Free (Kindle) Of Blood and Honey by Stina Leitch [Historical Urban Fantasy]
Of Blood and Honey by Stina Leicht, is presumably the first in the "Fey and the Fallen" series involving faerie-world conflict set during a time of real-life human conflict in Ireland. This is free courtesy of Night Shade Books, who offered it as a direct freebie last year, but if you happened to miss it, well, here's your chance to pick it up.
Free @ Amazon (available to Canadians). Description Fallen angels and the fey clash against the backdrop of Irish/English conflicts of the 1970s in this stunning debut novel by Stina Leicht. Liam never knew who his father was. The town of Derry had always assumed that he was the bastard of a protestant--His mother never spoke of him, and Liam assumed he was dead. But when the war between the fallen, and the fey began to heat up, Liam and his family are pulled into a conflict that they didn't know existed. A centuries old conflict between supernatural forces seems to mirror the political divisions in 1970s era Ireland, and Liam is thrown headlong into both conflicts. Only the direct intervention of Liam's real father, and a secret catholic order dedicated to fighting "The Fallen" can save Liam... from the mundane and supernatural forces around him, and from the darkness that lurks within him. |

Awesome! I've had this on my wish list since I first heard of it, but never got around to buying it. I guess sometimes waiting pays off!

I'll second "good book". An interesting story combining troubles in Northern Ireland in the 1970's with the Fey. If I hadn't already gotten a copy from Baen, I'd be jumping on this.

This one made my Favorite Books of 2011 list. Really enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to the sequel, And Blue Skies From Pain, which will be out in March.
