This sexy and spellbinding new series centres on the Original vapire family and the dangerous vampire/werewolf hybrid, Niklaus "Klaus" Mikaelson, who, along with his siblings Elijah and Rebekah, helped build New Orleans' French Quarter, only to be exiled a century ago. But a coven of witches desperate to reclaim their power lures the Mikaelsons back to their ancestral home, where the charismatic and diabolical vampire Marcel--Klaus' former protege--rules with his vampire army.

The Originals bring along caskets full of revenge, unrequited love and not-so-secret plans to reclaim the heart and soul of this thriving city and a long-smouldering war between vampires, witches, wolves and humans soon erupts. Blood ties are strong, but the lust for power--and revenge--may prove stronger.
