Dorina Basarab
In the dark, seductive world of the Dorina Basarab series, danger is never far behind, and survival requires more than just strength—it demands the ability to navigate the treacherous web of supernatural politics, family loyalty, and the looming shadow of your own darkest instincts. The series follows Dorina Basarab, a half-vampire, half-human mercenary with a deadly past, as she wrestles with the curse of her heritage and the violent world that comes with it.
Dorina is not your typical heroine. She’s a fierce, battle-hardened warrior who knows how to take down enemies with precision, but she’s also caught between the worlds of the living and the dead. With a lineage tied to the ancient and powerful Basarab family, she struggles with the constant pull of her vampire nature, a force that threatens to consume her and everything she loves. As she faces monstrous creatures, political intrigue, and the haunting echoes of her family's legacy, Dorina must fight not only for survival but for control over her own identity.
Dorina Basarab consists of seven primary books, and includes five additional books that complement the series but are not considered mandatory reads and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
