Netherweird Chronicles

Neverwhere meets Rivers of London in this fast-paced urban fantasy about friendship, family secrets, and the perils of dating the undead. Lili O'Reilly and her beloved cat, Grimm, live happily together on a quiet Liverpool back street above the coffee shop Lili runs with her best friend, Izzy. But everything changes the day Lili wakes up with a sore head and no pulse. When she accidentally murders someone-not a very nice someone, but a someone all the same-Lili has to consider that maybe she's no longer entirely human. And as the inhabitants of the city's underworld start taking an interest, Lili is forced to fight for her (after)life. Discover a magical world hidden in plain sight-a world where immortals jostle for power, and history tangles with mythology. A world in which the spirit of a city is the highest power of all.

"I'm being stalked by a vengeful half-witch, my love life's deader than I am, and now there's a runaway vampire in my spare room. Eternity isn't all it's cracked up to be." Lilith O'Reilly just wants to be left alone to run her coffee shop on a quiet Liverpool back street. But you don't choose the undead life-the undead life chooses you. There's something strange going on in the local cemetery, and it's not just the sharply dressed ghost who likes to practise his stage moves amongst the gravestones. The local pharmacist is suspiciously interested in Lili's vital signs and her cat is developing unnervingly human abilities. And now there's a voice in her head-a voice that definitely isn't her own.

"My cat's learned how to use the remote control, vampires keep ambushing me and I just kicked one of the most famous kings in history in his soft and squidgy bits. So much for resting in peace." Lilith O'Reilly might be dead, but that hasn't stopped life throwing problems at her. An entire city is living rent-free in her head, and her favourite mermaid is hoarding things she probably shouldn't in the dark depths of the Mersey. And then there's Liam. He might be the first man in a long time to stir Lil's undead veins, but is Mr Tall, Dark and Gruesome really all he seems? Lilith's got some serious decisions to make if she's going to survive the afterlife without losing what's left of her undead mind. Unseen forces want her gone for good-and it's a race to see who gets to her first. Cover by GetCovers

"The city keeps dropping people into the past, big cats are prowling Toxteth, and riding the Albert Dock carousel is now considered a dangerous sport. If things don't calm down soon, I'm going to start banging undead heads together." Lilith O'Reilly would find eternity far more peaceful if people would just, well, leave her in peace. Instead, she's been declared (reluctant) queen of all she surveys, the spirit of the city is going through an existential crisis, and Time itself has gone rogue and decided the laws of physics are for losers. Oh, and her cat's getting weirder by the day (which is saying something). Can Lilith figure out how to put things right without making other things go wrong? Do immortal kings ever make good boyfriend material? Is it possible to survive a bombing raid when you haven't even been born yet? And does anyone really understand quantum? The fourth book in the bestselling Netherweird Chronicles series, CITY OF GHOSTS is a fast and funny urban fantasy about what really gives a city its soul.
