Description

Fortune favors the bold. Magic favors the liars.

Ren is a liar and a thief, a pattern-reader and a daughter of no clan. Raised in the slums of Nadežra, she fled that world to save her sister. Now, she has returned with one goal: to trick her way into a noble house, securing her fortune and her sister’s future.

But in the city of dreams, her masquerade is just one of many. Enigmatic crime lord Derossi Vargo, stony captain of the guard Grey Serrado, dashing heir Leato Traementis, and the legendary vigilante known as the Rook all have secrets that could unravel her own.

And as corrupt nightmare magic begins to weave its way through the city of dreams, the poisonous feuds of its aristocrats and the shadowy dangers of its impoverished underbelly become tangled - with Ren at their heart.

"Lush, engrossing, and full of mystery and dark magic" (BookPage), The Mask of Mirrors is the unmissable start to the Rook & Rose trilogy, a dazzling fantasy adventure by Marie Brennan and Alyc Helms, writing together as M. A. Carrick.

Amazing story and characters

This is a long book with many characters and I was hooked the entire time. The world-building is amazing and I can’t wait to read the rest of the series!

Fun, Immersing, Beautifully written

Normally I don't read fantasy but this book has changed my opinion. The narrator was excellent, I always knew who was speaking. The book itself was full of rich description and fun twists. So very enjoyable! I am looking forward to the next book!

I don't think the main character is gay???

I bought this book because it was on a list of top sapphic books -- but there was only one sapphic scene of a side character touching someone's hand in the first half of the book...
