NightKind

(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform Feb. 1, 2014)
Ella Fine has never seen the moon. She has never seen the stars, or the silhouettes of trees at dusk. She, like every other member of Humankind, has been locked inside her home, behind metal shutters and thick walls, to be safe from the NightKind, unimaginable beasts who screech and howl through the streets of Los Angeles as soon as the sun has fallen out of the sky. But that doesn’t stop her from dreaming of what it would be like to walk under the stars, to feel the cool blue of night on her skin, to escape not only from the scorch of daylight, but from the ever present rules and commandments of the class system which she is unwillingly a part of. When her usually ordered life takes an abrupt turn and she is given a glimpse into what the darkness truly holds – not just the horror and fear which haunts every child’s dreams, but the magic and mystery of the ancient faerie realm – Ella must decide if she’s willing to live into her true calling and to throw off the bonds of daytime, though it may destroy everything, and everyone, she loves in the process.
