Elyse knows what it means to keep a secret. She's been keeping secrets her whole life. Two, actually. First, that she ages five times slower than the average person, so that while she looks eighteen years old, she's closer to eighty. Second, that her blood has a mysterious power to heal. For Elyse, these things don't make her special. They make life dangerous. After the death of her parents, she's been careful to keep her secret as closely guarded as possible. Now, only one other person in the world knows about her age and ability. Or so she thinks. Elyse is not the only one keeping secrets. There are others like her all over the world, descendants of the very people the Greeks considered gods. She is one of them, and they have been waiting for her for a long time. Among so many of her kind, she should not be very remarkable--except for the prophecy. Some believe she will put an end to traditions, safeguarded by violence, which have oppressed her people for centuries. Others are determined to keep her from doing just that. But for Elyse, the game is just beginning--and she's not entirely willing to play by their rules.

Am citit despre ea pe Goodreads. Imi place mult coperta. Descendenti...hmm... nu tu vampiri si varcolaci. Ce bine!!! Se pare ca autorii abordeaza si alte teme.
Imi place foarte mult iddea cu varsta e ceva nou(cine nu vrea sa fie ca Elyse noi inca mai suntem in certatari in cautarea elixiluri tinereti nu vesnice macar partiale=)) )... iar de coperta nu am nimic de obiectat atat de simpla, pe atat de elganta si frumoasa, imi plac jocurile de culoare , in diferite tonuri de verde.
Pare o carte Minunata!;x
Superba coperta, nu pot spune nimic.
Am citit multe recenzii despre ea pe Goodreads acum :) imi place ca are,totusi, un subiect inedit, mai rar intalnit
Cred ca seria asta mi-ar placea foarte mult! Sunt bucuroasa ca a abordat o alta tema autoarea. Mi se pare interesant cum poti sa imbatranesti asa de lent! Si coperta este minunata! Imi plac mult culorile si apreciez ca nu au exagerat cu nimic!
mai trec una pe lista! :D
Mai multi au trecut-o. Inclusiv eu.
deci iti pot spune ca m-am indragostit de acesta descriere, sper sa apara si o bunaciune pe acolo
In general apar. Nu cred ca aceasta carte reprezinta o exceptie.
nu am mai auzit de carte..dar imi place foarte mult...mai ales numele de Elyse:X..si coperta e draguta iar descrierea chiar e interesanta si diferita:)
