Lenobia's Vow

A House of Night Novella

By: P. C. Cast, Kristin Cast

Narrated by: Caitlin Davies

A great journey…

A new love….

A dark secret revealed.

Evreux, France, 1788: Before she is Zoey's favorite professor and the House of Night's powerful horse mistress… Lenobia is just a normal 16-year-old girl – with enough problems to last a lifetime. As the illegitimate daughter of a powerful baron, she has never quite belonged, and instead has to watch her spoiled half-sister, Cecile, get anything she wants. As if that's not enough, her remarkable beauty draws unwanted attention wherever she goes. For once, she would like to just fit in.

But when fate intervenes, Lenobia suddenly finds herself surrounded by other girls, on a ship bound for New Orleans, where they will be married off to the city's richest Frenchmen. And they're not alone…. An evil bishop who is skilled in Dark magic makes the same journey. His appetite for lovely young women makes him dangerous – most of all to Lenobia, who caught his eye back in France. So she remains hidden, making secret visits to the ship's stables, where a handsome young man and his beautiful Percheron horses soon capture her attention.

Will they make it to land before the bishop discovers her true identity and a powerful evil breaks loose? And will Lenobia follow her heart, even if it puts lives at risk? Find out more about one of your favorite professors in Lenobia's Vow, the next heart-thumping House of Night Novella by PC Cast and Kristin Cast.

Critic reviews

“Caitlin Davies gently balances the emotional tenors of her journey with convincing French and Creole accents…Listeners will find themselves most captivated, though, by the tender love that Lenobia develops with a Creole horse hand named Martin.” —AudioFile Magazine

Loved This Novella! <3

What did you love best about Lenobia's Vow?

I loved that this novel.This novel transforms you back into time while listening to it.Although, listening to this novella seemed short, the overall story was well worth it.I would definitely recommend this book even if you if you haven't listened or read the other House of Night books.This story is a story in its own.\
Definitely a Must Listen! <3

Great character reference

Would you consider the audio edition of Lenobia's Vow to be better than the print version?

I enjoy listening to the books.

What did you like best about this story?

The background info on an interesting character

Which character ??? as performed by Caitlin Davies ??? was your favorite?

The sister

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Lenobia finds out that by being marked she is able to be free to choose for herself without predjudice.

Really Sad but So Good!

Again, I have to say that I really love these Novellas because it explains our favorite characters from the House of Night Series. It was a welcome change because the House of Night seemed to be one problem after another with very few events to be happy about. I am utterly addicted to this series as well as these Novellas but they can be very sad so I enjoy getting the back stories; it makes me want to keep reading in spite of all the sad bits. Spoiler Alert-In the House of Night Series we know that Lenobia is falling in love with the new human stableman but in this Novella we find out who Lenobia's first love was and why she made a vow.

Great Book even if it is sad! Love this Series!
