NINTH HOUSE - LEIGH BARDUGO KARTONIERT (TB)

The instant SUNDAY TIMES and NEW YORK TIMES bestseller that Stephen King calls 'Impossible to
put down'   The mesmerising adult debut from Leigh Bardugo. A tale of power  privilege  dark
magic and murder set among the Ivy League elite.  Alex Stern is the most unlikely member of
Yale's freshman class. A dropout and the sole survivor of a horrific  unsolved crime - the last
thing she wants is to cause trouble. Not when Yale was supposed to be her fresh start. But a
free ride to one of the world's most prestigious universities was bound to come with a catch. 
Alex has been tasked with monitoring the mysterious activities of Yale's secret societies -
societies that have yielded some of the most famous and influential people in the world. Now
there's a dead girl on campus and Alex seems to be the only person who won't accept the neat
answer the police and campus administration have come up with for her murder.  Because Alex
knows the secret societies are far more sinister and extraordinary than anyone ever imagined. 
They tamper with forbidden magic. They raise the dead. And  sometimes  they prey on the living
. . . 'Ninth House is the best fantasy novel I've read in years  because it's about real
people. Bardugo's imaginative reach is brilliant  and this story  full of shocks and twists  is
impossible to put down' Stephen King  'Ninth House is one of the best fantasy novels I've read
in years. This book is brilliant  funny  raw and utterly magnificent - it's a portal to a world
you'll never want to leave' Lev Grossman  bestselling author of The Magicians trilogy  'Ninth
House rocked my world. I could not get enough of Alex Stern  a heroine for the ages. With a
bruised heart and bleeding knuckles  she risks death and damnation - again and again - for the
people she cares about. I was cheering her on the whole way: from the first brilliant sentence
of this book to the last' Joe Hill  bestselling author of N0S4A2
