Iron Kin (The Half-Light City, #3) / The Half-Light City (ePub)

Dive into this darkly intense and steamy romantasy series from RITA® Award nominated author M.J. Scott…

In a city of enchantment and perilous alliances, the divide between Fae, humans, vampire Blood Lords, and shape-shifting Beast Kind grows deeper by the day. As a metalmage, my family want me to stay safe and do as I'm told. To be a good girl. But a perfect reputation is meaningless when peace is hanging by a thread.

The humans are grasping any advantage to help them prevent a war. Like the visions of the future that Fen, a half-Fae seer can show them. But to Fen, his power is torture, wild and uncontrolled. Dangerous enough that he wears iron-deadly to Fae-to quell his magic and save his sanity. Until the night we meet and discover that somehow, my magic calms his. Which might just save us all.

Fen is as wild at heart as his power. Untameable. Unpredictable. Not a man a good girl should want anything to do with. But to help him-and my city-I have to touch him. And every touch makes me burn hotter than the magic I wield.

I know I need to keep my head and guard my heart but playing safe won't stop a war. And as the city begins to shatter, survival might mean giving up the future I think Fen and I could share…

What people are saying about M.J. Scott

Shadow Kin

"M. J. Scott's Shadow Kin is a steampunky romantic fantasy with vampires that doesn't miss its mark."-#1 New York Times bestselling author Patricia Briggs

"Rife with political intrigue and magic, Shadow Kin is hard to put down right from the start."-Romantic Times

Blood Kin

"… just as entertaining and immensely readable as Shadow Kin. . . . Smart, funny, dangerous, addictive, and seductive in its languorous sexuality, I can think of no better book to recommend to anyone to read this summer. I loved every single page except the last one, and that's only because it meant the story was done. For now, at least."-seattlepi.com

"… kick-butt action, fantastic characters, romance that makes the heart beat fast, and a plot that was fast-paced all the way through. Even more so the villains are meaner, stronger, and downright fantastic-I never knew what they were going to do next. You don't want to miss out on this series."-Seeing Night Book Reviews

Iron Kin

"Scott's writing is rather superb." -Bookworm Blues

Fire Kin

"Entertaining…Scott's dramatic story will satisfy both fans and new readers."-Publishers Weekly
