About this audiobook

A great journey…

A new love….

A dark secret revealed.

Evreux, France, 1788: Before she is Zoey's favorite professor and the House of Night's powerful horse mistress… Lenobia is just a normal 16-year-old girl – with enough problems to last a lifetime. As the illegitimate daughter of a powerful baron, she has never quite belonged, and instead has to watch her spoiled half-sister, Cecile, get anything she wants. As if that's not enough, her remarkable beauty draws unwanted attention wherever she goes. For once, she would like to just fit in.

But when fate intervenes, Lenobia suddenly finds herself surrounded by other girls, on a ship bound for New Orleans, where they will be married off to the city's richest Frenchmen. And they're not alone…. An evil bishop who is skilled in Dark magic makes the same journey. His appetite for lovely young women makes him dangerous – most of all to Lenobia, who caught his eye back in France. So she remains hidden, making secret visits to the ship's stables, where a handsome young man and his beautiful Percheron horses soon capture her attention.

Will they make it to land before the bishop discovers her true identity and a powerful evil breaks loose? And will Lenobia follow her heart, even if it puts lives at risk? Find out more about one of your favorite professors in Lenobia's Vow, the next heart-thumping House of Night Novella by PC Cast and Kristin Cast.

    This follows the intriguing beginning of Lenobia. Let's us into the mind of a 16 year old Lenobia in the 1700's and where her strength begins. This is by far my favourite novella of The House of Night series and I can't wait for the next installment.

    I really liked the cover of this novella. I think it is awesome that they put Lenobia on the cover with her crescent moon filled in and the other tattoos that go along with it. I also love that the cover has a vine design on the front, spine, and back of the book. The cover is in a matte finish and the title is in a glossy finish. Onto the story, I really like that this novella is about how Lenobia become House of Night fledgling and eventually a fully changed vampire. It made me wonder what her life would be like if Lenobia’s mother hadn’t made her take the place of the other girl, Cecile. But in a way I’m glad that her mother made her do it, because now I know how she became marked. I thought the ending was sad though. I won’t spoil it for anyone who hasn’t read it, but I wasn’t expecting that ending I will just say that. Overall, I enjoyed this quick little read. I highly recommend it to anyone who is reading the House of Night series or is thinking about reading the House of Night series.

    It was AMAZING to see Lenobia’s strength at such a young age. It’s also easy to see why Lenobia doesn’t fall into the darkness that Neferet brings to the House of Night. Her love interest is a really sweet person, and overall explains why she has the feelings she does towards relationships with humans. He is a Creole, and I swear every time he talked I heard the voice in my head as Renee Lanier from True Blood. Yes I know lame, but the voice fit with his personality. I definitely recommend this book to the fans of the House of Night series. You won’t be disappointed, I promise!

    Lenobia’s Vow takes us through her life. She is in charge of the stable at the House of Night, and teaches riding. Lenobia’s past was emotional. Loving someone so much and only having them taken from you is horrible. She went through some terrible things growing up and as an adult that led up to her being being marked. Lenobia’s love for Martin was amazing. She is a tremendous asset to the House of Night with her affinity with horses and is a wonderful role model for the students. This was an enjoyable read and I like learning more about the professors that are Zoe’s ally’s. Give this a try…

    I wasn't quite sure what to make of this story at first. I enjoyed knowing Lenobia's background, but I wish that there had been a bit more of a tie to the House of Night outside of the ending. It would have been nice to have more her background at the House of Night as well. Overall, I did enjoy the story, but found that I was wanting more.I hope that the next novella(s) in the series give us more of what we're looking for.

    P. C. Cast does a wonderful job telling Lenobia's tale. I've liked Lenobia's character since her introduction in the House of Night novels. I'm glad Zoey has someone like Lenobia she can talk to when the plot thickens. I really like that Lenobia has an affinity for horses; I feel a pull towards animals as well. :) This is a good way to keep the readers entertained and connected to the House of Night world while we await book 10.

    This litttle book is so full of interesting stories, and action about each character in the house of night novel. I think these little books might be better then the actual "House of Night" books themselvs. I want to buy more books on each of the house of night professors.

    Lenobia's story starts in 1788. She is a young girl on the verge of womanhood. On a boat headed to New Orleans. But danger lurks aboard the ship. Soon after making land she is Marked to be a fledgling. Her world opens up to good and bad things.I was excited to see Lenobia would be the next in the novellas. She is one of the most intriguing characters in the House of Night. I've always thought her class would be a fun one to take part in. This second novella in the series is a great read, so far it's my favorite of the novellas. I loved the connection between Lenobia and Martin. Lenobia's Vow is one of hardship, first loves, loss and new beginnings. A vibrant story that has wonderful description. Mostly it is set aboard the ship that is headed to New Orleans. I was quickly taken with the story.Lenobia's Vow is read by Caitlin Davies. This is the third time I've listen to Ms. Davies on audio and she does an amazing job each time.
