Mon, 28 Jan 2019 14:20:46 +0200

In Neo-London, fairy tales are real. The kind with monsters, magic, and dark family secrets.

When her destructive magic is unlocked, 17-year-old orphan Deirdre discovers she's a faery. But it is dangerous to be a faery in a country where humans and Fae are caught in decades-long cold war, and Deirdre soon catches the attention of Alan Callaghan, an extreme anti-faery general.

His sons, Iain and James, cross paths with Deirdre. Iain is a rookie soldier in the Iron Guard trying to atone for past mistakes and keep his family together. James is a fourteen-year-old aspiring scholar fascinated by faeries and eager to leave his life in the city behind.

As Alan conspires to control the city, Deirdre and James plot to leave, seeking answers about her magic and James's disappeared mother. However, when Deirdre is framed for a treasonous crime, their quest for answers becomes a desperate quest for freedom.

Who can Deirdre trust when she fears the very magic inside of her?

Though Deirdre and James have escaped Neo-London and survived the monstrous Fachan, dangers both human and Fae close in on them.

General Alan Callaghan, James's father and the leader of the Iron Guard, hunts Deirdre to harness her magic as a weapon against the faery Courts. And a dark curse is attached to James, connected with the disappearance of his mother.

But their greatest worries are close at hand—James's brother Iain, a soldier sent to capture Deirdre, is traveling with them.

After discovering his father's role in the king's assassination, Iain's loyalty to his father and the army is tested. Although he is wary of Deirdre's powerful and unstable magic, he believes in her innocence. But by aiding Deirdre, a fugitive, Iain risks treason.

With the appearance of Alvey, a young half-elf runaway from the Summer Court, new truths about Seelie faeries come to...

Welcome to the Morris Museum of Supernatural Curiosities, where faeries roam and the museum's enigmatic host hides a monstrous secret.

Before he became the Master and emissary of the Unseelie Court, Cecil Morris strove to make a name for himself in a bustling Victorian-Era London. Vowing to leave all magic behind, Cecil opens a museum of Fae to share his knowledge with the world with the help of his friend and benefactor, Sir Felix Todd.

Recently widowed, Felix has now remarried the young and mysterious Madam Hazel, an event that summons his eldest daughter, Lucy, to London. Lucy is plagued by nightmares of a terrifying horned figure, and if she ever hopes to understand her dark visions, she must confide in Cecil—a man she feels as much contempt for as she does attraction. To the surprise of everyone, the stern Lucy soon becomes governess to Vera, Cecil's ward and unusual child with a magical musical talent.

But when a vicious animal attack...
