KATIE's life should be falling into place. She can fence like a demon on wheels, her boyfriend is the High King of Faerie, and she saved all Avalon not six months ago. So why is everything coming apart? Maybe it's that her relationship is illegal. Maybe it's that she just wanted to see a punk show with her best friend, and now they're under attack by aliens with laser weapons. What's a girl to do? BERI cultivates a frozen facade, but when the aliens take KATIE from his side, he melts down. He's the High King of Faerie, but one punk show might cost him everything, and not just politically. He adores KATIE, but when faced with an uncaring system, he can only do one thing: lash out. Once, EAGLE was a wandering god and a fool for love. Now there's not much wandering and it's hard to get a man's attention when he's busy guarding the jealous volcano at the heart of many worlds. He just wishes FOX would touch him more often. Unfortunately for him, the implacable MATIL have their eyes on FOX. Heir to an ancient covenant and marked by magical scars from brutal abuse, he's the perfect subject for their plans, but FOX has no intention of going quietly. Across worlds and broken hearts, the fight against the MATIL will bring them all crashing together. These aliens will remember their names.
