Riassunto

Jessica has always been different from the other kids at her high school; she has just published a vampire novel under a pen name, and has never had close friends until Caryn and Alex, two strangely familiar students, arrive at her school, and she can't help but feel that Alex is a vampire character sprung to life from her novel.

Recensione:

Praise for In the Forests of the Night:

"An impressive debut."
--San Diego Union Tribune

"First-novelist Atwater-Rhodes writes astonishingly well...she's skillful at building atmosphere, insightful in creating characters and imaginative in varying and expanding on vampire lore."
--Publishers Weekly

"This first novel by an author with great ability and promise is sure to be popular."
--School Library Journal

"Amelia Atwater-Rhodes shows sophistication beyond her years in the intellectual and moral questions she raises. The lush, gothic romanticism and eerie atmosphere will capture the imagination of teenage readers, as will the immediacy of the action, the physical reality of the vampire experience, and the strong inner voice of the main character, Risika."
--Annette Curtis Klause, author of The Silver Kiss

"A gifted writer in the making."
--Voice of Youth Advocates

"An easy-to-read page-turner that makes the dark and shadowy world of her 300-year-old vampires as realistic and current as a lonely walk down a city street at midnight."
--Houston Chronicles

"The book's subject and the age of the author may encourage other young writers to pursue the craft."
--Booklist
