The Circle

One night, when a strange red moon fills the sky, six school girls find themselves in an abandoned theme park, drawn there by a mysterious force. A student has just been found dead. Everyone suspects suicide. Everyone - except them. 
 
In that derelict fairground an ancient prophecy is revealed. They are The Chosen Ones, a group of witches, bound together by a power, one which could destroy them all. But they soon learn that despite their differences they need each other in order to master the forces that have been awakened within them. 
 
High school is now a matter of life and death. Because the killing has only just begun.

Seven teenage witches are hunted by an ancient evil. The first in Seven teenage witches are hunted by an ancient evil. The second in the gripping Engelsfors Trilogy featuring THE CHOSEN ONES.

The Circle is a gift for those of us who love Buffy. It is impossible to put down and I cannot wait for 2012 when the sequel, Fire, is released

You long for the sequel even before you have finished the book.

What a stunning novel. Raw, real, smart, very thrilling and very, very wicked. The Circle is Twilight by way of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

I have never read a novel for adults that so smoothly reconciles the literary temperaments as The Circle does... This is going to be BIG

Let's not call The Circle Sweden's most talked-about young adult novel right now, but simply Sweden's most famous book right now.

I was hooked ... I was reading as fast as I could to find out what happened next ... The story has good pace and there are some excellent twists to the plot which really surprised me ... Recommended to those who like their heroines with attitude and supernatural stories that will keep you on the edge of your seat!

If you like your YA witch stories with a difference then I suggest picking up a copy The Circle... [I'm]excited for the next one.

The most interesting book to come out of Sweden this year, and it’s not another crime thriller!

[I] enjoyed it so much I can thoroughly recommend this quite superb tale, and urge all to go out and order a copy today. I can’t wait for the second installment.

This was definitely a brilliant book, that is well worth taking the time to invest in and read.

Tense and full of dramatic twists and turns, I look forward to seeing what is next for the witches in part two which is called Fire

Witches are the new black. This is the first in a best-selling Swedish trilogy and it's one you will not want to miss out on... An epic holiday read, it's got a fantastical, interwoven narrative that is just what you need to take you all the from the airport departure lounge to a shady spot beside the pool.

This book was one of those that I just couldn’t put down, and despite its size I found it to be a really quick read. The characters were all so different and yet still fit together in their own way, and I was truly shocked by some of the events. I loved the fact that the book wasn’t too teenage despite taking place in a high school, as the characters have genuine problems to overcome with each trying to find their own way to cope with their powers. A great read, I’m really looking forward to book two!

The final book in the enthralling Engelsfors trilogy 
 
It’s been over a month since the tragedy in Engelsfors High School. But the Chosen Ones have no time to recover before their world is turned upside down again. 
 
In this final instalment that started with The Circle and continued with Fire, questions will be answered; secrets revealed and loyalties tested to the limit. 
 
Time is running out for the Chosen Ones to fulfil the prophecy and save the world, but whether they succeed or not, one thing is certain: 
 
Everything is about to change…
