Keri Arthur is the New York Times bestselling author of the Souls of Fire and Dark Angels novels. Next month she introduces a brand new futuristic fantasy with City of Light, Book 1 in the Outcast Series, the tale of an invasion of wraiths, demons, and death spirits, and the super-soldiers who form Earth’s last defense.

When the bombs that stopped the species war tore holes in the veil between this world and the next, they allowed entry to the Others — demons, wraiths, and death spirits who turned the shadows into their hunting grounds. Now, a hundred years later, humans and shifters alike live in artificially lit cities designed to keep the darkness at bay….

As a déchet — a breed of humanoid super-soldiers almost eradicated by the war — Tiger has spent her life in hiding. But when she risks her life to save a little girl on the outskirts of Central City, she discovers that the child is one of many abducted in broad daylight by a wraith-like being — an impossibility with dangerous implications for everyone on earth.

Because if the light is no longer enough to protect them, nowhere is safe…

The second novel, Winter Halo, is scheduled to arrive November 2016.

City of Light will be published by Signet on January 5, 2016. It is 368 pages, priced at $7.99 for both the paperback and digital versions. Learn more at Keri Arthur’s website.
