All's Fair (Fair Folk Chronicles book 4)
“She was glad that Bres's troops had less organized sorcery than the wider Fomoire forces. Those attacks that hit the runed-and-enchanted area dissipated without harm. Once they had, Megan boldly rode her wolf—Seven—forward, flanked by her father's riders, hers now, and raised her spear in a defiant taunt, singing louder.
The Fomoire, far more numerous than the fae, charged. As usual, they drove their weakest—though no more human slaves—at the front, sweeping for traps. They found plenty of ...them on the prepared grounds, hitting the pits and spear-traps. There were no runed traps this time—Megan had needed all possible runecasters and enchanters to enact the riskiest portion of her plan. Still, what there were helped whittle down the numbers, and largely left Bres and his vanguard leading the mad rush. Megan lowered her spear, signaling for the fae to fire, and arrows, spells, and other missiles rained down on the Fomoire's ranks, to limited effect.
Not far at all from the front ranks of the last defense to the Fremont path, Bres crashed through the magical barriers as if they were little more than a nuisance.MoreLess
