A Darkness at the End

The final book in the contemporary fantasy trilogy set in Dublin: and Dubh Linn, the fae world that exists in the cracks and corners of reality.



Angels, fae demons and humans are drawn into lethal conflict as the fate of the world hangs in the balance in the final installment in this urban fantasy. Holly, the fae matriarch, tries to sieze the power of heaven for herself, while Izzy has lost her memory and Jinx is dead ... or is he?

Confronted with ancient powers, sacrifice and treachery. War is looming within the ranks of the Sidhe. The angels and the demons begin to draw lines, daring each other to transgress and start another war ...

'fantasy lovers will adore the twists and turns … it's wonderful to see Irish mythology in the hands of someone who knows what they're talking about and resists presenting the reader with a twee view of the country' Inis Magazine about A Crack in Everything



Ruth Frances Long is a lifelong fan of fantasy and romance. She studied English Literature, History of Religions, and Celtic Civilisation in college and now works in a specialised library of rare and unusual books. But they don't talk to her that often.



the trilogy is an unrelenting tense and brilliant fantasy, with fraught family relationships and eccentric and memorable beings … an absolute tour de force



takes the reader on an emotional roller coaster as she brings her stunning Dublin-based fantasy series to an end



compelling



gripping and dramatic … I loved the third Dubh Linn book, I couldn't put it down … As always, Long makes excellent use of locations in Dublin – Marsh's Library, the Long Room at Trinity College Dublin, the National Gallery of Ireland and Glasnevin Cemetery all feature in this volume. She skilfully melds real Dublin and magical Dubh Linn, making excellent use of the history surrounding the locations. She writes about Dublin as a place of magic and story, making the (Irish) reader see their place in a new way … a brilliant read, both heart-pounding and heartbreaking



powerful, enthralling, unnerving and an incessant pace, A Darkness At The End will haunt you long after the book is done



the story is full of atmosphere, rich with legend and history, and full of excellently drawn characters
