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 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 traitor, Winnie and her family have been shunned. But on her 16th birthday, she can take the deadly Luminary hunter trials.

Hemlock Falls is no longer hunting the werewolf, she and Erica Thursday are tentative friends, and Winnie finally knows exactly where she stands with Jay Friday. With everything finally on track, Winnie is looking forward to the Nightmare Masquerade, a week-long celebration of all things Luminary. But as Luminaries from across the world flock to the small town, uninvited guests also arrive.

Winnie Wednesday möchte nichts sehnlicher, als sich den Luminaries anzuschließen, dem uralten Orden, der Hemlock Falls – und den Rest der Menschheit – vor den Monstern und Albträumen schützt, die jede Nacht aus dem Wald kommen. An ihrem sechzehnten Geburtstag kann sie an den tödlichen Prüfungen der Luminary-Hunter teilnehmen und beweisen, dass sie treu und loyal ist – und den guten Ruf ihrer Familie wiederherstellen.

Nel magico mondo delle Lande Stregate, nessuno è al riparo dall'oscurità che incombe. Lo Stregone del Sangue Aeduan e la Strega dei Fili Iseult lottano per sopravvivere mentre le armate del Re Predone avanzano nelle Lande seminando morte e terrore tra la popolazione innocente. Aeduan e Iseult hanno mire diverse, ma hanno imparato a fidarsi l'uno dell'altra, consapevoli che le loro vite dipendono dal legame che hanno instaurato. Un legame molto sottile.

Tutti pensano che il principe Merik, lo Stregone del Vento, sia morto nell'esplosione della sua nave. Invece, per quanto malconcio, è vivo, e deciso a dimostrare il tradimento della sorella. Giunge così nella capitale, strabordante di profughi in cerca di rifugio, e inizia ad aggirarsi per le strade, difendendo i deboli. Nasce così la leggenda di un semidio sfigurato, la Furia, che porta giustizia agli oppressi.

Nelle lande stregate ci sono infiniti tipi di magia: tanti quanti i modi per mettersi nei guai, come ben sanno due giovani donne molto speciali. Safiya è una Strega della Verità, ha il dono di riconoscere le menzogne. C'è chi ucciderebbe per avere quel potere, e così lei lo tiene ben nascosto, se non vuole essere usata come una pedina nello scontro tra gli imperi. Iseult invece è una Strega dei Fili: sa vedere i legami invisibili che uniscono le persone attorno a lei, ma non riesce a percepire i sentimenti che la riguardano direttamente.
