Chimes at Midnight (Toby Daye Book 7) by Seanan Mcguire
Things are starting to look up for October "Toby" Daye. She's training her squire, doing her job, and has finally allowed herself to grow closer to the local King of Cats. It seems like her life may finally be settling down...at least until dead changelings start appearing in the alleys of San Francisco, killed by an overdose of goblin fruit. Toby's efforts to take the problem to the Queen of the Mists are met with harsh reprisals, leaving her under sentence of exile from her home and everyone she loves. Now Toby must find a way to reverse the Queens decree, get the goblin fruit off the streets-and, oh, yes, save her own life, since more than a few of her problems have once again followed her home. And then there's the question of the Queen herself, who seems increasingly unlikely to have a valid claim to the throne...To find the answers, October and her friends will have to travel from the legendary Library of Stars into the hidden depths of the Kingdom of the Mists-and they'll have to do it fast, because time is running out. In faerie, some fates are worse than death. October Daye is about to find out what they are.
McGuire knows her stuffShe's great at writing amorality (or immorality, depending), how the world works, unique notions of what binds people, how it coexists (or doesn't) with humanity Fantasy Book Critic Seven books in, and Toby's world is still delightful, her cause still righteous, her escapades still fascinating. It really is a rare series that can claim such a thing. And October Daye is rare, indeed Heroes and Heartbreakers.
Seanan McGuire is a California-based author with a strong penchant for travel and can regularly be found just about any place capable of supporting human life (as well as a few places that probably aren't).
