geerbt hat und die Obelisken beherrscht, mit deren Hilfe sie nun endlich ihre Tochter Nassun finden will.

Le retour imminent de la Lune signifie-t-il la fin de l'humanité ou au contraire sa rédemption ? La réponse à cette question repose sur les épaules d'une femme et de sa fille. La première, Essun, entend se servir des pouvoirs qu'elle a hérités d'Albâtre pour bâtir un monde dans lequel les orogènes seraient libres. Mais pour la seconde, Nassun, il est trop tard. Elle a vu ce que le monde avait à offrir de pire, et elle a accepté ce que sa mère n'admettra jamais : qu'il est corrompu au-delà du point de non-retour, et que sa destruction est inévitable.

Nella antica città di Gujaareh, la pace è l'unica legge. Sui suoi tetti e tra le ombre delle sue strade acciottolate vegliano i Raccoglitori, sacerdoti della Dea dei sogni. Hanno il compito di raccogliere la magia dalla mente dei sognatori perché venga usata per guarire le sofferenze del corpo e dell'anima. E possono uccidere chiunque giudichino corrotto.
