Critique Based On Books Nyx in the House of Night: Mythology, Folklore and Religion in the PC and Kristin Cast Vampyre Series

Nyx in the House of Night: Mythology, Folklore and Religion in the PC and Kristin Cast Vampyre Series gives a new look into the creation of the House of Night. I really can't pick a favorite chapter - they were all very informative! From rituals to history, Tulsa to Scotland, and Cherokee legend to Greek myths, Nyx in the House of Night brings insight and knowledge into how the Casts bring the characters, settings, and magic to life.

If you had a question in the HoN series, this book will definitely answer them!

Don't be confused. This is not A House of night novel. This is an non fiction book about the goddes Nyx and another mithological stuff used in the series, write in essay way by a few authors (kristin cast included and edited by P. C.Cast).If you are interested in the real base of the myths used in the series or history, and religion, and things that influence the autors, maybe this book is for you. If your not, please make you a favor and pass out, because it'll be boring for you.Let me be

I basically bought this book to add to the collection of the series I own. I actually have not read it and will not. Its a companions book to the series and if you want to understand the religion behind the house of night vampires then you need to read this. I understand the series just fine. I scanned this book and it was good enough for me. so I have no real review but to say if you do not understand the religion as I said above then read this and you will understand the books a bit better.

I thought all the books were awesome and thank P.C. and Kristen Cast for creating such a spectacular and addictive books but my favorites are Tempted, Untamed, Burned ,and Hunted. Thanks again to the wonderful authors of this series, it's better than the twilight series by Stephenie Meyer but not better than the vampire academy series by Richelle Mead

This is a book to go along with the House of Night series and providing background information. Too often I have seen where such books are very shallow and are rather poorly done and totally uninteresting to someone who is not familiar with the series. This book, though, is not only well done but I think would interest someone who has not yet read the series and would probably encourage them to read it.There is one whole chapter on the marks and what they mean (and how marks have been used

Fantastic reference book for those who enter the House of Night series Explanations, historical underpinnings, mythological references and more. Lovely artwork too. I could see this being required reading in a modern vampyre class.
