About The Book
Deep in the heart of London, a young photographer named Tom Argent walks the streets and captures whatever catches his eye: an old man drinking coffee; a striking woman sipping champagne in St. Pancras station; a cloud of moths taking flight across the sky. He’s orphaned, lonely, and lost in his work. He certainly has no intention of falling in love.
And yet, love finds him in the shape of beautiful Vanessa, who lives a dangerous double life in the heart of the city. Tom’s pursuit of Vanessa leads him to discover an alternate world, hiding in plain sight among the streets and rooftops of London. A world unseen by common folk and inhabited by strange and colorful beings, in which two warring factions—one nocturnal, one in the light—wage war for the sake of a long-lost love, which can only end with one side’s total annihilation.
The Moonlight Market will enchant readers with new worlds and epic romance and in this captivating modern fairytale about what could be hiding in the corner of your eye.

Raves and Reviews
"Joanne Harris's moody, evocative fairy tale follows a London photographer who becomes entwined with rival kingdoms of supernatural beings separated by tragedy. The Moonlight Market takes readers on a haunting journey of loss, fragmented memories, and characters who will go to any (supernatural) lengths for love."
– Shelf Awareness
"This sometimes unsettling yet consistently delightful fairy tale feels like a marriage of the clever schemes of Trip Galey’s A Market of Dreams and Destiny and the metaphors of Kelly Barnhill’s The Crane Husband."

"A sparkling modern fairytale. Like reading champagne."
– Natasha Pulley, author of The Mars House
"Bestseller Harris delivers a sweetly upbeat urban fantasy in which––unbeknownst to humans or the supernatural Sightless Folk with whom they coexist––the Butterfly and Moth Kingdoms wage an ancient war. The combination of epic story and fairy tale prose captivates, and Harris builds an enchanting world. Urban fantasy readers seeking a lighthearted treat with find plenty to enjoy."
– Publishers Weekly
