One day Iris receives a reply, which, along with other events, pushes her to make dramatic life decisions. I won't go through every character one by one, but each of them truly are special, including the secondary characters. Set in a world ruled by a cruel and sinister Queen, Rags' life was a difficult one, living on the streets, stealing and building his name as a thief. Shining Talon of Vengeance Drawn in Westward Strike (who I will now refer to as Tal) is also a great character, and the romance between Tal and Rags is one that I have been thinking about and freaking out about from the moment Tal appeared on page all the way to now, weeks after I've finished the book. Then there is the queen who never ages, her mages who are all powerful, the defeated fae, and this thief who only wanted a good pay day.

Rags the thief has never met a pocket he couldn't pick, but when he's captured by a sorcerer with world-ending plans, he realizes even. the fantasy worldbuilding was interesting and the romance was cute, i just had a slight issue with the characters, as i only found myself growing attached to a couple of them.and okay I have to stop at the moment because clearly i'm just rambling but GUYS THIS WAS SUCH A FUN, UNIQUE, MAGICAL AS ALL HELL, WHIRLWIND OF A RIDE !

He prefers to think of his work as a “portfolio career” and enjoys “being able to dance between marketing/pr and event production work, especially in the summer.

With the heist and intrigue of Six of Crows and the dark fairy tale feel of The Cruel Prince, this young adult fantasy debut will have readers rooting for a pair of reluctant heroes as they take on a world-ending fae prophecy, a malicious royal plot, and, most dangerously of all, their feelings for each other. They drift apart and find new friends, but their friendship keeps asserting itself at parties, shared holiday gatherings and random encounters.But slowly the story breathes and expands, including more characters, places and plots, truths that have to be uncovered and faced, secrets and magic. When abbreviated as simply "jack of all trades", it is an ambiguous statement – the user's intention is then dependent on context. Of the heroes, four are White, one is brown-skinned, and one is a fantasy race with golden skin and black hair.
