One day, during school, Zoey is marked by a Tracker to become a fledgling vampyre at the Tulsa House of Night, a boarding school where she will be trained to become an adult vampyre. Sixteen-year-old Zoey Redbird lives in a world where vampires, or "vampyres" have always existed. The book has been translated into more than 20 languages including French, Spanish, German and Chinese.
Young fledgling Zoey is unusual: unlike other normal fledglings, she bears a filled mark, a sign that the goddess of vampyres, Nyx, has bestowed a great destiny onto her, but she also has to deal with normal high school girl issues, like school, boyfriends and the evil popular girl waiting just around the corner. Those are sent to their local Houses of Night, private schools directed by vampyres, specialized in helping the adolescents, called fledglings, survive the Change. Young teenagers are selected to enter a four-year period transformation to a vampyre and marked with the unfilled mark of a crescent moon. To add to her stress, she is not the only fledgling at the House of Night with special powers: when she discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters, the school's most elite group, is misusing her Goddess-given gifts, Zoey must look deep within herself for the courage to embrace her destiny―with a little help from her new vampyre friends.Marked is the first novel of the House of Night fantasy series written by P.C. Zoey discovers she has amazing powers, but along with her powers come bloodlust and an unfortunate ability to Imprint with Heath, who just doesn't know how to take "no" for an answer. She has been chosen as special by the vampyre Goddess, Nyx. It sucks to begin a new life, especially away from her friends, and on top of that, Zoey is no average fledgling. That is, if she makes it through the Change―and not all of those who are Marked do. The next, she's Marked as a fledgling vampyre, forcing her to leave her ordinary life behind and join the House of Night, a boarding school where she will train to become an adult vampyre. One minute, sixteen-year-old Zoey Redbird is a normal teenager dealing with everyday high school stress: her cute boyfriend Heath, the school's star quarterback who suddenly seems more interested in partying than playing ball her nosy frenemy Kayla, who's way too concerned with how things are going with Heath her uber-tough geometry test tomorrow. Enter the dark, magical world of the House of Night, a world very much like our own, except here vampyres have always existed.
