Raised in a family of demon hunters, Blair Murphy has her own personal demons to fight - the father who trained, then abandoned her, and the fiancé who walked out on her after learning what she is. Now she finds herself training a sorcerer from 12th century Ireland, a witch from modern day New York, a scholar and a shape changer from the mythical land of Geall, while trying to keep herself from staking the sixth of their circle and host: a vampire sired by Lilith, the vampire queen they've been charged with defeating on Samhain.

No stranger to butt-kicking, Blair finds herself taking a good whipping when it comes to that handsome and flirtatious Geallian, Larkin. And a couple of run-ins with Lilith's right-hand gal gives Blair more than she reckoned for, mentally and physically. But will she be able to stay afloat long enough to defeat Lilith's loyal in pre-battle bouts? Or will she find herself falling for the one thing she vowed never to give in to again? If the vampires don't do her in, Larkin is certainly up to the task.

Second in a trilogy from the #1 New York Times bestselling author

Irish sorcerer Hoyt Mac Cionaoith tries to destroy the demon Queen Lilith after she turns his twin brother into a vampire. But Lilith is only wounded, and the Circle of Six--wizard Hoyt, vampire Cian, witch Glenna, princess Moira, shape-shifter Larkin, and demon hunter Blair--prepare to battle the queen for dominion of the world. Dick Hill's vocal personality depicts the battle training and the infighting with Irish accents and tones that capture the pre-battle tension and bravado. In particular, Hill gives a polished performance that depicts the sparks between the old-fashioned Larkin and the enlightened Blair. Overall, Hill delivers a satisfying paranormal fantasy filled with humor and romance, magic and myth. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
