Half-Lich is a three-book series by Katerina Martinez published in 2016, comprising Dark Siren, The Void Weaver, and Night and Chaos. The series centers on a protagonist who is half-lich — half-human and half-undead — and must navigate the complications of that dual nature in a world of competing supernatural factions. The half-lich premise gives the series a distinct identity within Martinez’s broader catalog, which more frequently deals with witches and fae.
All three books were published in the same year and form a complete narrative arc. The series is frequently recommended as an entry point for new readers, as the world-building is accessible and the protagonist’s unusual nature provides a built-in mechanism for introducing the supernatural rules of Martinez’s universe. Reading in order from Dark Siren is recommended.
