À propos de cet audio

An atmospheric and intrigue-filled novel of dead gods, buried histories, and a mysterious, protean city- - from one of America's most acclaimed young fantasy writers. The city of Bulikov once wielded the powers of the gods to conquer the world, enslaving and brutalizing millions - until its divine protectors were killed. Now Bulikov has become just another colonial outpost of the world's new geopolitical power, but the surreal landscape of the city itself - first shaped, now shattered, by the thousands of miracles its guardians once worked upon it - stands as a constant, haunting reminder of its former supremacy. Into this broken city steps Shara Thivani. Officially, the unassuming young woman is just another junior diplomat sent by Bulikov's oppressors. Unofficially, she is one of her country's most accomplished spies, dispatched to catch a murderer. But as Shara pursues the killer, she starts to suspect that the beings who ruled this terrible place may not be as dead as they seem - and that Bulikov's cruel reign may not yet be over.

This is by far my favourite fantasy series. The world building is so well done in the first book and the character development throughout the series is amazing. My only gripe, and it's not much of one if I'm honest, is that there's some inconsistency in the narrator's character voices. For example, while Cuervo consistently portrays the character Mulaghesh as gruff (on point), at one point she inexplicably becomes someone's chain-smoking Ma from New Jersey. It's not really a complaint and I wouldn't NOT listen because of it, but it was hilarious and it did make me snort-laugh in public so that's on you Alma Cuervo.

Love this series!
