Publisher Description
Deirdre always thought she was a human—until her destructive faerie magic was unlocked.
Seventeen-year-old Deirdre leaves the orphanage behind to study in Neo-London, a city teeming with conflict between humans and Fae. She crosses paths with two brothers, Iain and James Callaghan. Iain is a soldier in the Iron Guard trying to keep his broken family together. Fourteen-year-old James is fascinated by faeries and plans to run away to find his disappeared mother.
After Deirdre develops uncontrollable magical abilities, she becomes the target of their father: Alan Callaghan, an extremist general who drains faeries' magic to fuel weapons of war. When he frames her for a treasonous crime, she and James escape together. Iain intends to bring his brother home... and capture Deirdre at all costs.
Readers of Holly Black's The Darkest Part of the Forest and classic folklore and fairytales will enjoy this series filled with epic adventure, humor, and clean slow burn romance.
Customer Reviews
Completely Amazing
I knew from the second I read the first sentence that this was the kind of fantasy book I had been longing for. The world building and intrigue happened for the story right off the bat.
The only issue was that at the beginning of the story there were a lot of shifts in perspectives that made it hard to keep going. However, later on, these shifts served the story well.
Overall, the more I read it, the more I enjoyed it, and the amount I read each day accelerated.
great title first captured my interest
