Librarian-spy Irene's assistant has been kidnapped by the Fae – a fairy faction who will stop at nothing to cause utter chaos. The Masked City is the second entry in the Invisible Library series from Genevieve Cogman.
Irene is working undercover when disaster strikes. Her assistant, Kai, is snatched away by the dangerous Fae faction, unveiling his secret identity. Kai is a dragon prince – with this act of aggression, the Fae are determined to trigger a war that will hurl all dimensions into havoc.
With the stakes higher than ever before, Irene must navigate a treacherous path into the heart of enemy territory – a dark, alternate Venice under the grim control of the Fae. To prevent the Fae from triggering armageddon, she must find and rescue Kai. She will be forced to blackmail, fight and make an unlikely alliance – or face death . . .
This book also includes a extra, bonus section – with fascinating insights into the library's intricate spy network.
Continue this enthralling journey with The Burning Page, the third book in the series that takes the adventure to new, fiery heights.

Inte riktigt samma höga nivå som den första i serien men språket och uppläsaren gör det värt att lyssna på fortfarande. Denna var något mer ’forcerad’ än den första.

Första boken helt klart bättre. Hade kunnat korta ner boken 1-2 timmar då det var mycket babbel men inte så mycket som hände. I slutet ordnade de upp sig. Superbra uppläsare-en favorit. Kommer fortsätta läsa serien dock!

Mysig, lite av en metahistoria. En av mina favorit uppläsare. Inget anmärkningsvärt jämfört med det första i serien men långt ifrån en besvikelse.

När man har The Riyria Chronicles som måttstock till all annan fantasy är det inte lätt att hitta något som kommer upp i den nivån. Jag har försökt att gilla det här, men har nästan utvecklat allergi när det handlar om parallella universum.

Jag uppskattar verkligen hur författaren inte fastnar i traditionella ”fantasy-mönster” gällande karaktärer, arketyper eller könsroller. Brilliant!

Bra fantasy/Magicians/cyberpunk, om man ska kritisera något så kanske man kunde tryckt ihop de sju böckerna till fyra, lite överarbetad handling med andra ord.
