Blood Magic: Stranger Magics, Book Four

Ruling Faerie is hard. Sharing Faerie is harder…One year after killing his rival king, Oberon, Coilean wakes from his long sleep to find that matters aren’t quite as he left them in Faerie. His teenage brother, Aiden, has kept his throne warm, but Aiden’s brief reign hasn’t been without consequence. After months of searching, Aiden has yet to locate Oberon’s heir, the one faerie powerful enough to control his unruly court-a faerie, it so happens, who wants nothing to do with the mess Oberon left behind.Then there’s the matter of Aiden’s wizard sister, Helen Carver, the heir apparent to the Arcanum, who’s about to marry Joey Bolin. For some of the Council magi, it’s abhorrent that their future leader is tying herself to a mundane, but it’s almost treasonous that her groom still lives in Coilean’s backyard.Making matters worse, Coilean receives tidings from the Dark Company, the mortal realm’s mercenary spymasters. His daughter, Moyna, who carries a murderous grudge, now leads the remnants of Mab’s shattered court, and she has new friends who will stop at nothing to reshape the magical world.War is brewing both within Faerie and beyond its borders, and keeping the peace will take new alliances and teamwork. But even that might not be enough to stop the enemy in the shadows.
