In a glowing starred review, Kirkus praised Megan Whalen Turner's debut novel, Instead of Three Wishes, for its flawless execution and precise language. Now, in her second book, Turner more than lives up to that high praise.

The story follows the king's scholar, the magus, who believes he has discovered the location of a long-lost treasure. To retrieve it for his king, he enlists the help of a skilled thief named Gen, who he plucks from the king's prison. The magus is solely focused on Gen's abilities, while Gen's true motivations remain a mystery. As they embark on their perilous journey towards the treasure, they share stories of ancient gods and goddesses, adding a touch of lightness to their dangerous quest.

Megan Whalen Turner expertly intertwines Gen's tales and adventures in a novel brimming with suspense, excitement, and unexpected twists. Get ready for a thrilling ride filled with intrigue and surprises!
