When the world of the Faeries began to collapse, they sought refuge in the only place they could. That salvation lay in the hope of resurrection and rebirth. The Ancient One spread the souls of the Faerie across the Universe, placing them as seeds that would grow into mighty Dungeons, each a potential location for their people to be renewed. No one on Earth was prepared for Dungeons to start popping up and causing technology to degrade. It was something they were going to have to adjust too, because Earth would never be the same.

Three birds with one stone seems like a pretty good deal. Their quest leads them to the Shalthaes Woodlands, a.k.a., the Dead Forest. Somewhere inside lies the lost city of Fyeth Elunore and its ancient library that may hold answers.

Dans une Double Breytain en plein bouleversement industriel, l'effervescence règne autour du manaschiste, combustible fossile dont l'utilisation révolutionne le monde en cette fin de XIXe siècle. Au cœur du duché de "Heaven Forest", peu importent les mutations sur la population engendrée par l'exploitation de ce minerai, les autorités ont d'autres priorités, telle la sécurité du port où la mafia sévit. Ainsi, quand le cadavre d'un inconnu est retrouvé mutilé près des docks, on confie l'affaire - certes singulière, mais de faible importance - à l'inspecteur détective Rhys Overlake, arrivé le jour même en ville.

My idea of a good time used to be a rom-com and pint of ice cream. But when a lethally sexy fae king kidnaps me, that changes. I’m forced to compete in a deadly competition to become his queen. Now, my idea of a good time is surviving the day. The Court of Starlight and Darkness is a gorgeous place, but I can’t stay.
