About this listen
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.

I love dystopian worlds and magic so adding them together is a book made in heaven. I really wish the story had been told in first person rather than third.
Floating cities for the elite, a gritty underworld for the poor, fast-paced, action-packed listen really hard to press pause. The world-building was phenomenal, immersive, and so vividly described that it played as a movie behind my eyes.
Megan was a strong brave and intriguing character. I absolutely loved the journey she takes in this story. The magic system was unique and added so much depth. Full of betrayals and shocking twists
Right from the beginning I was completely intrigued by the plot and the characters. I enjoyed trying to piece things together, and watching it all unfold. At times I thought I had it figured out, but man was I wrong!
While there are two love interests romance is no where near the main focus of the story, so we didn’t get to explore the relationships too much! Which was a shame I would have loved more space given to this subplot
Thank you to pink flamingo productions for sending me the audiobook and for introducing me to a new author! Looking forward to book 2!
