From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Immortals, Alyson Noël, comes Fateda breathtaking new saga brimming with magic, mystery, and an intoxicating love story that will steal your heart away. Meet The Soul Seekers.

Strange things are happening to Daire Santos. Crows mock her, glowing people stalk her, time stops without warning, and a beautiful boy with unearthly blue eyes haunts all her dreams. Fearing for her daughter’s sanity, Daire’s mother sends her to live with the grandmother she’s never met. A woman who recognizes the visions for what they truly are—the call to her destiny as a Soul Seeker—one who can navigate the worlds between the living and dead.

There on the dusty plains of Enchantment, New Mexico, Daire sets out to harness her mystical powers. But it’s when she meets Dace, the boy from her dreams, that her whole world is shaken to its core. Now Daire is forced to discover if Dace is the one guy she's meant to be with...or if he’s allied with the enemy she's destined to destroy.

Praise for Fated

"Noël has done it again! With fantastic characters and an amazing plot, FATED will suck you in and leave you breathless.  Noël is a master with words, and readers will realize anything in possible in her world.  With passion and thrills around each corner, this book is a must read." – Romantic Times (Top Pick!)

"Atmospheric and enjoyable...Noël's many fans will be eager to find out what happens next." –Publishers Weekly

"In Noël's capable hands, Daire straddles the otherworldly elements of her calling as a shaman..and the perils of high school often feel as threatening as navigating the Lower-, Upper- and Middleworld that Daire's destiny as a shaman requires of her. Readers will feel the pull of Daire's quest just as forcefully as Daire herself does, and will count the days until the release of Echo." --Maximum Shelf

"Two boys, one light and one dark, factor heavily into the intriguing, twisting story line, which is sure to draw Noël’s numerous fans." --Booklist

"This book is amazing.  I bet you've read a million reviews where the reviewer says this book is like nothing they've ever read before.  Well with FATED that is honestly how I felt.  If you're looking for a new series to get stuck into 'The Soul Seekers' is out of this world." –Dark Readers

 "I found myself unable to put this book down, completely captivated by the narration and the beautifully crafted world. I definitely recommend FATED. It was a refreshing YA fantasy with new elements I’ve never before." –Love, Literature, Art and Reason

"The first Soul Seekers is a superb thriller starring a “troubled” young lady who learns she holds the fate of the world in her hands. The key to this absorbing tale is the heroine who makes the Noël mythos seem genuine as she enters the underworld while wondering who she can trust. Filled with twists, this is a winning opening act." – Alternative Worlds

"I just finished Fated just a couple of minutes ago and I have to say, 'Alyson Noël has surpassed all of my exceptions with a new world filled with magick, trust, and love.' . . . I absolutely adored the characters, especially Daire and, of course, DACE! I completely and utterly fell in love with all of the characters and, yes, even the bad ones. This novel has everything and anything you would want. I found myself not reading the pages fast enough, and completely devouring this book much faster than I thought. It just mesmerizes me how Alyson can create a world filled with fast-pacing, heart-breaking plots along with awesome characters and such a magical world. It's just I'm stunned, and absolutely speechless but one thing is for sure. Daire isn't over with her story just yet. Oh no, it is just beginning and might I say her the end of her first adventure has left with so any questions and I am already dying to read the next book in the series . . Echo. . . Trust me, really trust me, when I say you will not regret it!"
   —Cover Analysis

"I loved this book. All the characters were beautifully developed including some of the minor characters. . . I for one had high expectations of this book because of EVERMORE and FATED defiantly met those standards." —Flamingnet

". . .I loved it! The world-building in FATED is fantastic and Alyson Noel has undoubtedly given it a lot of thought. The paranormal elements are unique and the storyline is unbelievably captivating. . . I was up until 5AM reading FATED and let me tell you, it is EPIC! I loved Alyson's writing, her descriptions were vivid and managed to evoke some emotion in me, which doesn't happen often. The plot is amazing and the rich Native American history along with the supernatural elements of the book, just made it even better...FATED is a story of pure magic—breathtaking and wonderful, all at once. Soul Seekers a series that I'm definitely going to keep reading."
   —Kindle & Me

"FATED was absolutely original in its own way! From the vivid descriptions to the spiritual world the author, Alyson Noël, has cleverly created, I was so intrigued and stunned by this book that I can't wait to see where Noël takes this series to because she sure as hell has a winner right here!" 4.5 stars
   —Tales of the Inner Book Fanatic

"This novel is something different than anything I've encountered. FATED has a rich mythology, full of spirit animals, spirit journeys, fate, soul-seeking, and of course, good and evil. I'd recommend Fated to those who want to read something a little different. I urge you to give this novel a try."
   —Thirteen Days Later
