Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fast-paced, razor-sharp fantasy with a grimdark edge is “one part China Miéville, one part Andrew Lang, one part James M. Cain” (Locus). In a brutal city where goblins rule, the fae have had their magic stolen and seek solace in the darkest corners of the metropolis—but now, they’ve had enough. The Iron City is a prison, a maze, an industrial blight. It is the result of a war that saw the goblins grind the fae beneath their collective boot heels. And tonight, it is also a city that churns with life. A young fae tries to make his fortune one drug deal at a time. A goblin princess searches for a path between her own dreams and others’ expectations, while her bodyguard decides who to kill first. An artist hunts for his own voice. An old soldier starts a new revolution. A a young rebel finds fresh ways to fight. And an old goblin dreams of reclaiming her power over them all. On this night, all their stories twist together, wrapped up around a single bag of Dust—the only drug that can still fuel fae magic. Its fate and theirs will change the Iron City forever.
