Original.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>New York Times</i>-bestselling October Daye series - Hugo Award-winning author Seanan McGuire - Top of my urban-paranormal series list! --Felicia Day</b> <p/> October Toby Daye is finally doing all right--and that inevitably means it's time for things to take a turn for the worse. Someone has kidnapped the sons of the Duchess Dianda Lorden, regent of the Undersea Duchy of Saltmist. <p/>To prevent a war between land and sea, Toby must not only find the missing boys, but also prove that the Queen of the Mists was not behind their abduction. She'll need all her tricks and the help of her allies if she wants to make it through this in one piece. <p/> Toby's search will take her from the streets of San Francisco to the lands beneath the waves. But someone is determined to stop her--and whoever it is isn't playing by Oberon's Laws. As the battle grows more and more personal, one thing is chillingly clear. When Faerie goes to war, not everyone will walk away.<i> </i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Praise for the October Daye series: <p/>The <b>top of my urban-paranormal series list</b>! I am so invested in the worldbuilding and the characters.... The romance is real and awesome, but doesn't overshadow the adventure. --Felicia Day <p/>I can't believe McGuire can come up with <b>another adventure as riveting as this one</b>. But then I say that after every book in this series. --SFRevu <p/>McGuire has never lacked for courage in her writing.... The <b>phenomenally inventive October Daye series showcases her narrative daring</b> and ingenuity beautifully. --<i>RT Reviews</i> <p/>Prepare to be dazzled.... Like the best of urban fantasy, with each reveal and mystery solved, Toby's world grows ever more enticing. <b>As seductive as faerie itself</b>, this is one series I could never give up. --All Things Urban Fantasy <p/>These books are <b>like watching half a season of your favorite television series all at once</b>.... More than anything else, it's the fun of it all that's kept me returning to McGuire's books and to this series. --SF Signal <p/>The plot is strong, the characterization is terrific, the tragedies hurt...and <b>McGuire's usual beautiful writing and dark humor</b> are present and accounted for. This has become one of my favorite urban fantasy series. --Fantasy Literature <p/>An urban fantasy detective series featuring a resourceful female detective.... [October Daye] should appeal to <b>fans of Jim Butcher's Dresden Files as well as the novels of Charlaine Harris, Patricia Briggs</b>, and similar authors. --<i>Library Journal</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Seanan McGuire </b>is a California-based author with a strong penchant for travel and can regularly be found just about anyplace capable of supporting human life (as well as a few places that probably aren't). Early exposure to a vast number of books left her with a lifelong affection for the written word, and led, perhaps inevitably, to her writing books of her own, starting somewhere around the age of eleven. The <i>October Daye </i>novels are her first urban fantasy series, and the <i>InCryptid</i> novels are her second series, both published by DAW and bother of which have put her in the<i> New York Times </i>bestseller list. Seanan was the winner of the 2010 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer; <i>Rosemary and Rue</i>, the first novel in the <i>October Daye </i>series, was named one of the Top 20 Paranormal Fantasy Novels of the Past Decade; and her novel <i>Feed</i>, written under the name Mira Grant, was named as one of <i>Publishers Weekly's </i>Best Books of 2010. She also won a Hugo for her podcast, and is the first person to be nominated for five Hugo Awards in a single year. You can visit her at www.seananmcguire.com.
