Five Broken Blades by Mai Corland
They can agree on murder. They can agree on treachery. But for these five killers - each versed in deception, lies, and betrayal - it's not enough to forge an alliance.
This dazzling fantasy has it all: a richly developed world, a captivating ensemble cast, and a twisty, action-packed quest * Karen MMcManus, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying *
Five Broken Blades is thrilling, addictive, and simply incredible. Mai Corland's writing is as elegant and incendiary as wildfire, sweeping through a lush, folkloric world and its madcap adventures at the same time that she effortlessly shuffles through the perspectives of a vibrant cast of beautifully realized characters that one can't help but root for. What a stunning debut! * Thea Guanzon, USA Today and New York Times bestselling author of The Hurricane Wars *
With vivid worldbuilding and unforgettable characters, Five Broken Blades is a gripping, unputdownable read that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page! * Lynette Noni, #1 bestselling author of The Prison Healer trilogy *
Mai Corland makes each character just leap off the page with their unique voice, thoughts, secrets, and desires. The heist had me guessing until the very last page, and I absolutely loved this book. I couldn't put it down! * Nisha J. Tulli, bestselling author of Trial of the Sun Queen *
I started this one and could not put it down. It's everything you want in a unlikely group of untrustworthy bad people getting together to pull of an impossible heist (or in this case, an assassination) story * Rebecca Roanhorse, New York Times bestselling author of Black Sun *
A heist. A remarkable cast of characters. And a plot that had me hooked from the first page, to the last. Watch out world, a new viral fantasy sensation is upon us. Don't miss out on Five Broken Blades - trust me, it's a stellar read! * Ben Alderson, author of Lord of Eternal Night *
Skillfully combining espionage, fantasy, romance, and a quest for justice, this marks Corland as an exciting new voice * Publishers Weekly *
