Lords of the Darkyn turns attention to the figures at the top of the Darkyn hierarchy. The three books, Nightborn, Nightbred, and Nightbound, follow Darkyn lords whose stories weren’t fully explored in the original series, giving the world’s power structure more depth.

Published in 2012 and 2013, this series rounds out Lynn Viehl’s extended Darkyn universe alongside Kyndred and The Youngbloods. Together the spinoffs add considerable range to a mythology she first established with If Angels Burn in 2005.
