Walking in the Night. Book 1: Reapers of Suffering

Here is only day — the time of the living. Night — the time of the dead. As soon as the sun sets behind the horizon, werewolves, reanimated corpses, and bloodsuckers come for the scent of a human. Only the guardians — people blessed with a special gift — can protect against the merciless evil. However, year by year, fewer of them are born, and not everyone can endure the harsh science, and those who can often perish too frequently. Young Tamira and Lesana are taken against their will from their homes to the grim Citadel, where they will learn to fight the undead. Only the shy Ailish goes there with great eagerness. All three will face harsh training and years of deprivation, but none of the young novices even suspect what they will have to sacrifice for the good of others.
