Crescent City

Crescent City follows Bryce Quinlan, a half-Fae, half-human woman living in the sprawling, neon-lit metropolis of Midgard's most dangerous city. After a brutal attack kills her best friend, Bryce is thrust into a dark conspiracy involving ancient magic, warring supernatural factions, and forbidden powers she never knew she possessed. As she navigates the city's treacherous underworld—where vampires, shifters, angels, and demons coexist in uneasy tension—Bryce discovers her bloodline connects her to cosmic forces far greater than herself. Alongside a brooding half-Fae warrior and other unlikely allies, she must uncover the truth behind the attack, master her devastating magical abilities, and confront enemies both mortal and divine. The series blends urban fantasy with epic world-building, exploring themes of identity, power, and survival in a richly detailed paranormal landscape where nothing is as it seems and every choice carries devastating consequences.

As she navigates treacherous politics and brutal trials, she uncovers dark secrets about the faerie kingdoms and her own hidden power. Caught between her human identity and an overwhelming connection to the faerie world, Feyre must decide where her loyalty lies while facing a looming war that threatens both realms. The story weaves romance, high-stakes fantasy, and self-discovery as Feyre transforms from a desperate mortal into a force to be reckoned with, all while grappling with love, betrayal, and her place in a world far more complex and dangerous than she ever imagined.

Throne of Glass

Ancient evil stirs beneath the castle, and she may be the only one powerful enough to stop it.
