Alterni

di Sunshine Somerville (Autore)

Sunshine Somerville, 2017

Eight Chosen Ones came before her. All of them are dead. When a bubble of light abducts Esme, she wakes in a version of Kansas City where magic is real – and a secret war is being lost. Demonic beasts called malevolenci are tearing into reality through otherworldly rifts, and the ancient Order sworn to stop them is running out of options. Esme doesn't belong here. At least, she shouldn't. In this Sanctuary world, werewolves from the secret Order patrol alongside the KCPD. Vampires make excellent doctors. Fairies dream of Hollywood. Elves are lawyers. Goblins run banks. Trolls are soldiers – and serve the best barbecue in town. Magic is woven into everyday life…and into a war no one else can see. The Order summoned Esme for one reason: She is an alterni – an alt-world version of the original Esme who fought to save them. And only alterni can wield a rare magic powerful enough to fight the malevolenci. Eight alterni came before her. Eight are dead. Now Esme must master complex magic, survive in a world that doesn't believe in her, and partner with King Owen – the charming but broken ruler haunted by alterni he's already lost. As malevolenci attacks escalate and the Order's faith collapses, Esme realizes the truth no one wants to tell her: She wasn't summoned to save the Sanctuary. She was summoned to replace the last failure. If Esme falls, the invasion won't just destroy the Sanctuary – it will spill into her world next. Alterni is Book 1 of The Alt-World Chronicles, an urban fantasy series about magic, demonic monsters, and worlds on the brink. Perfect for fans of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural, Wynonna Earp, and Grimm.
