Blood Kin
Blood Kin: A Novel of the Half-Light City | M.J. Scott
2 posts | 3 read
From the author of Iron Kin and Shadow Kin--a new novel of fantasy, romance, and adventure... Imagine a city divided. A city where human and Fae magic rests uneasily next to the vampire Blood and the shapeshifting Beasts. A city where a fragile peace is brokered by a treaty that set the laws for all four races…a treaty that is faltering day by day. I didn’t plan on becoming a thief and a spy. But options are limited for the half-breed daughter of a Fae lord. My father abandoned me but at least I inherited some of his magic, and my skills with charms and glamours mean that few are as good at uncovering secrets others wish to hide. Right now the city has many secrets. And those who seek them pay so well… I never expected to stumble across a Templar Knight in my part of the city. Guy DuCaine is sworn to duty and honor and loyalty—all the things I’m not. I may have aroused more than his suspicion...but he belongs to the Order and the human world. So when treachery and violence spill threaten both our worlds, learning to trust each other might be the only thing that saves us. But even if a spy and a holy knight can work together, finding the key to peace is never going to be easy…

I don't believe for a second Guy would turn away from the Templars. Also I hate that he calls her Darlin'.

If you have read the first book shadow kin, you will find this novel very repetitive. Same pacing, additional characters, slightly different plot line. However I will say I enjoyed this book more than the first. I found Holly to be a lot more confident and easier to relate to than Lily. If M. J. Scott keeps following this trend, I may have to read the third novel. The most interesting part is we finally get to delve deeper into the fairy realm.
