In the second book, Stolen, author Kelley Armstrong takes this theory one step further and introduces more such mythical creatures, arguing successfully that if werewolves are possible then so are vampires, demons, witches and others. In the first book, Bitten, readers were made aware of the secret existence of werewolves in normal human society.
What will happen now? Who will win this epic struggle between man and creatures from his worst nightmare? Before these highly mistrustful and bickering races can agree upon a common strategy, Elena is kidnapped by Winsloe’s team. In an unexpected but magnificent twist of plot, these legendary villains have gathered to discuss the recent surge in kidnapping/killing of their fellow supernaturals by their seemingly ordinary foe: man – in particular, computer billionaire Tyrone Winsloe, who has grown bored with his video games and now wants the thrill of hunting some of real-life monsters.
When the women purporting to be the sellers reveal themselves to be real-life witches who know Elena’s true nature and confess to having lured her to warn as well as invite her to a rare meeting of the supernatural races, Elena doesn’t know whether to laugh in disbelief or slash their throats - a task she finds impossible once the witches bind her with their spells.Ībashed but convinced, Elena, together with her Pack Alpha, comes to the gathering headed by the witches Paige Winterbourne and her aging aunt Ruth, and attended by other mythical creatures such as demons and vampires. In this second, highly anticipated continuation of the series, Elena, in her role of keeping track of non-Pack mutts, comes across an auction of surprisingly authentic evidence of werewolf existence. Kelley Armstrong debuted the "Women of the Otherworld" series with the spectacular book Bitten, in which readers were introduced to the concept and lives of werewolves living among ordinary humans today through the struggles and adventures of the unforgettable protagonist Elena Michaels - an unsuspecting young woman who’s bitten by her werewolf lover and transforms, thus becoming the only female werewolf in existence.
