The Evanescence Chronicles: Volume I

****This version is a combination of the first three books of the Evanescence series: Evanescence, The Mirror, and Soul Cannibal****

For the girl who has everything, Mercedes Strand can't possibly ask for more. But more she will get. She's earned it after all. She's kind, altruistic, and a total whiz on the computer.

With her pure angelic voice she can unite the cowardly sirens, the blind dragons, and the fanatical vampires against the forces of evil. They won't ignore her, beat her, or try to kill her…

Huh.
