Burn Bright (Night Creatures #1) – Marianne de Pierres
Deliciously dark and imaginative, this trilogy takes place on the party island of Ixion, where everything takes place in excess, and sinister secrets lurk beneath the surface. Night Creatures rule over the island and its inhabitants, but internal politicking, along with a festering rebellion among some of the youth, threaten upheaval and chaos. Poetic and gorgeous.
Retra braves the intense pain of her obedience strip and stows away to seek her brother Joel, gone two years for Ixion–island of ever-night, ever-youth and never-sleep. Retra is a Seal–sealed minds, sealed community – no craving for parties or pleasure.
What are the Night Creatures Retra can see in the shadows? What happens to those who grow too old for Ixion? Without Joel, is her eternal bond with a Riper guardian enough to save her?
Listen well, baby bats. Burn bright, but do not stray from the paths. Remember, when you live in a place of darkness, you also live with creatures of the dark.
