Nightborn

“Lynn Viehl is an amazing storyteller.
Nightborn
strikes through the heart with stunning strength, creating an addictive, complex world—and characters who are so alive that turning the last page will make you feel as though you’re losing the best friends you wish you could have. Especially in a fight.”


New York Times
bestselling author Marjorie M. Liu

 

“A clever, rip-roaring adventure from start to finish with more twists and turns than a back road in the French countryside. Loved it, loved it.”

—#1
New York Times
bestselling author Patricia Briggs

 

The Kyndred Novels

Dreamveil

“The Kyndred story line is fast-paced throughout, as the action never stops. Yet the cast is strong, as is the romantic triangle containing a delightful unexpected late twist.…This urban fantasy is pure magic.”

—The Best Reviews

 

“Followers of the series won’t want to skip this one. Even though
Dreamveil
raises more questions than it answers, Rowan is a great heroine and, if you’re a fan of the series, there are revelations that you won’t want to miss.”

—All About Romance

 

“Viehl’s imaginative spin-off series continues as she once more explores the hazardous world of the genetically altered Kyndred.
