A brilliant con artist and a secretive librarian collide in New York Times bestselling author Kalyn Josephson’s enchanting adult fantasy debut packed with twists, tricks, slowburn romantic tension, and magical creatures—perfect for fans of S.A. MacLean, Mai Corland, and K.A. Linde.

Kasira used to be a masterful con artist: choosing her target, building trust, judging the precise moment to make her move. Now, she’s working off a lengthy prison sentence by hunting dangerous magical creatures on behalf of the fanatical kingdom of Kalthos. But Kasira’s past catches up to her when the ambassador from Kalthos arrives at her camp with a deal: her freedom in exchange for infiltrating and destabilizing the magical institution meant to protect all six kingdoms—the Library of Amorlin. When Kasira assumes the role of the new Assistant Librarian, she enters an enchanting world brimming with books and beasts, tempting her with a life she can never have. But Kasira’s real future depends on her long con to bring down the Librarian. Unfortunately, Allaster is as prickly as he is handsome, and his monstrous secrets are about to catch up with them both . . .

Really enjoyed the world building and ending in this can’t wait for book 2! It felt different that other books I’ve read recently. Most of the book is slower paced which is normal in a book 1.

Great first book in a series

I really enjoyed this one! I went into this one blind and I was not disappointed! I'm also so glad I decided to do this one on audio because the narrators did a fantastic job bringing the characters and the story to life!

I absolutely loved the spy, Kasira, and especially loved the broody Librarian, Alaster. I enjoyed watching their relationship grow throughout the book as they learn if they can trust each other. This story had me so invested that I was constantly turning the pages to find out what was going to happen next. Would Kasira dethrone Alaster? Would Alaster uncover Kasira's truth? What was Alaster hiding? I'm telling you, I was staying up late reading this one.

I do want to mention, if you are looking for romance, this book has it but it is very very minimal. And I mean verrryyyy minimal. With that being said, the main plot and storyline was SO good that the romance aspect wasn't even needed or missed in my opinion. (But still nice that it was there and loved what little bit there was!)

Other things I also loved were the side characters, the beasts, how the author's writing made it so easy to visualize the world, and how the storyline kept me so invested that I struggled to put the book down because I wanted to keep reading!

Overall, I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be reading the next one! I just have a feeling that the second book will be even better and I can't wait!!

Great Narration and Great Story!
