Inhaltsangabe

The third book in the New York Times bestselling series by L.J. Smith.

The Craving is the third book in L.J. Smith’s bestselling Stefan’s Diaries series, which reveals the backstory of brothers Stefan and Damon from the popular paranormal romance, The Vampire Diaries series. This paperback features cover artwork from the hit CW TV series The Vampire Diaries, starring Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, and Ian Somerhalder.

Stefan Salvatore has come to terms with being a vampire. The events of the past few months have sobered him, and the fog of his own blood lust has begun to lift. He travels to 19th century New York City to start a new life―one that does not require him to kill humans to survive. Instead he feeds off of animals in Central Park. But the quiet life he envisioned is jolted when he runs into his brother Damon, who has convinced New York high society that he is Italian royalty. While Stefan is regaining his humanity, Damon has completely lost his in a classic tale of good versus evil. Stefan will do whatever it takes to protect Damon from himself―but there is another villain present. A vampire that seeks revenge for a death the Salvatores are responsible for. Stefan and Damon will have to work together to fight the greatest evil yet.

Full of dark shadows and surprising twists, this historical fantasy raises the stakes for the Salvatore brothers as they face new loves, old treacheries, and unimaginable threats. Fans of L. J. Smith’s New York Times bestselling Vampire Diaries series as well as the hit television show won’t be able to put the latest Salvatore adventure down.

 

• Vampire Brothers: Stefan seeks quiet atonement in the shadows of Central Park while Damon masquerades as royalty among the city’s elite.
• Sibling Rivalry: As one brother clings to his remaining humanity, the other embraces the monster within, forcing a dangerous and inevitable confrontation.
• Atonement and Revenge: Stefan’s solitary quest is shattered by the arrival of a new vampire seeking vengeance for a past crime, forcing the brothers into an uneasy alliance.
• Dark Secret: The Salvatore brothers must navigate the treacherous waters of New York high society, all while protecting their true nature from discovery.
