And Blue Skies from Pain by Stina Leicht

And Blue Skies from Pain (A Book of the Fey and Fallen) - Stina Leicht, 300 pages

The second book in the series does not disappoint.  Leicht creates extremely realistic characters and drama that give a gritty truth to the dangers of Ireland during the Troubles in the 1970s.  The fantasy elements of the war between the Fey and the Fallen and the Church form an added layer of drama that doesn't detract from the whole.  Liam has served as a driver for the IRA, gone to prison for being in the wrong place at the wrong time and suffered numerous personal tragedies. He has vowed to not be drawn back into the sectarian violence but soon finds himself as a pawn in the larger paranormal war.  If you are fan of the truly truly reluctant hero, you will love this series.
