From Susan Dennard, the New York Times bestselling author of the Witchlands series, comes a haunting and high-octane contemporary fantasy, about the magic it takes to face your fears in a nightmare-filled forest, and the mettle required to face the secrets hiding in the dark corners of your own family. Hemlock Falls isn' t like other towns. You won' t find it on a map, your phone won' t work here, and the forest outside town might just kill you. Winnie Wednesday wants nothing more than to join the Luminaries, the ancient order that protects Winnie' s town--and the rest of humanity--from the monsters and nightmares that rise in the forest of Hemlock Falls every night. Ever since her father was exposed as a witch and a traitor, Winnie and her family have been shunned. But on her sixteenth birthday, she can take the deadly Luminary hunter trials and prove herself true and loyal--and restore her family' s good name. Or die trying. But in order to survive, Winnie enlists the help of the one person who can help her train: Jay Friday, resident bad boy and Winnie' s ex-best friend. While Jay might be the most promising new hunter in Hemlock Falls, he also seems to know more about the nightmares of the forest than he should. Together, he and Winnie will discover a danger lurking in the forest no one in Hemlock Falls is prepared for. Not all monsters can be slain, and not all nightmares are confined to the dark. You' ll want to get lost in the world of The Luminaries again and again. "--Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author

#01: Luminaries, The

"Will draw you in and leave you begging for more. Rich with tension, atmosphere, and finesse, you' ll want to get lost in the world of The Luminaries again and again. "-- Leigh Bardugo, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Shadow & Bone and The Ninth House"I lost myself from page one in Hemlock Falls and its deadly forest, as vicious as it is inescapably alluring. Winnie Wednesday is the sort of outcast-turned-monster-hunter you can' t help loving and rooting for. "--Marissa Meyer, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Gilded"Enthralling from the first page, The Luminaries lures you into a misty darkness rife with thrills and romance. Living nightmares may stalk across the pages, but this book is a paranormal fantasy dream. The forest calls, and you will love every second of devouring its mysteries. "--Alexandra Bracken, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Lore"The Luminaries is exactly the thrilling, dangerous, heart-pounding fantasy I needed, with an incredibly original world and a heroine who knows and fights for her worth. Prepare yourself accordingly--I devoured this in a single sitting. "--Marie Lu, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Skyhunter
