De: Jeremy Thomas Fuller

Narrado por: Lesley Isles

Her crew betrayed her. Her magic broke her. Her city isn’t ready for her return.

In the flying city of Newfris, where the elite soar above the clouds and the forgotten toil beneath the streets, Phoenix is more than just a killer—she’s a survivor. As a killgirl for Her Majesty’s Navy, she’s mastered the deadly art of forcefinding, creating powerful energy bubbles that can trap—or obliterate—anyone in her way. But when a mission goes horribly wrong, Phoenix finds herself cast out, hunted by enemies, and betrayed by those she trusted most.

Now, with only a ragtag crew of misfits by her side, Phoenix must navigate a treacherous underworld of magic, machines, and buried secrets. As she faces off against the ruthless Planners, deadly assassins, and the demons of her past, Phoenix will discover the true cost of power—and what it really means to be free.

Get ready for a pulse-pounding ride through the skies and shadows of Newfris, where loyalty is a lie, love is a weapon, and survival is the only rule that matters.

If you love the brutal, magic-fueled underworlds of Red Rising and the electric, high-speed anarchy of Akudama Drive, this sci-fantasy thriller will have you racing through the story.

Tech issues

I enjoyed the story however I had technological issues from chapter 80 to the end of the book. I have been an Audible for years now and never experienced anything like it. I downloaded to book to my phone as usual and it played fine thru chapters 1-75; when i noticed sections skipping when playing, unclear audio, unable to rewind or fast forward. Device showed chapters beyond 80 that I was unable to access, and it seemed to skip to what I think was the end of the book. First time I have been disappointed with Audible.
