From Amazon: As darkness falls after sunset, the corelings rise—demons who possess supernatural powers and burn with a consuming hatred of humanity. For hundreds of years the demons have terrorized the night, slowly culling the human herd that shelters behind magical wards—symbols of power whose origins are lost in myth and whose protection is terrifyingly fragile. It was not always this way. Once, men and women battled the corelings on equal terms, but those days are gone. Night by night the demons grow stronger, while human numbers dwindle under their relentless assault. Now, with hope for the future fading, three young survivors of vicious demon attacks will dare the impossible, stepping beyond the crumbling safety of the wards to risk everything in a desperate quest to regain the secrets of the past. Together, they will stand against the night.

Fantasy readers. It's dark, so it's not for someone looking for a light summer beach read.

It's hard to find anything 'new' in the world today, but the Corelings and wards in this book were wonderfully creative and exceptionally compelling.

I hate waiting fro the next book in a series, especially one this good!

Read the next one. Instead, I read all the fan pages and found some great artwork created by fans with more artistic talent than I'll every have.

Inspired!

Seems like a fun guy who I'd love to have over for dinner.

It's original and has a depth that makes me want to re-read it again. (Yes, that's redundant, and yet accurate. I did re-read it already...so I'd be re-reading it again.)
