Interesting and well written. Seelie fights unseelie with the involvement of some human musicians. The complicated politics make it more interesting than most of this genre.
Another awesome cover. Look at that haircut, man. LOOK AT IT.Didn't hold up that well, I thought. The clothes and music are incredibly 80s, and now the "I'm a normal person recruited into the dark underworld of FAERIE!" is so overdone. I know this was one of the first, kind of ground breaking in tha...
I bought this book back in 2005 at the Mall of America, before I knew how to pack enough reading materials into my bags so I didn’t run out halfway through a road trip. I don’t think I knew what urban fantasy was back then, but I liked the cover and I had enough of my allowance left so hey! Why not,...

This book was written in 1987 and largely influenced the shaping of UF as it is today.Secondly, this is about a musician getting stuck between two Courts of Fey. I can't ...
(review originally posted on my livejournal account: http://intoyourlungs.livejournal.com)So, as mentioned above, I read this book for the Women of Fantasy book club that I've been participating in (and loving) this year. This book was already on my "want-to-read" list because of calico_reaction (I ...
I was recommended this novel by a blogging friend and she told me that this laid the foundation for the urban fantasy genre that is so popular today. And let me tell you guys, this book?
