Dream Dark is an exclusive short story linked to the internationally bestselling Beautiful Creatures series.

When Link joined his best friend, Ethan Wate, on a quest through a mysterious network of underground passageways endlessly crisscrossing the South, he knew the journey would be dangerous. But returning home to Gatlin, South Carolina was just the beginning...

Wounded during a climactic battle, Link discovers that tending his injuries won't be as simple as visiting a doctor and that healing his arm should be the least of his worries. For being bitten by a Supernatural does more than break the skin -- it changes a person, inside and out, turning Link into someone more and more like the dark creature who injured him.

In this never-before-seen short story by New York Times bestselling authors Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, listeners witness Link's heart-racing transformation. Dream Dark is set before the much-anticipated third Beautiful Creatures novel, Beautiful Chaos.

* Don't miss the Warner Brothers and Alcon Entertainment blockbuster movie of Beautiful Creatures directed by Richard LaGravenese (P.S. I Love You) and featuring an all star cast including Emma Thompson, Jeremy Irons, Viola Davies and hot young Hollywood talent Alice Englert, Alden Ehrenreich and Emmy Rossum.

Reviews

This [series] has been generating Twilight-level buzz

—— Teen Vogue

All the danger and excitment kept me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. I would definitely read more books by Victoria Hanley as her gripping storylines could keep me entertained for hours

—— Leah Shinn, aged 14 , Red House First News

Sure to become a classic

—— Sunday Express

Vastly entertaining

—— Independent

Riordan delivers puns, jokes and subtle wit, alongside a gripping storyline

—— Sunday Telegraph

Enough twists and turns to make the story unpredictable and compelling

—— Book Angel Booktopia

Witty and funny and exciting, just like the first book. Marcus made a great narrator again . . . It was really intriguing and I think many kids would be hooked on this series of books

—— Readaraptor

Absolutely unputdownable. I raced through it, it was so addictive and I enjoyed every minute of it. I didn't want it to end! I can't recommend this series enough! Read it, then give it to any child you know . . . and then let me know, did YOU guess the ending, or am I the only idiot who didn't?!

—— Bookster Reviews

Bartimaeus is as sardonic, egotistical, and mouthy as ever. This is a superior fantasy.

—— Publishers Weekly

Bartimaeus is back, and he's better than ever! For fans of Bartimaeus, this is an absolute must-buy. For those not yet introduced to him, you may want to give him a try!

—— BCF Book Reviews

Deservedly shortlisted for this year's Costa prize is Jonathan Stroud's The Ring of Solomon....It has magic, intrigue, wit and sassy footnotes.

—— Alison Jay , The Sunday Time

Pace, drama, magic and exotic colour, with Bartimaeus there to give an irreverent, current feel to a story set in the ancient past.

—— Carousel
