Keri Arthur's new series City of Light (Outcast #1)

City of Light (Outcast #1)City of Light by Keri Arthur
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

(ARC from NetGalley in exchange for review)

This dystopian novel had me hooked from the start. It has a very intricate plot that you must pay attention to be able to follow. It weaves and entwines secrets and machinations like none I've seen. And the cliffhanger? OMG! I am very happy to see that the sequel has a name (Winter Halo) with a publishing date of November 2016! No year wait for me!

Tiger is a déchet. The last of her kind. A new breed of human/animal/other made by humans to fight the shifters and vampires in the last war. Surving in an underground bunker long abandoned after the war, she comes to the surface only for food. Saving a child and her shifter-uncle from the vampires one night while out for food changes her life forever. She now needs to sift through the lies and half-truths to find 13 children and uncover the conspiracy before it's too late.


This is a dark story filled with many surprises. Arthur incorporates many different varieties of paranormal beings – shifters, vampires, ghosts, seerers, witches...it makes for a very entertaining read. It kept me up at night and made me, basically, useless to my family during the day.

I'm am very excited about Keri Arthur's new series! I hope it will not be a 'two and through' series of books. I can see myself wanting to see Tiger through a lot of fun adventures!
