The second in a blockbuster series of novels from Rissia's most popular science fiction author, Day Watch brings us back into the hyperimaginative world of Sergei Lukyanenko and continues the dramatic battle between good and evil, light and dark, day and night.

Set in a modern-day Moscow, the epic saga chronicles the eternal war of the "Others," and ancient race of humans with supernatural powers who must swear allegiance to either the Dark or the Light.  The agents of Dark - The Day Watch - keep an eye during the day, while the agents of Light keep watch over the night.  For a thousand years  a treaty between the two sides has maintained an uneasy balance, but when a very potent artifact is stolen from the Inquisition - an impartial group of Others who keep watch over all - the consequences are dire for both sides.

Day Watch introduces the perspective of the Dark Ones, as it is told in part by a beautiful but troubled young witch.  When she falls in love with a handsom young Light One, the balance is threatened and a death must be avenged.  Replete with the thrilling action and intricate plotting of the first tale, Day Watch is fueled by cunning, cruelty, violence, and magic.  It is a fast-paced, darkly humorous, haunting world that will take root in the shadows of your mind and live there forever.

SERGEI LUKYANENKO was born in Kazakhstan and educated as a psychiatrist.  He began publishing science fiction in the 1980s and has published over twenty-five books.  The three volumes of the Night Watch series have sold more than two million copies worldwide.

THE FOURTH NOVEL IN THE BLOCKBUSTER SERIES from one of Russia's most popular authors, Last Watch returns us to the hyper-imaginative world of Sergei Lukyanenko, where the endless battle between good and evil is about to reach its climax.

Anton Gorodetsky is just getting a feel for his new powers when his boss, Gesar, sends him to assist the Scottish Night Watch in Edinburgh in a murder investigation. A young Russian man has been murdered--apparently by a vampire. But the mystery is more than it seems, and soon Anton is himself in danger. The murderer appears to be someone with intimate knowledge of the Night Watch. Before long, Anton realizes that a plot is being hatched by the forces of both darkness and light that - unless he can intervene - may mean nothing less than Armageddon.

A FRIGHTENING NEW DANGER
ARISES TO THREATEN THE TWILIGHT....

For a millenium, the Others have maintained an uneasy peace that has protected them and the Twilight, a shadowy parallel world beneath our own.  But the battle for supremacy between the forces of the Light and the Darkness is far from over....

Now older and more powerful, Light magician Anton Gorodstsky has risen to the top levels of the Night Watch.  He is also father to a ten-year-old girl who is destined to become a magician of unprecendented power.  When he hears a youg boy at the airport screaming that a plane will crash, Anton suspects the child is a prophet - a rare type of Other who portends catastrophe.

If Anton is right, then the boy has awakened a terrifying danger - a rare, multifaced beast that exists to stop the prophecy from coming true.  With their lives in mortal peril and time running out, Anton must find a way to keep his gifted young daughter safe... and save the Twilight itself.

Others. They walk among us. Observing.
Set in contemporary Moscow, where shape shifters, vampires, and street-sorcerers linger in the shadows, Night Watch is the first book of the hyper-imaginative fantasy pentalogy from best-selling Russian author Sergei Lukyanenko.

This epic saga chronicles the eternal war of the “Others,” an ancient race of humans with supernatural powers who must swear allegiance to either the Dark or the Light. The agents of the Dark – the Night Watch – oversee nocturnal activity, while the agents of the Light keep watch over the day. For a thousand years both sides have maintained a precarious balance of power, but an ancient prophecy has decreed that a supreme Other will one day emerge, threatening to tip the scales. Now, that day has arrived. When a mid-level Night Watch agent named Anton stumbles upon a cursed young woman – an uninitiated Other with magnificent potential – both sides prepare for a battle that could lay waste to the entire city, possible the world. With language that throbs like darkly humorous hard-rock lyrics about blood and power, freedom and responsibility, Night Watch is a chilling, cutting-edge thriller, a pulse-pounding ride of fusion fiction that will leave you breathless for the next instalment.

A SINISTER MESSAGE, A DIRE PROPHECY, AND AN ENEMY
UNLIKE ANYTHING THE NIGHT WATCH HAS EVER FACED.

For a millennium, the Others, a supernatural race of magicians, shapeshifters, vampires, and healers, have maintained an uneasy peace between Light Others and Dark Others that has protected both our world and the Twilight, a shadowy parallel world beneath our own.  Now, these rival factions must unite against the ultimate enemy.

A Light magician and high-ranking member of the Night Watch, Anton Gorodetsky fears nothing.  But lately the threats ore mounting.  A reincarnated vampire has been terrorizing Moscow, and is using the victims to send him a message.  His daughter's school is ambushed by a chimera unlike any he has seen.  And the Prophets have all reached the same chilling conclusion: Our world is running out of time.

If we are to stand a chance, the rival factions of Others must unite against this evil as the Sixth Watch.  But can they put aside their grievances with the world at stake?  Will it be enough?  Journeying from Russia to Paris, the Alps, and New York City, Anton comes in peace - but he is prepared for war.  For if he fails, no one is safe.
