From the critically acclaimed author of the TALKER 25 series comes a harrowing tale of redemption, sacrifice, and love:
Every month, seventeen-year-old Owen, a once-human boy now condemned to life as Prince of the Goblins, must journey from the netherworld to harvest human children. He snatches them from their beds, mines their souls, and transforms them into goblins. Though he despises his duty, he never falters, for without spirit energy, he and his brethren will perish.
Owen's next target, Natalie, owns the most powerful soul in a century. If he can keep her out of the hands of his enemies - ever-child vampires who wish to make her their queen - and harness her soul energy, he will ensure the survival of Goblindom for another generation.
Natalie, however, is unlike his other victims. She possesses the compassion to recognize and nurture the spark of humanity in a goblin attempting to rive her soul. Her faith in his goodness inspires Owen to pursue a new mission - one where he will be guardian instead of predator, one that will afford him pride in place of sorrow.
But to protect the children of tomorrow from the horrors of yesterday, Owen must extract one last soul - one powerful enough to annihilate not only his vampire enemies, but also his goblin brothers, but is he willing to destroy the only person who sees the boy behind the monster?
