Welcome to Harker Academy for Deviant Defense. Keep your daggers sharp, and your wits even sharper.
Viv Abbot is an average twenty-one-year-old girl. She lives in an expensive city where the rent is too high, works long hours at a thankless job, and is dating a guy she doesn''t even like in the hopes of winning her prickly mother''s approval.
She just also happens to be a demon hunter.
''Welcome to Half City, in which Kate Golden does nothing by halves: full-throttle action, a twisty mystery, and a deliciously tense romance make this an absolute romp. Our lead, Viv, is equal parts badass and messy, and her love interest may give you a thing for claws. Absolutely fabulous action writing by Golden, beautifully offset by a story about acceptance, belonging, and what it means to be human'' - Brigitte Knightley, author of The Irresistible Urge to Fall For Your Enemy
''Kate Golden deftly fuses a lush and bewitching dark academia setting, complex characters, and a sizzling slow burn romance in Half City, the unputdownable first installment of a trilogy that will leave readers breathless'' - Julie Soto, author of Rose in Chains
''Packed with edge-of-your-seat action, steamy scenes that will set your curtains on fire, and some of the wittiest banter I''ve ever read, Half City is the urban fantasy / dark academia book this Buffy fangirl has been waiting for all her life. I don''t know what sort of magic Kate Golden weaves into her books but I hope she never stops. The Harker Academy series is my newest obsession'' - Jenna Levine, author of Road Trip With a Vampire
