ADVERTISEMENT {REVIEW}
I received this book as a review copy in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
To survive here, you either grow wings or claws.
Elitsa Serlov only cares about two things: earning enough money to start a new life and finding the rogue mage who murdered her mother. But years without leads have left her jaded, and she won’t let anyone—friend or foe—get in her way.
In Casekraia, anyone can use magic if they’re desperate enough to rent relics from the Tower, a corrupt guild of mages more concerned with their own wealth than the welfare of the people. Elitsa has spent the last three years as a reclamation agent for the Guild, hunting down her own people for precious coin and the hope of uncovering what happened to her mother.
Just one week before her contract with the Tower is set to expire, Elitsa is coerced into a dangerous conspiracy by a gang of rebellious thieves. With her loyalty to the Tower in question, Elitsa must decide between her quest for revenge and charting a new course for her life.

I had the pleasure of listening to the recently released audiobook, narrated by the talented Kate Reading.
As soon as I saw this stunning cover and read the synopsis, I knew I had to read this book. Kate’s voice and accent have been absolutely perfect for this story! The plot had me utterly spellbound, the world building is incredible and I got serious dark academia vibes from the whole story.
I also fell in love with the characters. All of them! They all play an important part and even the bad ones grew on me quickly. I really enjoyed the dark setting here and I highly recommend everyone reads this book, especially if you enjoyed stories like Nevernight or Throne of Glass. I mean, there’s magic, dark vibes, assassins and heists - what could you want more!!
I can highly recommend that you all read / listen to this stunning book. It's been one of my highlights this year and I can't wait to dive into the next one!
