"Sleep No More" by Seanan McGuire
https://www.amazon.com/Sleep-No-More-Seanan-McGuire/dp/0756416841/
Book number seventeen of an eighteen book dark fantasy series. I read
the well printed and well bound MMPB published by DAW in 2023. I will
buy future October Daye stories when the MMPBs are released.
Many hundreds of years ago, the many of the fae left a far off land and
landed on what would become the west coast of the United States. There
they built their realms and fought their wars, both on the land and the
sea. The humans do not know of their realms and their travels but,
humans do not see everything. This is the fae's story.
In the beginning there was the Three of the fae. Oberon, the King of
the fae and his two Queen sister wives: Maeve and Titania. All of the
fae are descended from them, both together and singly. They are the
most powerful, way more powerful than their children, the Firstborn.
All three of the first are missing and have not been seen in hundreds of
years. But Luidaeg, the Firstborn sea witch, has been dragging an old
man around everywhere she goes.
Before Oberon disappeared, he put a gaes on Titania to stop killing
their descendants. Titania had grown jealous and heartless, and was
encouraging her children and their children to kill Maeve's children and
their children. Titania had succeeded in genociding entire races like
the Luidaeg's Roane.
October and her older sister August are being raised by their pureblood
father Simon Torquille and mother Amandine in a large stone tower in the
Faerie. October's real father is a human so she is a changeling, looked
down upon and often killed without reason by the purebloods. But
October is protected by other purebloods by August and Simon. October
is looking forward to August leaving so she can go with her, still
protected.
But everything is a lie.
Please note that although the author and I share the same middle and
last names, I do not know if we are related. We are McGuire's, there
are many of us. I paid for my book and all of the books that I own
written by her.
