Hunter's Moon (Gollancz S. F. Ser.)
by David Devereux"My name is unimportant, but you can call me Jack. I'm a musician by choice, a magician by profession, and a bastard by disposition.I'd been doing the magic thing for about five years when they found me. They said I had a talent, that I was smart enough and fit enough and enough of a shit that I could serve my country in a way most people never even get to hear about. And I did want to serve my country, didn't I?I didn't really want to contemplate what might happen if I said no."And so Jack found himself on the front line of a secret war that most people simply wouldn't believe was possible. Working for a secret organisation tasked with defending our country from whatever supernatural threat faces it. MI5 know nothing about and would laugh if they found out. Well at first they would ...Whether wiping out a group of demon summoners, infiltrating a coven determined to assassinate the PM or rooting out a neo-nazi sect who are trying to bring back Hitler from the dead Jack is a very modern sort of magician - trained in a variety of the dark arts but also a dab hand with a Heckler and Koch, skilled in unarmed combat and electronic surveillance.David Devereux has combined the action writing of McNab and Ryan with dark supernatural thrills and produced a blistering new breed of supernatural thriller. This is Dennis Wheatley for the 21st century.

Hunters' Academy - Akademie der Jäger: Die Aufnahmeprüfung (Hunters' Academy - Akademie der Jäger #1)
by Ivy HearneÜberleb oder stirb. Es ist kein großartiges Schulmotto – nicht so inspirierend wie zum Beispiel „Lasst uns Licht in die Welt hinaustragen“ oder „Wissen ist Freiheit“ oder einfach nur „Licht und Wahrheit“. Das sind alles echte Schulmottos. Genauso wie dieses. Es ist das Motto der Hunters’ Academy – der Akademie der Jäger. Fast vier Jahre, seit ihrem zwölften Lebensjahr, leidet Kacela DeLuca schon an heftigen Migräneanfällen. Eines Tages erfährt sie, dass ihre Kopfschmerzen von ungenutzten übersinnlichen Fähigkeiten verursacht werden. Sie hat die Wahl, entweder weiterzuleiden oder alles, was sie kennt, zurückzulassen und die Hunters’ Academy zu besuchen. Die Sache hat nur einen einzigen Haken: Wenn sie die Aufnahmeprüfung nicht besteht, könnte sie sterben. Ein Teenager mit blockierten paranormalen Fähigkeiten, ein Panther, der ein Gestaltwandler ist, aber seine menschliche Form nicht annehmen kann – oder will –, eine geheime Akademie und die Macht, die ganze Welt zu beschützen … wenn Kacie ihr Potenzial freisetzen kann, bevor es zu spät ist. Fans von „Vampire Academy“, „Chroniken der Unterwelt“, Harry Potter und „Dragon School“ werden „Hunters’ Academy“ lieben! „Die Aufnahmeprüfung“ ist die erste Folge der Reihe „Hunters’Academy – Akademie der Jäger“.

Alla vigilia del suo sedicesimo compleanno, apprende che sono il risultato di alcune abilità soprannaturali latenti. Si ritrova di fronte a una scelta: continuare a soffrire o lasciarsi tutto alle spalle per unirsi all’Hunters’ Academy. L’unico problema? Se non supererà l’esame, morirà. Un’adolescente con dei poteri che non può utilizzare, una pantera mutaforma che non può – o meglio che non vuole – trasformarsi, un’accademia segreta e il potere di difendere il mondo intero… solamente se Kacie riuscirà a liberare il suo potenziale prima che sia troppo tardi. I fan di Vampire Academy, Shadowhunters, Harry Potter e Dragon School ameranno Hunters’ Academy! L’esame è il primo capitolo della Hunters’ Academy!
