About The Year King

Explore a hidden world of modern fairies, ancient evils, and recently-unemployed telemarketers. EBOOK PERMANENTLY AT $2.99!

A 19-year-old Dubliner working a dead-end office job, Ivy Gallagher has finally moved out of her terrible apartment and into a posh neighborhood out of town. The rent’s cheap, the location’s beautiful, and her new flat-mate, Demi, is only moderately weird. So what if the house is packed with exotic plants or she can’t even touch Demi’s cookware?

But after two strangers visit the house, Demi vanishes, leaving Ivy with a lengthy folder of plant-care instructions and the suspicion that her flatmate is in serious trouble. Turns out, Demi’s not only a weird roommate—she’s also a runaway fairy king, in a society where the kingship is little more than a death sentence. Only one previous king has ever survived longer than a year. Ivy would love to ask him how he did it. Trouble is, he’s been missing for decades.

It’s up to Ivy to find both vanished kings, as she enters a hidden Dublin both magical and murderous, one that may have deep connections to Ivy’s own family. Can she save Demi without losing herself?

Learn More About The Author

A long-time resident of Seward, Alaska, Mareth is a writer and wilderness guide. She spends summers leading adventurous souls on epic quests to seek out glaciers, bears, and whales in the wilds of Alaska, and winters writing fantastical adventures that generally take place in warmer and more populated climes. Originally from West Virginia, Mareth attended Smith College in Massachusetts, studying music and theatre. She travels frequently, having lived and worked in New Zealand, Mexico, Scotland, and Northern Ireland – where her nearest neighbors included two thousand puffins and the ghost of a spectral black horse. Mareth was raised on fantasy, sci-fi, and adventure novels, her tastes ranging from Jules Verne and H. Rider Haggard to Barbara Hambly and CJ Cherryh. The Year King, a contemporary fantasy blending modern-day fairies, centuries-old terrors, and recently-unemployed telemarketers, is her first novel. It was published under the title Court of Twilight in 2017 through Parvus Press.
