Synopsis:
Kellen, Reichis and Ferius are on their way to Gitabria, a city where amazing inventions are dreamed up and sold across the land of the Seven Sands.
But when the three of them stumble across a tiny mechanical bird, magically brought to life, they quickly realise all is not as it appears.
Meanwhile two strange Argosi appear, carrying secrets from Ferius' past, together with an unlikely Jan'Tep ally.
And as time ticks on, all the cards in Ferius' deck point to the emerging tides of war . . .

Review:
I honestly cannot express my love for this series enough. I was lucky enough to get my hands on this book early thanks to a wonderful friend and I am so glad I have read it. The characters are engaging and layered, the plot is complex but well written and gripping. I really loved the development of both characters and plot in this book, Kellen especially grew more in this book and my heart broke a little for him a couple of times. Reichis showed another side of himself which I loved and Ferius, who is one of my favourite ever characters, had more of her backstory revealed. The pace was great, and I found myself running the gauntlet of emotions from laughing out loud to sobbing like a baby. Seriously I cannot recommend this series enough!

I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars and would give it more if I could :)
