The Darkling Chronicles, Shadows 1

Publisher Marketing: The first three books in The Darkling Chronicles... Shadow Blues LOVE As a darkling shadowcaster, Anka casts shadows in the human world, harnessing some of the earth's UV light to bring back to Montenai-a world full of darklings, nymphs, satyrs, phantoms, sprites, and dragon lords. She battles the strict rules set by the Shadowland Council. Torn between her world and that of her human charge, she must defy the Council or turn her back on love. Shadow Fire COURAGE Bianca has always been a law-abiding darkling, unlike her younger sister, Anka. To protect her sister, Bianca harbors some dark secrets. When a deadly illness called Shadow Fever strikes the village, Bianca fears her own rule-breaking has caused a fatal imbalance in the world of Montenai. She hasn't been doing her job, her duty, and the dragon lords suspect. An unlikely ally offers to help, but can she trust him or should she brave the heat alone? Shadow Thief SURVIVAL Natcha is a creature of fire, drawing in shadow to cloak herself from the dangers of the world. The sea cliffs of Montenai are her home, the Aglatian Sea her playground, and the phantoms her family. All her life, she has hidden in the Faunlier Mountains with her sister Nalene. Only the oath she swore as a child to a darkling father to watch over his son draws her toward the growing turmoil in Shadowland. But when power and love collide, can either really win?
