Resumen del Editor
Shannon Chakraborty, the bestselling author of The City of Brass, spins a new trilogy of magic and mayhem on the high seas in this tale of pirates and sorcerers, forbidden artifacts and ancient mysteries, in one woman’s determined quest to seize a final chance at glory—and write her own legend.
Amina al-Sirafi should be content. After a storied and scandalous career as one of the Indian Ocean’s most notorious pirates, she’s survived backstabbing rogues, vengeful merchant princes, several husbands, and one actual demon to retire peacefully with her family to a life of piety, motherhood, and absolutely nothing that hints of the supernatural.
But when she’s tracked down by the obscenely wealthy mother of a former crewman, she’s offered a job no bandit could refuse: retrieve her comrade’s kidnapped daughter for a kingly sum. The chance to have one last adventure with her crew, do right by an old friend, and win a fortune that will secure her family’s future forever? It seems like such an obvious choice that it must be God’s will.
Yet the deeper Amina dives, the more it becomes alarmingly clear there’s more to this job, and the girl’s disappearance, than she was led to believe. For there’s always risk in wanting to become a legend, to seize one last chance at glory, to savor just a bit more power…and the price might be your very soul.

Historia
You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

It's 1634 and Samuel Pipps, the world's greatest detective, is being transported to Amsterdam to be executed for a crime he may, or may not, have committed. Traveling with him is his loyal bodyguard, Arent Hayes, who is determined to prove his friend innocent. But no sooner are they out to sea than devilry begins to blight the voyage. A twice-dead leper stalks the decks. Strange symbols appear on the sails. Livestock is slaughtered. And then three passengers are marked for death, including Samuel. Could a demon be responsible for their misfortunes?

Most of the time the Moontide Bridge lies deep below the sea, but every 12 years the tides sink and the bridge is revealed, its gates open for trade. The Magi are hell-bent on ruling this new world, and for the last two Moontides they have led armies across the bridge on "crusades of conquest". Now, the third Moontide is almost here, and this time the people of the East are ready for a fight... but it is three seemingly ordinary people that will decide the fate of the world.

Betrayal cuts deepest when someone you love wields the knife. For Kellik, a once-rising star of Port Gloom's guild of thieves, it also leaves him floating in the bay, bleeding out and without hope or allies. Saved by an urchin and healed by a disgraced saint, Kellick is consumed by a single desire: to find out why his guild master ordered him cut down moments after passing his initiation trial. Burning with injustice, Kellik recruits a number of gorgeous rogues to his side: fallen assassins, dark elf witches, and unnervingly polite necromancers.

Kenji's only dream in life is to become a great rebirther like his father. But with no talent for the mystic arts, the age-old tradition of cultivating essence by returning things to their newborn state, to grow a second and third time, is far beyond his grasp. Worse still, he is yet to be rebirthed himself and stands a dullard of a giant among his diminutive peers. Relegated to working the orchards as a common laborer, Kenji settles into a life of lowered expectations; with no chance for advancement and no chance of pursuing the woman he loves.

This genre-bending novel is set on Earth in the wake of a second civil war...not between two factions in one nation, but two factions in one solar system: Mars and Earth. In an attempt to repair increasing tensions, the colonies of Mars send a group of young people to live on Earth to help reconcile humanity. But the group finds itself with no real home, no friends, and fractured allegiances as they struggle to find a sense of community and identity, trapped between two worlds.

COMPLETELY CAPTIVATED
Can't think of a single thing that wasn't outstanding about this novel or the audio version of it. I loved it from the very beginning to the very end.

Historical fantasy set in the Islamic world and culture
This is a new series by the author, and though her previous series was well reviewed I wanted to start with this standalone (for now) book to get a better idea of how I would like her style.
The book was well written and was refreshing to see a book set in the historical Islamic world in a way that was historically accurate (other than the supernatural or fantastical elements), while still being entertaining and respectful of the culture.
The book was entertaining and as a parent (though as a father and not a mother) it was genuinely touching to see the humanizing element of concern for the main character’s child and the agony of being apart.
This initial book sets the stage for many new adventures with the characters and the crew, I’m looking forward to reading more!

A story I have not heard before
I thought the writer was ingenious in the way she worked in a history and the culture of an area that I didn't know and I appreciated getting a sense of that through the story telling including fantasy elements. The reader was good but there were cuts in the recording where her tone changed dramatically and it was just a little off putting. I mentioned it just because I think it's the engineering that could be better and it was unfortunate because I thought the reader was good otherwise.

Recommend to everyone! Although, as an AP World History high school teacher this book was even more fun.

Enthralling Adventure
Terrific narrator and stunning writing! I should also say I’m not a die hard fantasy genre lover, so even if there’s an interesting world or intriguing characters, I won’t cringe through clunky dialogue or repetitive prose to get through a story. The writer’s craftsmanship is extraordinary, not just in the specificity of the world she creates, but also in creating compelling and complicated characters with extremely distinct and clever dialogue (all expertly navigated by the narrator reading Amina). This story is also a master class in a show-don’t-tell approach to writing nuanced diverse characters with deeply rooted motivations and internal conflicts. Strongly recommend and now checking out her other work!

All I will say is this. I listened to this book because the Daevabad trilogy is one of my favorite series of all time. After I finished this book I thought, “I might like this book better”.

Swashbuckling and thought provoking all in one
This rollicking tale of unlikely allies who are pressed into rescuing a young scholar, engaged me fairly quickly. At the start it had the feel of a YA novel but the story quickly became more complex, thought provoking and fun. I liked the diversity of the characters and even the magic- the idea of a mystical bureaucracy of birds continues to make me smile. ! The narrator used a sarcastic tone to represent the main character which took some getting used to but I think it fits the character of Amina well. Listen for yourself!

A truly entertaining adventure novel
It starts really slowly, but it picks up pace over time and becomes a truly entertaining and funny adventure novel. Chakraborty is a master of world building and character dynamics and has a great sense of humor.
The performance was excellent, really bringing this beautifully crafted story to life.
