Magic folk have long lived alongside people—from quiet, orderly English towns to wild Eastern steppes. Always—and even in ancient times, when only birds and sorcerers flew across the sky; and later, when airships rose into the clouds, steam and smoke awakened fast trains… Always and everywhere—until the War of Iron came and pushed the fairfolk, and all magic in the literal sense, underground.
This book tells of the events that preceded the war—how fairfolk returned to the world—and also about what role the foxes of Randall County have in everything that happened.
