When you're an outlaw hoping for a pardon, and the emperor personally sends a note requesting that your team kidnap him, you make plans to comply, even if it'll involve infiltrating a train full of soldiers, bodyguards, and spies loyal to a nefarious business coalition that has numerous reasons to hate you.

Even if it means leaving the city right after you've uncovered a secret weapons shipment that might be meant to start a war.

Even if it's a trap....

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would absolutely recommend this audiobook, Lyndsay's ability to create a world full of action and humour with strong lead female characters and side characters that have depth enough you feel for them with every plot twist and turn definitely make this a must "read" book

Who was your favorite character and why?

Amaranthe is my favourite without a doubt her feisty, never say die attitude and sense of humour make me a true believer!

What does Vivienne Leheny bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

when I heard starla wasn't available to narrate this book my heart sank! she was absolutely outstanding in the first 3 books and I've abandoned other series that have swapped narrators mid series because I couldn't acclimatise to the new narrator.
so imagine my delight when I started to listen to Vivienne's performance, whilst there is a difference between the two narrators I didn't have that disconnect when hearing favourite characters talk I think Vivienne must have listened to starla's narration to match them up, not only that but the performance is outstanding so much so that within half an hour I was totally focused on the story rather than who was telling it and what if any differences there were. 10/10

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

there are many laugh out loud moments in the book as with most of Lyndsay's books and whilst there weren't tear inducing moments there are quite a few tender moments that tug at the heart strings!

Any additional comments?

this series isn't paid for by amazon or audible, it's paid for by the author out of her own pocket because the likes of me have pestered her for it, so why not give it a shot, I loved every minute of it and I'm sure I'm not alone

non stop edge of the seat action!

Book 4 gives us some of Akstyr's, background; His childhood; his betrayal of Sicarius and, indirectly, the group; his meeting with his mother and his journey to try and redeem himself, if that is possible.

Sicarius is still his stoic self. Amaranthe's juvenile ways in some situations is a little irritating. I'm not sure telling her crew not to hurt anyone when they are trying to kill them is particularly helpful.

Note to the narrator. What happened to Maldynado? His voice has changed and now sounds similar to Books, which makes things a little confusing. It is not a good idea to change a character's voice in the middle of a series, hence the 4 stars.
