Book summary

Betrayal, vengeance, and an intense romance combine to create a powerful narrative in Stephenie Meyer's third book in the Twilight series. Bella Swan finds herself caught between two powerful forces, her beloved vampire, Edward Cullen, and her best friend, Jacob Black, a Quileute Indian and werewolf. While Bella struggles with ancient rivalries, a particularly bloody killing spree in Seattle suggests that she might have more to fear than Edward and Jacob battling for her love. Gripping, fiercely heated, with almost gothic proclivities, this young-adult novel takes delicate Bella Swan farther than she's ever gone before.

Media reviews

"Meyer's trilogy seethes with the archetypal tumult of star-crossed passions, in which the supernatural element serves as heady spice."
