Gideon by Jacquelyn Frank
From Booklist
With the resurgence of necromancers, human magic-users bent on destroying the Nightwalker races, Gideon, the oldest Demon, has returned from self-exile to reclaim his place among his people. More difficult, though, is repairing his relationship with Legna, who felt betrayed by his rejection almost a decade ago. Fate steps in, and the two find themselves Imprinted, linked in body and mind, and struggling to adjust to their new relationship as the necromancer threat deepens and their people need the couple most. The second in Frank's captivating series (after Jacob: The Nightwalkers, 2006) takes us further into the brewing war between Nightwalkers and necromancers. Patience may be required at the outset, as Frank provides a lot of backstory. But Gideon offers a remarkable twist on the lore of creatures of the night in a lush narrative sure to please readers who have longed for new gothic and darkly romantic tales. Nina Davis (Amazon.Com)

No Country for Old Men by Cormac McCarthy
Book Description

Set in our own time along the bloody frontier between Texas and Mexico, this is Cormac McCarthy’s first novel since Cities of the Plain completed his acclaimed, best-selling Border Trilogy. Llewelyn Moss, hunting antelope near the Rio Grande, instead finds men shot dead, a load of heroin, and more than $2 million in cash. Packing the money out, he knows, will change everything. But only after two more men are murdered does a victim’s burning car lead Sheriff Bell to the carnage out in the desert, and he soon realizes how desperately Moss and his young wife need protection. One party in the failed transaction hires an ex–Special Forces officer to defend his interests against a mesmerizing freelancer, while on either side are men accustomed to spectacular violence and mayhem. The pursuit stretches up and down and across the border, each participant seemingly determined to answer what one asks another: how does a man decide in what order to abandon his life? A harrowing story of a war that society is waging on itself, and an enduring meditation on the ties of love and blood and duty that inform lives and shape destinies, No Country for Old Men is a novel of extraordinary resonance and power.
