About the Books
The Harker Academy series marks Kate Golden's thrilling leap into urban fantasy and dark academia, blending demon-hunting action with a slow-burn romance critics have called steamy and unputdownable. In Half City, a lone demon hunter balancing two worlds is unexpectedly recruited into the elite, secretive Harker Academy, discovering a hidden legacy of hunters, monsters, and campus politics far deadlier than any pop quiz. The story pairs classic dark academia atmosphere with fast-paced urban fantasy plotting, introducing complex, morally gray characters and a found-family dynamic readers have praised as the series' emotional heart. Cursed City pushes the momentum higher, as secrets unravel, rivalries deepen, and the forbidden attraction at the center of the series intensifies. Reviewers have highlighted the wit-filled banter, edge-of-your-seat action, and a slow-burn romance that keeps pages turning late into the night. Together, these two books lay the groundwork for an addictive trilogy, leaving readers eager for the next chapter in the Harker Academy world. With immersive world-building, a richly drawn demon-hunter mythology, and relationships as complicated as they are compelling, this collection suits readers who love their fantasy dark, their academia dramatic, and their romance smoldering. Golden grounds the high-stakes supernatural danger in characters readers genuinely root for, balancing humor and heart throughout each installment so the emotional stakes always feel earned alongside the action. Fans of romantasy and dark academia fiction will find plenty to love across both books.
