Über diesen Titel
“Beautifully written and deliciously complex…I couldn’t get enough.” (Nicki Pau Preto, author of the Crown of Feathers series)
The Cruel Prince meets City of Bones in this thrilling urban fantasy set in the magical underworld of Toronto that follows a queer cast of characters racing to stop a serial killer whose crimes could expose the hidden world of faeries to humans.
Choose your player.
The “ironborn” half-fae outcast of her royal fae family.
A tempestuous Fury, exiled to Earth from the Immortal Realm and hellbent on revenge.
A dutiful fae prince, determined to earn his place on the throne.
The prince’s brooding guardian, burdened with a terrible secret.
For centuries, the Eight Courts of Folk have lived among us, concealed by magic and bound by law to do no harm to humans. This arrangement has long kept peace in the Courts - until a series of gruesome and ritualistic murders rocks the city of Toronto and threatens to expose faeries to the human world.
Four queer teens, each who hold a key piece of the truth behind these murders, must form a tenuous alliance in their effort to track down the mysterious killer behind these crimes. If they fail, they risk the destruction of the faerie and human worlds alike. If that’s not bad enough, there’s a war brewing between the Mortal and Immortal Realms, and one of these teens is destined to tip the scales. The only question is: which way?
Wish them luck. They’re going to need it.

My new favorite book
This is grand. This is amazing. I love everything about this. Beautifully written, complex, intriguing, inclusive, diverse, just all around beautiful. I absolutely can not wait for the sequel.

Sadly a big disappointment for me
Nobody is more shocked than I am that I didn't enjoy this book. Other reviews put it into words better than me but I just was not captured by it. Neither by the story nor the characters, I wanted to like it so much but I didn't. I had to pause several times just because I got so very bored.
All four main characters are somewhat stereotypical and after the first half of the book none seem to have any personality beyond that whatsoever and it feels like such a missed opportunity. It could have been a book about found family and being friends or falling in love against odds but instead, it's just a whole bunch of characters saying unnecessary stuff and running around aimlessly. I also feel like neither pair had any chemistry whatsoever and it's a bit of wasted potential with the main characters only meeting and grouping up at the very end. The character progression does just not feel natural.
I want to support this book because I feel like queer fantasy books are so important and I want there to be so many more in the future, I just sadly feel like one fell somewhat flat.
