Lilith Saintcrow

Book - 2016

"New York Times Bestselling author Lilith Saintcrow returns to dark fantasy with the second novel in her Gallow & Ragged series where the faery world inhabits diners, dive bars and trailer parks. Robin Ragged has revenge to wreak and redemption to steal. She knows the source of the plague ravaging the sidhe of both Courts, and that knowledge might be enough to buy off even the Hunt if she can just survive. The poison in Jeremy Gallow's wound is slowly killing him. Old friends turn traitor and old enemies return, but he'll kill whoever he has to, to see his Robin safe. In the diners and trailer parks, the dive bars and greenbelts, the sidhe are hunting. Mercy and disaster follow in their wake. War looms, and on a rooftop ...in the heart of the city, the most dangerous sidhe of all is given new life. He has only one thought, this new hunter: Where is the Ragged? The Wild Hunt is riding.

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Saintcrow's second Gallow & Ragged urban fantasy (after Trailer Park Fae) uses lush, striking prose to disguise a slow story. The entire book is about people chasing and fleeing from one another, and most of them wind up where they started. Robin Ragged, who's half-human and half-Sidhe, discovered the true origin of the disease plaguing the Sidhe's Summer Court. Now she's on the run from both the Queen of Summer and the Lord of Unwinter. After an unpleasant confrontation with conniving near-feral trickster Robin Goodfellow, she retreats. She's pursued by her former brother-in-law, the half-Sidhe Jeremiah Gallow, who wants to protect her, and the scarred Huntsman Alastair Creen, an agent of the queen. Gallow is also being hunted by agents of Unwinter, who want the lord's horn back. The language is gorgeously evocative ("He was no more than a bow upon an instrument's strings, drawing back and forth to sing a cacophony of shattered bone and split flesh"), but there's painfully little character development. Those already invested in the series may be the most intrigued. Agent: Miriam Kriss, Irene Goodman Agency. (Feb.) © Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
