On Bella's 18th birthday, Edward Cullen sweeps her off to his unorthodox family home (in the first book readers learn that the Cullens are vampires who hunt animals rather than humans) for a birthday celebration. But when Bella unwraps a gift and gets a paper cut, her drops of blood set off a chaos that culminates in the Cullens leaving town. Edward exits on page 73, and does not reappear for nearly 400 pages, except for his voice in Bella's head when she embarks on dangerous adventures, such as motorcycle riding and cliff diving. Instead, this book focuses on Jake, her friend from La Push, who has some unusual traits of his own. A Quileute legend that he confides in Bella in the first book comes to the fore here (and ties in with the title), and Bella is tracked down by the "bad" vampires from the first book, who seek revenge. [This is the second installment of Meyer's bestselling series, Twilight, which is quite popular in Spanish. This movie tiein edition will likely be in demand.—Ed.] [PW 7/17/06]Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
