The Netherweird Chronicles: Vol. 2: Books 4-6
(2025)(A book in the Netherweird Chronicles series)
An omnibus of novels by Violet Fenn
CITY OF GHOSTS
‘The city keeps dropping people into the past, big cats are prowling Toxteth, and riding the Albert Dock carousel is now considered a dangerous sport. If things don’t calm down soon, I’m going to start banging undead heads together.’
Lilith O’Reilly would find eternity far more peaceful if people would just, well, leave her in peace. Instead, she’s been declared (reluctant) queen of all she surveys, the spirit of the city is going through an existential crisis, and Time itself has gone rogue and decided the laws of physics are for losers. Oh, and her cat’s getting weirder by the day (which is saying something).
Can Lilith figure out how to put things right without making other things go wrong? Do immortal kings ever make good boyfriend material? Is it possible to survive a bombing raid when you haven’t even been born yet? And does anyone really understand quantum?
***
THE DREAM THIEF
‘There’s a corpse on my doorstep, a were-cat on my sofa and I’m being stalked by the assassins division of the local Women’s Institute. I’m going to need a lot more coffee.’
Lilith O’Reilly might be queen of the netherworld, but she’s determined to live a normal (after)life. All she has to do is figure out which of her admirers wants to kill her, whether it’s possible to date a mortal without injuring them, and what’s really going on in Chester.
Being human is difficult when you’re a danger to everyone—including yourself.
***
DARK WATERS
‘My cat’s learned to talk, my best friend’s acting even weirder than usual and there are corpse stains on the carpet. Again. And the next person to curtsey at me gets fed to the mermaids.’
All Lilith O’Reilly wants is a quiet life with her cat in her flat above the cafe she runs with her best friend Izzy.
But it’s not that easy when you’re the reluctant heir to an undead realm. Rivals want her out of the picture, her would-be suitors are being even more devious than usual, and the Mersey’s getting itchy. Oh, and the locals keep trying to worship her. Which is embarrassing.
Lil would very much like to pretend none of this is even happening. But the Holy Grail has gone missing in Liverpool, and it’s down to her to find it before all hell lets loose—literally.
Genre: Urban Fantasy
