After a Vampire Tracker Marks her with a crescent moon on her forehead, 16-year-old Twilight Sparkle enters the House of Night and learns that she is no average fledgling. She has been Marked as special by the vampyre Goddess Luna and has affinities for all five elements: Air, Fire Water, Earth and Spirit. But she is not the only fledgling at the House of Night with special powers. When she discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters(Rarity) , the school’s most elite club, is mis-using her Goddess-given gifts, Twilight must look deep within herself for the courage to embrace her destiny – with a little help from her new vampire friends (or Nerd Herd, as Rarity calls them).
