Tithe, Ironside, Valient - by Holly Black


These three books, all subtitled "a modern tale of Fairie" by Holly Black are dark and sinister. The world of Fairie in these is a dangerous place for humans and fey alike -don't expect to find Tinkerbell. The author says they can be read in any order and are not a series, but if you are particular about that kind of thing (me too), watch the publication dates and read them in that order. The urban New York setting makes these a little darker than the Melling series that is set in modern Ireland, tho the world of Fairie in both series has a lot in common.
