Breaking Point

2023

Music can soothe a savage beast, but only if you play the right tune. Killian Hart, bard and Prince of the Winter realm, arrives in the Magic City to become the new director of the Fairy Bureau of Investigation. When he arrives, he finds that his job description includes more than overseeing the travel between the realms. It also includes calming a Kobold strike in the local mines, attending dryad luncheons, and appeasing the retired forge god on the mountain. In the meantime, the nine realms are on the brink of war. Killian hopes to aid his allies from the human realm, but he barely gets time for a break. When he can, he plays piano and sings at a local bar. Magic City Blues caters to a plethora of fair folk and shifters, and Killian becomes their newest star. With disgruntled fairies filling his building and local disputes, it's a guess as to what will tip the scales. What will reach their breaking point first? The war in the realms or Killian Hart, director of the FBI? Breaking Point is the first book in the Magic City Blues series. This series is part of Kimbra Swain's Trailerverse but can be read as a stand-alone series. Please also read Walking Wind, the prequel to the series.
