The Vampire Diaries series has become a reference in the youth pop universe.
The dark - and sexy - love triangle between vampire brothers Stefan and Damon and beautiful teenager Elena, adapted for the small screen by Kevin Williamson, author of Dawson's Creek, in a series starring Ian Somerhalder, Paul Wesley and Nina Dobrev, earned LJ Smith a true legion of fans.
The second book in The Return series, a subseries of the bestselling Vampire Diaries , Dark Souls continues the storyline that began in Nightfall . The kitsune twins—fox spirits—Shinichi and Misao spread fear and terror throughout Fell's Church. Even the cunning Damon Salvatore was tricked into kidnapping and imprisoning his brother, Stefan, in the dark dimension. But the boy relents and agrees to help Elena rescue him from his diabolical prison.
The task isn't easy. The clues are confusing and full of enigmas. But Elena and Damon rely on Meredith and Bonnie's help to enter this strange universe. A place where humans are enslaved by vampires, demons, and kitsunes. Allying themselves with all manner of beings, they must find Stefan, free him, and return to Fell's Church. Here, the relationship between Elena and Damon takes on new dimensions. The vampire reveals all his vulnerability by confessing the true nature of his feelings for the young woman. The love triangle becomes increasingly tense. Now is the time for Elena to dissect once and for all her feelings for each of the Salvatore brothers. And discover which one she's truly in love with.
