About this listen

In the tropical island region known as the Frees, magic is growing stronger and gunpowder is becoming less reliable. Amid this world of swashbuckling, intrigue, and a dash of magic, two adventurers literally run into each other and are forced to fight together against pirates, sinister assassins, and powerful merchant families, in the process developing a most unlikely friendship.

Tesca is the Left Hand, a spy and assassin serving the Duke of Kohaya, ruler of one of the independent realms within the Frees. Kayrla is a sailor and sometimes-pirate with a few magical tricks up her sleeve. While fleeing the wrath of her former captain, Kayrla collides with Tesca, who’s on a mission of his own, and her captain, assuming them to be partners, sics his crew on both of them. Cutting their way free of the pirates, the pair come to realize that they make a very effective team. But will their combined talents be enough to stop an assassin seeking the Duke’s life, and who appears to be more than a match for either Tesca’s blades or Kayrla’s magic?

This is the second time I listen this through, this time buying it, and it is definitely worth it.

Pirates, magic, action mixed depth thoughts and talks about how things may fit togehter for the characters. The characters evolve with their knowledge, and many have a rich history shared with the reader along with the stories.

Personally, I find the long threads, the best feature of the book. They are many, and gives clues and indications on what may happen future on. This makes many of the events plausible, even obvious even if unexpexted.

The last star comes when the book serie is concluded 😊
