"A fast-paced carnival of setbacks and skullduggery that reminds me of... me! Charming from the first twist to the last."—Scott Lynch

Set in a city of traders and thieves, monsters and murderers, this thrilling epic fantasy debut is a must-hear for fans of Nicholas Eames and Joe Abercrombie.

Lukan Gardova is a cardsharp, academy dropout, and—thanks to a duel that ended badly—the disgraced heir to an ancient noble house. His days consist of cheap wine, rigged card games, and wondering how he might win back the life he threw away.

When Lukan discovers that his estranged father has been murdered in strange circumstances, he finds fresh purpose. Deprived of his chance to make amends for his mistakes, he vows to unravel the mystery behind his father's death.

His search for answers leads him to Saphrona, fabled city of merchant princes, where anything can be bought if one has the coin. Lukan only seeks the truth, but instead he finds danger and secrets in every shadow.

For in Saphrona, everything has a price—and the price of truth is the deadliest of all.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The first volume of this sure-to-be-stellar series is a ribald, swashbuckling tale of treacheries, lies, and characters as gritty and cutthroat as anyone you’d meet in a tavern at midnight. Don’t miss these first steps into an epic world—one I can’t wait to tread again."—James Rollins, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Starless Crown and The Cradle of Ice

"There’s never a dull moment in this instantly absorbing debut that offers effortless escapism. Perfect for fans of the 'Mistborn' series by Brandon Sanderson."—Library Journal (starred review)

"Enough grit to make you flinch, enough heart to make you punch the air, this book will have dark fantasy lovers burning through the pages. Everything that's good about modern fantasy is here."—Ed McDonald, author of Daughter of Redwinter

Wonderful story! Loved the plot, setting, and Flea will be your new favorite sidekick!

Good story with a good cast. All I can say is you will love Flea!

Fantastic Story!!!

I loved this story, it managed to grab me from the start and kept my attention from start to finish!! When is the second book coming out!!

Adventure, rogues, heists and a fresh fantasy world.

If you want an adventure with intrigue, thieves, fun characters and an exciting plot, look no further. I was hooked early and didn’t want the ride to stop. I love the main 3 characters and really enjoyed their banter. The world building is imaginative and puts a fresh spin on things. Highly recommend!

this guy teleports a lot.

It seems almost every time the characters went somewhere the writer would not tell us how they got there and sometimes wouldn't tell they were someplace new until a paragraph later. this guy just teleports it seems

Great new serie

Wonderful characters and a fun new world. Narrator was spot on - particularly Flea’s voice. Can’t wait for the next books.

5 Star Read

This book was such a great fantasy tale. The qorldbuilding and magic were cool. I loved the overall connection between the worldbuilding and the story. Each character was interesting and made the story that much better. I am super excited for the next book!

world building and characters

the story was almost instantly captivating, thought not by its plot, but by the characters and the world in which they exist. the banter between them and the realness of each one was like listening to a well done play. I found myself increasingly interested in the world and wanted to know about every little detail I could. the plot was a little lacking. it seemed to take a while before it really got going and you knew where it was going. other than that, I absolutely loved it.

The world was intriguing

Worth a listen and honestly looking forward to where things are going in the next book!

Great Book

Favorite fantasy book I read this year. Great performance as well. Highly recommend. All of the characters a developed very well. You can almost feel their presence.

Niiiiiice

Good start to a promising new series. A couple really colorful and compelling characters. I will definitely read the next book and look forward to see where this all goes. I didn’t find myself very emotionally invested in the characters, with exception of Flea, and the main character gave me a couple serious eye roll moments, particularly when reflecting upon his “haunted past”. I also found myself seriously doubting the protagonist’s qualifications or competence more than once, which doesn’t always bother me in fantasy but I felt like his status as a badass was never properly demonstrated or justified. On top of this, he keeps doing super ballsy things. My opinion on him could definitely change as we discover more about his past. Excellent performance from the narrator…overall 3/5 stars
