Queen of Iron and Blood
The storm was only the beginning…
Mackenzie Scott is trapped in another realm, but that’s the least of her problems. Magic runs through her veins, and even now she can feel herself changing. She’s managed to help her brother, but in exchange, she’s turning into one of them. Worse, Mackenzie’s not just a monster. She’s their queen.
Hunter had one job: open the gateway between worlds to keep his realm alive. He hadn’t counted on betrayal. He hadn’t counted on being saved by a human girl. And he’d never guessed he couldn’t trust his own king. Now he’s trapped in a world to which he can never truly belong.
Separated by realms, Mackenzie and Hunter must save the other’s world. But the divide isn’t the only thing working against them. Beasts and men fight a dangerous battle that pits Hunter and Mackenzie against those they’re trying to protect.
And the clock is ticking.

Tyler had told her they’d upgraded to some sort of high-tech tracer ammunition that was supposed to be unbeatable. He’d said they’d used it to shoot one down near Adamstown and that the military was studying the thing. They couldn’t use missiles, Tyler had said, because when they’d tried, the monsters had turned them and every single shot had exploded some military base or soft target nearby. There had apparently been massive incidents in several other countries—thousands killed at their armed forces’ own hands.
Hannah hadn’t entirely believed him, because the trickle of information the officers got was usually nowhere near the same story. But she had to admit, at least some of the information Tyler had brought them had turned out true.
“I remember thinking, ‘This is it,’” she told her captain. “‘This is where they drop the bomb. Where we all die.’” She swallowed hard, waiting for the next bird to hit the glass like a child counting the seconds between lightning and thunder. It didn’t come.
“They didn’t drop a bomb,” he said.
“No. Everything got sucked in. All of it, monsters and people and everything, gone in the blink of an eye. We stood there for a minute, stunned. Our ears ringing, just in shock. The monsters were gone. The sky was closed. It was over.”
It wasn’t over. They knew that now.
King of Ash and BoneWhen flying monsters break through the veil into her world, Mackenzie Scott has nothing left to lose. Her brother has been taken, her future has vanished, and all that remains is a desperate need for revenge. After discovering the breach the creatures used as a gateway, Mackenzie devises a plan to stop them, whatever the cost.
When she finds an injured stranger in the street, he just might be the key she needs to succeed. What Mackenzie doesn't know is that this stranger isn't the helpless boy he appears to be. He's one of the monsters. And he's got plans of his own.
Thrown into a dying city in another realm, Mackenzie is powerless to get back. With the gateway closing, time is not on her side. But the stranger is, and if they can escape execution, this girl and her monster might be able to save both their worlds.
