Le Terre degli Uomini sono ormai in mano al Male e, ora, l’occhio di Draug è rivolto al Mondo Magico. Aurian e Moran-dum non hanno mai tremato come in questi giorni bui, dove la minaccia di una guerra civile si fa sempre più concreta, forte del ritorno di Urgor e i suoi Rinnegati. Chi è il Principe delle Tenebre che gli incubi di On continuano a nominare? Un segreto che solo pochi conoscono, capace di svelare le vere regole della Caccia e le radici oscure da cui trae nutrimento.

Una a una, le città dell’Uomo cadono sotto i colpi delle milizie Kaad. Una a una, le terre dell’Ovest soccombono alla minaccia nemica.

Die Hexenkräfte sind erwacht. Die Ravenhall Academy ist für die junge Hexe Lilly Campbell inzwischen zu einem Zuhause geworden. Einem Zuhause, das sie am liebsten nicht mehr verlassen würde, doch die dramatischen Ereignisse in der magischen Welt führen sie nach Irland. In der einzigartigen Halloweenstadt Rathcroghan angekommen, trifft sie auf den charmanten Ryan, der ihr die Geheimnisse dieses mysteriösen Ortes näherbringt. Aber Lilly muss bald feststellen, dass in den Tiefen der Wälder Irlands Geister und dunkle Mächte ihr Unwesen treiben.

Manchmal reicht ein Funke, um einen Sturm zu entfachen. Städte, Siedlungen und Straßen gehören den Menschen, die Wälder jedoch sind das Reich der Qidhe, der magischen Wesen. So will es das umstrittene und streng durchgesetzte Friedensabkommen. Aber Sintha pfeift auf diese Gesetze. Halb Mensch, halb Qidhe muss sie sich ohnehin mit dem Misstrauen beider Welten herumschlagen – besonders mit dem der Vakàr, einem dunklen magischen Volk, das die Einhaltung des Friedensabkommens erbarmungslos überwacht.

Willkommen auf der Ravenhall Academy. Mit allem hätte Lilly Campbell gerechnet, aber nicht damit, dass sie eine Hexe ist: Von ihrer Grandma erfährt sie, dass uralte Magie in ihr schlummert – und um diese zu trainieren, soll sie die Ravenhall Academy besuchen.

Dabei gerät sie immer wieder mit dem leider viel zu attraktiven Jason aneinander, der ihr nicht mehr aus dem Kopf gehen will. Aber schon bald wird klar, dass auf Ravenhall nicht alles so ist, wie es scheint.
