About this listen

Ren is a thief and a con man. You want something stolen, big or small, he'll get it. No matter how well it's protected. All while being the only person in the city without any magical knack.

There's just one rule: He doesn't kill people.

Murder is rare in the walled city of Lenmar, thanks to the magic-eating Inquisitors that can sniff out and track any individual by their particular knack. So, when a serial killer starts killing the nobility, leaving no trace for the Inquisitors to follow, Ren becomes the prime and only suspect.

All Ren wants to do is stop a serial killer, clear his name, and protect the people he cares about.

To do that, he’ll have to pull one more high-stakes heist—and steal the proof he needs from the very people who want to catch him.

Heists with Magic

I have enjoyed this book, specially the world building and the characters' interactions.
It mixes a dystopian heavily rigid society where magic plays a important role.
Good narration.

Heist and Adventure

This is a heist story that appeals to all kinds of fantasy readers! It has humor, adventure, and a mystery that will keep you glued to the pages (or in my case, headphones) until the very end. It reads very quickly and keeps the intrigue without being repetitive. I was hooked into what was happening and then blown away with the action. It was exciting and kept me wondering what would happen next.

The strength of this novel were the characters. I loved the interaction between Ren and Haim, constantly enjoying the banter that would occur between the two characters. This strength also allows for a quick attachment to the characters, making you care what happens to them as they attempt their heists and adventures. It is an intriguing world, but I look to have it expanded in future installments. The reader is given just enough, but there is the potential to know so much more, allowing them to be fully immersed. The magic was very cool as well and played a huge part in the story that is told.

This is a series and author that I will be keeping on my radar. Heist stories are some of my favorites, and this is one that I will put near the top. Full of not just the humor, but action and peril, as well as sadness at the appropriate times. This book should be talked about, as well as read and recommended. Sit down and let Ren steal your imagination as he sets out on an adventure he didn’t see coming.

Thank you for taking the time to read my review. As always, happy reading and Stay Great!!

Good story, worth the listen

well written with some flaws, I won't go into them to avoid spoilers but they are minor. I would like the magic system to be more explained in the future though.
