Book 4 of the Cresent City Series

Crescent City by Sarah J. Maas is an urban fantasy romance series set in the sprawling, neon-lit city of Lunathion, where humans coexist uneasily with powerful Vanir like fae, shifters, vampires, and angels under the oppressive rule of the Asteri. The first book, House of Earth and Blood, centers on Bryce Quinlan, a half-human, half-fae party girl whose carefree life shatters when a demon brutally murders her best friend Danika and the wolf pack, leaving Bryce wounded and grieving. Two years later, with similar killings resurfacing despite the supposed culprit behind bars, Bryce is thrust into a reluctant partnership with Hunt Athalar, a brooding fallen angel assassin enslaved to the city's rulers, as they unravel a conspiracy involving ancient relics, forbidden magic, and city-wide corruption amid sizzling tension and slow-burn attraction. Later installments expand the stakes with interstellar threats, shifting alliances, and Bryce's hidden heritage, blending high-octane action, political intrigue, and steamy romance without revealing key twists or resolutions.
