Coldtown
was
dangerous,
Tana
knew.
A
glamorous
cage,
a
prison
for
the
damned
and
anyone
who
wanted
to
party
with
them.
One
morning,
after
a
perfectly
ordinary
party,
Tana
wakes
up
surrounded
by
corpses.
The
only
other
survivors
of
this
massacre
are
her
exasperatingly
endearing
ex-boyfriend,
infected
and
on
the
edge,
and
a
mysterious
boy
burdened
with
a
terrible
secret.
Shaken
and
determined,
Tana
enters
a
race
against
the
clock
to
save
the
three
of
them
the
only
way
she
knows
how:
by
going
straight
to
the
wicked,
opulent
heart
of
Coldtown
itself.

"We've all read a million YA vampire stories at this point, but no one writes like Holly Black: Her worlds are funny and eerily vivid, and Coldtown-a rollicking and decadent ghetto-is one of my all-time favorite fantasy novel settings."—Author ofThe Fault in Our StarsJohn Green,Metro New York
"A dark...edge-of-your-seat read."—Entertainment Weekly
* "You may be ready to put a stake in vampire lit, but read this first: It's dark and dangerous, bloody and brilliant."—Kirkus (starred review)
* "Teens with a yen for dark, futuristic novels, and maybe even a few Anne Rice readers, will find this a refreshing take on vampire lit. As always, Black's writing is quick paced and thought-provoking. A must-have for any teen collection."—School Library Journal (starred review)
* "With rapid-fire dialogue, lavish details, and a wildly imagined world, this will enthrall Black's fans from start to finish and leave them hoping for another bone-chilling vicarious tour of Coldtown."—Booklist (starred review)
*"Replete with grisly violence, an intriguingly complex take on the mechanics of vampirism, and well-developed and memorable characters, this superior, dread-soaked tale will satisfy vampire addicts of all ages."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Black's compelling prose, descriptive yet direct, conjures a modern gothic world populated by cruel immortals, desperate humans offering themselves as food, and a few hardscrabble survivors. Tana is a winning heroine, by turns staking killer vampires and giving herself over to Gavriel's deep, smoldering kisses."—The Horn Book
"This is a solidly paced adventure studded with the occasional steamy encounter, so readers familiar with Black's mix of emotional depth and outstanding world-building will not be disappointed."—BCCB
"Written beautifully, with a really rich setting and complex characters."—Veronica Roth, author of Divergent
Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Tana lives in a world where walled cities called Coldtowns exist. In them, quarantined monsters and humans mingle in a decadently bloody mix of predator and prey. It's an eternal party, shown on TV 24 hours a day - gorgeous, glamorous, deadly! Because, once you pass through Coldtown's gates, you can never leave...
A wholly original story of rage and revenge, love and loathing from bestselling author, Holly Black. Fans of TRUE BLOOD will love this dark and sexy tale.
