HarperCollins is re-publishing the Night Watch series, by Russian author Sergei Lukyanenko. An international bestseller, this 5-part fantasy saga revolves around the Others, an ancient race of magicians, shape-shifters, vampires, and other supernatural beings that live among us, and swear allegiance to either the powers of Darkness or the forces of Light. For the past 1000 years, the two sides have been locked in an uneasy truce, keeping their powers in balance as each side secretly plots to take over. DRAMA!
These books are darkly comical and equal parts urban fantasy, spy thriller, and chess match. They also show that even in a world of witches and wizards, vampires and werewolves, good and evil can be a matter of perspective. Deep thoughts for today.
These books will be available over the Winter, building up to the release of the next book in the series, New Watch, in April. However, egalleys are available on Edelweiss, so download away!
