About this ebook

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.
