Liam never knew who his father was. The town of Derry had always assumed that he was the bastard of a protestant - his mother never spoke of him, and Liam assumed he was dead. But when the war between the fallen and the fey began to heat up, Liam and his family are pulled into a conflict that they didn't know existed. A centuries old conflict between supernatural forces seems to mirror the political divisions in 1970's era Ireland, and Liam is thrown headlong into both conflicts! Only the direct intervention of Liam's real father, and a secret catholic order dedicated to fighting "The Fallen" can save Liam... from the mundane and supernatural forces around him, and from the darkness that lurks within him.

Of Blood and Honey isn't a terrible book but it also isn't all that good either. There were bits and pieces that I thoroughly enjoyed and found interesting but altogether the book failed to leave any sort of impression on me. It all felt very formulaic and for the life of me I couldn't connect to ou...
Of Blood and Honey is a raw, bitter and bloodthirsty book. There is an undercurrent of brutal honesty which is hard to swallow, mostly because it talks openly about Northern Ireland and what it had to go through in the 1970s.On the other hand it has an early urban fantasy feel, so if you liked War f...

Slightly confused as to what to think of this now I'm at the end. Quite a wobbly way from start to finish. While I'm sure I liked it (though sometimes it was more like three stars rather than four), I can't seem to form a cohesive sentence about it.It's very different to what I expected, and I don't...
