About this product

Product Information

**Read the book and watch the original TV series, now streaming on Peacock!** Join the legion of fans who skyrocketed this six-book series to the top of the charts. Start here, with the first book that kicked off the international #1 bestselling Vampire Academy series. Love and loyalty run deeper than blood. St. Vladimir's Academy isn't just any boarding school--it's a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They've been on the run, but now they're being dragged back to St. Vladimir's--the very place where they're most in danger. . . . Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy's ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi--the world's fiercest and most dangerous vampires--make Lissa one of them forever. **cover image may vary** "We're suckers for it." -- Entertainment Weekly

This story is no ordinary vampire tale. Mead has done her homework on Romanian folklore and Orthodox Catholic saints, and she uses it to weave a unique and mesmerizing mystery with a whodunit ending that even the most skilled detectives will not predict. With social angst that every teenager can appreciate and sexual tension that leaves Stephanie Meyer's Twilight looking like a children's book, this little gem is sure to be a hit. -VOYA Mead's absorbing, debut YA novel, the first in a new series, blends intricately detailed fantasy with a contemporary setting, teen-relevant issues, and a diverse…cast of supporting characters.

Item smaller than pictured but arrived in good shape, though the box was flimsy enough to be bent and torn. Luckily, seller double-wrapped item enough to protect it from whatever rough handling it endured in transit.

    Is not the original copy

    Guess I didn’t read the description. I would not recommend bc I was under the impression that it was one of the original copies. WHY HAVE THAT PICTURE OF THE ORIGINAL COPY WHEN IT TAKES LESS THAN 2 MINUTES TO TAKE A PIC OF THE COPY YOU ARE SELLING AND UPLOAD IT SO THERE IS AN ACCURATE IMAGE OF WHAT TOU ARE SELLING. Really pisses me off that I only needed this book to complete my series and now it’s some knockoff crap. The cover of this book is ugly and has “Now A Major Motion Picture” posted on the front. This was one of my favorite series before they “tried” to make it into a movie series, so receiving this crap copy really pisses me off.

    Awsome Book, Leaves you wanting more!

    The book had a great story line. Very different from other vampire books because in this book there is 3 kinds of vampires, first are the Moroi Vampires, their the good vampires that are actually mortal and do not kill for blood. The Second kind are Dhampir, they are half Moroi and half human and their the guardians of the Moroi. The third ones are Strigoi, which are the evil vampires, you know the ones that kill for blood and can't go in the light and are immortal. This book is writen from the view point of Rose Hathaway, she is a Dhampir and she is going to be Princess Lissa Dragomir's gaurdian, her best friend. But first thay both have to graduate high school. So while having to balance everything thats come along with being in high school they also have to protect Lissa special powers, ...

    vampire academy by richelle mead

    BACK OF BOOK SAYS: LISSA DRAGOMIR is a moroi princess: a mortal vampire with unbreakable bond to the earth's magic. she must be protected at all times from strigoi, the fiercest and most dangerous vampires the ones who never die. the powerful blend of human and vampire blood that flows through rose hathaway lissa's best friend makes her a dhampir. rose is dedicated to a dangerous life protecting lissa from the strigoi who are hell bent on making her one of them. i think my biggest pet peeve can't really be a pet peeve, because it is a book for teenagers so when i say it was too teenagery for me you will understand. this book reminds me alot of new moon etc all. however i did buy frostbite, so we shall see.

    Vampire Academy

    Vampire Academy was an excellent book that thrilled me. I felt like I was actually in rose's body seeing what she felt. This is one of the best books I have read in almost two years. Vampire Academy is much better then any other vampire book I read so far. Dealing with actual teen problems and real life challenges can help me relate to it.
