I enjoyed this book and it pulled me out of a reading slump due to it's fast pace and easy reading style. I like a heist story and this book in many ways reminded me of The Final Empire. I would say that it is a good book if you don't usually read fantasy and want to dip your toes into the genre.

This was so nearly a 5* read for me but there were a couple of things that I didn't like. I think most of these were victims of the book being a YA. The two main things I disliked were:
- the romance - I'd be perfectly happy with no romance but well written romance I don't mind. The romance bits in this were just annoying. Maybe book 2 will change my mind on that point
- whilst there were many points where events went south for the characters, there never really felt like there was any great peril. Again, maybe that is because it is written as YA? But I personally would have liked a bit more tension.

I fell in love with this book by chapter 3. As soon as I got to the last chapter I went out and bought the duology because I couldn't wait for the next one. The author's writing is captivating, the cast of characters are wonderful and I find everyone deep and their arcs throughout the story wonderful (except Wylan - I hope he gets more in book 2). The pace in the story is always moving with the slow moments centered around character depth or plot point build-up. Truly a beautiful book!

If you struggle with drug use/abuse this may not be the book for you.

The plot centers around a heist that's caused by the creation of a drug that boosts the powers of magic users, but it's HIGHLY addictive. Almost one use and they're gone. And we see the effects multiple times in graphic details on occassion. . Proceed with caution if that is a trigger for you.
