Rare and never-before-published short stories featuring fan favorites from the #1 New York Times bestselling Otherworld series
It’s been more than ten years since Kelley Armstrong began the Otherworld series and drew legions of fans to a realm roamed by witches, werewolves, necromancers, vampires, and half-demons. Many of the novels have become bestselling favorites, but not all of the Otherworld adventures have been easy to find. At last, Otherworld Nights shares short stories that have previously been available only online or in obscure collections. Fans have long been clamoring for this anthology and they won’t be disappointed—they’ll find plenty of surprises are in store.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Armstrong revisits her Otherworld series with the first of three planned anthologies. This collection of six short stories and two novellas one brand-new focuses on love and family, preternatural intrigue and politics, and zigging where zags are expected. The three best entries involve werewolves. "Chivalrous" may be short, but its story of forbidden college romance between two werewolves packs a major wallop. In the novella "Hidden," Elena and Clay's attempt to provide their four-year-old twins with an old-fashioned Christmas is interrupted by the investigation of a young man's death. Telling the twins about werewolves becomes more pressing for future Pack Alpha Elena when one of them exhibits supernatural abilities. The brief "From Russia, with Love" features a visit from Pack Alpha Jeremy. His plan to relinquish authority to Elena is delightful, and the twins are so precocious it's a shame the series ended before they grew up. The unfortunately titled "Twilight" is a less interesting examination of vampires, but lycanthrophiles will be very pleased.
