The Emperor's Mask

Magebreakers series, Book 2

By: Ben S. Dobson

Narrated by: Travis Baldree

A killer walks among the rich and powerful. Who can the Magebreakers trust? Someone is killing the non-magical members of Senate houses - those who might one day be named Protector of the Realm. And that same someone is leaving behind messages for the Magebreakers beside symbols of the shadowy organization known as the Knights of the Emperor.

Under suspicion from the constabulary, Tane and Kadka are drawn into the investigation to prove their innocence. What they find is that Audish politics are as dangerous as any Porthaven back alley. Suddenly, they're surrounded by the most powerful figures in the realm, everyone with a different agenda. Telling allies from enemies has never been harder, but Tane and Kadka will have to find someone to trust if they're going to bring the killer to justice. Their lives - and the future of the Protectorate - depend on it.

Second book in the magebreaker series.

I like first book was better but this one was good as well. Interested to see what the rest of the series will bring. Good world building and character development. the writing has a really good flow.

Wry humor, action, great narration

This series keeps me entertained with a great story, fun lines, friendships, enemies, and some light romance.

Meh

Very obvious twists which failed to surprise me. Not a bad story but not nearly as good as the first in the series.

Great Sequel!!

this was a great follow-up to the first book! Caught on to the killer early, but was nearly thrown off with each turn, wow

Fun but short

As with the first book in the series; good story and well performed but rather short at just over 6 hours.
