Full Description
From the author of The Disasters, this genre-bending YA fantasy heist story is perfect for fans of Marie Lu and Amie Kaufman.
In Kyrkarta, magic—known as maz—was once a freely available natural resource. Then an earthquake released a magical plague, killing thousands and opening the door for a greedy corporation to make maz a commodity that's tightly controlled—and, of course, outrageously expensive.
Which is why Diz and her three best friends run a highly lucrative, highly illegal maz siphoning gig on the side. Their next job is supposed to be their last heist ever.
But when their plan turns up a powerful new strain of maz that (literally) blows up in their faces, they're driven to unravel a conspiracy at the very center of the spellplague—and possibly save the world.
No pressure.
One Last Job: Diz and her crew are supposed to be out of the maz-siphoning game for good. But when their final score uncovers a dangerous new strain of magic, their retirement plan turns into a conspiracy that could get them all killed.
Cyberpunk Magic: In the rain-slicked city of Kyrkarta, magic is a commodity controlled by a corporation, and skilled hackers like Diz use high-tech gear to steal it right from the system.
Corporate Greed: Maz Management Corporation controls all magic, selling it at outrageous prices. But their power is built on a deadly secret about the spellplague, and Diz's crew just might be the ones to expose it.
Slow Burn Romance: Amid the high-stakes heists and life-or-death chases, a quiet, complicated love story unfolds between a snarky hacker and the crew's powerful spellweaver.
