En esta tan anticipada decimoquinta novela de la saga de los Inmortales después de la oscuridad,  la autora de los más vendidos en la lista del New York Time, Kresley Cole, teje una historia sensual sobre un poderoso guerrero lleno de cicatrices internas y externas y una seductora hechicera que tiene el poder de sanarlo –o derrotarlo para siempre.

Obsesión eterna
Como niño, Thronos, el señor de Skye Hall, amaba a Lanthe, una traviesa niña hechicera que hizo que se cuestionara todo lo relacionado con su clan de los vrekeners. Pero, cuando ambos quedan atrapados en mitad de la guerra entre sus familias, la tragedia cae sobre ellos, convirtiendo a Thronos y Lanthe en amargos enemigos. Aunque han pasado siglos, nada ha podido enfriar su ardiente necesidad por la bella hechicera que llenó su cuerpo de cicatrices –y dejó una marca más profunda en su alma.

Anhelo infinito
Lanthe, una vez una formidable hechicera, lucha ahora por reclamar sus dotes perdidas mientras busca el amor y la aceptación de un sinfín de pretendientes inmortales equivocados. Sin embargo, nunca ha olvidado a Thronos, el magnífico chico con ojos de plata que la protegió hasta que la arrancaron del refugio de sus brazos. En solo una terrible noche, todo cambió entre ellos. Ahora él es un conocido señor de la guerra que busca una sangrienta venganza contra ella y la persigue sin descanso.

¿Puede el calor del deseo arder más fuerte que la venganza?
Con sus familias atrapadas en una batalla sin fin, ¿sucumbirán Thronos y Lanthe al brutal caos que amenaza todo aquello que aprecian o el frágil lazo que formaron hace tanto tiempo, despertará una pasión suficientemente fuerte como para soportar las dudas más oscuras?

Tonight, Under the Covers has exclusive access to Thronos Talos, Prince of the Skye! We join him and Melanthe in the feasting hall of Nereus, the sea god. Though Thronos is generally a reserved and discreet Vrekener, he’s been enjoying demon brew for the first time, so prepare for a particularly candid talk.

Francesca: Welcome to Under the Covers, Thronos! We are so excited to meet with you in Nereus’s Lorean-filled lair and can’t wait for the whole world to learn all about your incredible journey to win your mate. But let’s help readers get to know you a little bit better.

Thronos: Very well. But I’ll only answer questions until Melanthe finishes her mission tonight.

Mission?

Thronos: She’s coaxing Nereus into letting us use his realm portal. [gazes at her across the boisterous table] The god won’t know what hit him.

I’ll definitely stay tuned. So . . . what was your first thought when you saw Lanthe for the first time?

Thronos: [drinks deep] I remember spotting this beautiful creature from the air and swooping in for a better look. I couldn’t stop staring at her face, couldn’t even catch my breath. All I wanted was to take her within my wings, protecting her forever.

Then I crashed head first into a tree.

And your favorite thing about her is?

Thronos: Melanthe is passionate about life, about love, about protecting her family. Her passion burns hotter than Pandemonia’s lava rivers. A man could happily lose himself in a woman of such fire. [drinks deeper] And I intend to.

If you were to write your own “dating guide to the Immortals” handbook, what would be your number one tip?

Thronos: Never give up. I waited five hundred years to know my fated female. For just another taste of what she’s given me, I’d wait five hundred more.

Is there a character from another book or series that you would love to meet? If so, who would it be and where would you go?

Thronos: I wouldn’t mind meeting King Rydstrom the Good, my future brother-in-law. He seems to be an honorable male, as far as rage demons go. Maybe I’d show him around Pandemonia.

What was the last thing you did that you think readers would consider “badass”?

Thronos: Alas, Melanthe has just cast me her beguiling grin, and now I’ve forgotten the question.

How do you feel about hornjobs? (I kid, I kid ;P) No, but seriously….

Thronos: I shouldn’t reveal this [swigs brew, lowers voice], but Melanthe recently introduced me to them. She told me loves to steer me when . . . well, we’re in the throes. [clearly recalling some interlude with a mind-boggled expression] By all the gods, I pity hornless males.

What are three things you don’t leave home without?

Thronos: Melanthe is all I need. Compared to her, everything else matters not.

Wherever she goes, so I go.

Why do you think readers will love DARK SKYE?

Thronos: At last, there’s an account of our epic journey, of an eternal partnership forged across time and realms. I understand little about females, but surely they would enjoy reading about a devoted male, one who’ll stop at nothing to protect the sorceress he treasures above all things.

Give us the dirty on Kresley Cole. Surely she can’t be as perfect as she seems! ;P

Thronos: Lore rumor holds that she’s anything but! And I personally suspect she has some Valkyrie in her line, which would explain much—and can only spell trouble. Best steer clear of that one.
