The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

I just finished Nevernight by Jay Kristoff; it's sort of a Harry Potter for Assassins except not YA at all. Lots of brutal murder, lots of foul language and some sex; I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's book 1 of a trilogy; book 2 is out now (Godsgrave) with the 3rd to hit this September.

Nevernight is the first in an epic new fantasy series from the New York Times bestselling author, Jay Kristoff.

In a land where three suns almost never set, a fledgling killer joins a school of assassins, seeking vengeance against the powers who destroyed her family.

Daughter of an executed traitor, Mia Corvere is barely able to escape her father’s failed rebellion with her life. Alone and friendless, she hides in a city built from the bones of a dead god, hunted by the Senate and her father’s former comrades. But her gift for speaking with the shadows leads her to the door of a retired killer, and a future she never imagined.

Now, a sixteen year old Mia is apprenticed to the deadliest flock of assassins in the entire Republic ― the Red Church. Treachery and trials await her with the Church’s halls, and to fail is to die. But if she survives to initiation, Mia will be inducted among the chosen of the Lady of Blessed Murder, and one step closer to the only thing she desires.

Revenge.

In my head, all I can hear is that song from Lion King 2 that goes, “Deception.... AN OUTRAGE... disgraceeee... A SHAME.”

Makes the entry scandalious.
