The action is fast paced and absorbing, interspersing light moments among the intensity. When you reach the climax of the tale, you'll be on the edge of your seat. Though this is labeled a young adult novel, I strongly suspect adults of any age will enjoy it." --<i>Huntress.com on Marked</i> <p/>"The Casts, mother and daughter, have written a delightful book that's aimed at teens but will be enjoyed by readers of all ages. The trials of growing up are presented in the new and original context of a vampire society, and they're woven into a thoroughly entertaining story. Zoey is a dynamic and spunky heroine who has an amusing and realistic voice. She's surrounded by secondary characters who are just as engaging. The dialogue is sharp and the references to real people and pop culture add to the story. This promises to be a highly addictive series." --<i>Romantic Times on Marked</i> <p/>"A fantastic, fun-paced read." --<i>RomanceJunkies.com on Marked</i> <p/>"<i>Marked</i> is one of the best coming of age stories to come out of Oklahoma since S. E. Hinton's <i>The Outsiders</i>. It teaches about the beauty of being a social outcast, friendship, and finding your own inner spirituality." --<i>The Beltane Papers on Marked</i> <p/>"Readers will identify with many of the characters, especially the protagonist ... A good choice for those libraries serving fans of the occult..." --<i>Library Journal on Marked</i> <p/>"From the moment I stuck my face in this book it hooked me!

This is extremely craveable reading!" --<i>Romantic Times on Betrayed</i> <p/>"Some would find it hard to write the sequel to a great book like <i>Marked</i>, but the Cast women obviously didn't have that problem. I laughed, sighed, and definitely cried. I thought that I knew where this series was headed but the authors took me completely by surprise. Congrats to P.C. and Kristin Cast, on a fantastic job. Bring on <i>Chosen</i>!" --<i>Night Owl Romance Reviews on Betrayed</i> <p/>"It does not matter if you are male or female, this series will enthrall you...Authors P.C.

Although she is a vampyre, Zoey Redbird's journey is one for every teen. Her voice is genuine and ... captures the sincerity and frankness of a teenager in search of a new home and a place where she truly belongs. The emotional portrayal of Zoey's trouble and tribulations enhances the quality of these books.

These books will have the reader laughing hysterically and sobbing unreservedly sometimes all at once." --<i>VOYA (on Marked and Betrayed)</i> <p/>"Teenage issues can seem like life or death, but in this haunting series, House of Night, that's really the case. Through Zoey's eyes readers are led into a world that's getting more complicated by the minute, where friends and enemies can switch positions in a heartbeat. The remarkable Cast duo continues to build a world that you won't soon forget!" --<i>Romantic Times on Chosen</i> <p/>"<i>Chosen</i>, The House of Night series book 3, is like the cream in an Oreo cookie holding the two ends together. This story is gearing up for the final showdown between Zoey and Nepheret and mother and daughter team, P.C. and Kristen Cast are setting the stage perfectly for this....Again, P.C. Cast is an auto-buy author for me and this series is also on that auto-buy list." --<i>Paranormal Romance Reviews on Chosen</i> <p/>"You have a set up that feels a bit like X-Men meets Harry Potter meets Interview with the Vampire all told in a voice as engaging and spirited as anything recounted by Meg Cabot." --<i>JanuaryMagazine.com on Untamed</i> <p/>"This is a series that should not be missed!" --<i>EnchantingReviews.com on Untamed</i> <p/>"Untamed is a fast moving and adventure filled read, with engaging characters and just a touch of romantic chemistry to keep fans guessing.

The Cast duo breathes life and vibrancy into the characters and makes each one an integral part of the saga. Awesome and unforgettable as always!" --<i>Romantic Times on Hunted</i> <p/>"The Cast duo has done it again! These ladies appear to be an unstoppable force within the world of YA literature... Teenage readers will be drawn to Zoey's everyday, angst-riddled life. Not only does she need to save the world, Zoey needs to solve some major vampyre/human boy drama. These stories are surreal, yet shockingly accurate when it comes to teenagers and their lives." --<i>TeensReadToo.com on Hunted</i> <p/>"The most masterful part of the writing lies in how the authors take on serious issues sex, peer pressure, bullying, parental alienation, religion, and substance abuse and weave them into the text. It is a refreshing perspective that doesn't feel like preaching." --<i>Tulsa World on Hunted</i> <p/>"I absolutely loved this book....

P.C. and Kristin Cast do a phenomenal job." --<i>Darquereviews.com on Hunted</i> <p/>"Hunted is an appealing supernatural thriller... The exciting storyline is filled with teenage angst as Zoey struggles with choices that would cause PTSD in most adults.... This fine entry casts a strong spell on readers." --<i>Thebestreviews.com on Hunted</i> <p/>"A richly nuanced standout... Even when she's confused, even when she's embroiled in teen-angst, Zoey's choices, delivered in fresh first person, seem believable. Even better? They seem smart.... This series has dark themes and subject matter, but the Cast team delivers them with sparkling dialogue, wry humor, and realistic characters driven by genuine humanity." --<i>Fictionistas.blogspot.com on Hunted</i></p> <p/><br></br><p><b> About The Author </b></p></br></br> <p>P.C.
