A New York Times and Publishers Weekly bestseller
From bestselling author Kiersten White comes the first novel in a series set in the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer that introduces a new Slayer as she grapples with the responsibility of managing her incredible powers that sheâs just beginning to understand.
Into every generation a Slayer is born…
Nina and her twin sister, Artemis, are far from normal. Itâs hard to be when you grow up at the Watcherâs Academy, which is a bit different from your average boarding school. Here teens are trained as guides for Slayers'girls gifted with supernatural strength to fight the forces of darkness. But while Ninaâs mother is a prominent member of the Watcherâs Council, Nina has never embraced the violent Watcher lifestyle. Instead she follows her instincts to heal, carving out a place for herself as the school medic.
Until the day Ninaâs life changes forever.
Thanks to Buffy, the famous (and infamous) Slayer that Ninaâs father died protecting, Nina is not only the newest Chosen One'sheâs the last Slayer, ever. Period.
As Nina hones her skills with her Watcher-in-training, Leo, thereâs plenty to keep her occupied: a monster fighting ring, a demon who eats happiness, a shadowy figure that keeps popping up in Ninaâs dreams…
But itâs not until bodies start turning up that Ninaâs new powers will truly be tested'because someone she loves might be next.
One thing is clear: Being Chosen is easy. Making choices is hard. - Simon and Schuster
