As the friends race to uncover clues as to Ulla's heritage, their enemies are closing in . . . In this second instalment of the Omte Origins trilogy, Hocking returns to the world of the Trylle.

Welcome to a world in the shadow of our own, a fairy-tale land where the dangers are real . . . In this second book in the Omte Origins trilogy, Amanda Hocking creates a new adventure in her much-loved Trylle universe.

Will she finally discover her true home?


In the beautiful city of Merellä, Ulla, Pan and Eliana made an incredible discovery. Determined to learn more, they embark on a quest that takes them across the world, to find an ancient city that may hold the key to Ulla's heritage. But powerful enemies are close behind – and they're catching up fast.

While Ulla and Pan race to unlock the past, they discover an earth-shattering secret. This will challenge everything they thought they knew about the troll world. And Eliana must make a difficult choice, with far-reaching consequences. As their enemies draw closer, even the strongest bonds of friendship will be tested. But will they break at last?

Drew me in and kept me hooked . . . It has action, mystery and, thanks to a feisty heroine and brooding hero, there's a good deal of romantic tension -- Sunday Express on the Trylle trilogy

A paranormal romance as addictive as Twilight

-- Stylist on the Trylle trilogy
Returning to the troll world of her Trylle trilogy, Hocking explores another tribe of trolls in this first book in the Kanin Chronicles. The novel's lingering questions and the author's knack for cliffhangers are reason enough to anticipate the next installment -- Publishers Weekly on the Kanin Chronicles

Hocking is a paranormal YA favorite, and her latest does not disappoint. Readers will feel transported by this beautifully written story.
