From Greta Kelly, the author of the Warrior Witch duology, comes┬аThe Queen of Days, an epic adventure that weaves together a flawed-but-lovable family of thieves, a battle between fallen gods, and stakes high enough to cause vertigoтАФperfect for fans of┬аThe Lies of Locke Lamora┬аand┬аSix of Crows.
For Balthazar and his family of thieves, stealing a statue during the annual celebration of the god Karanis was just a good bit of fun...or a way to stick it to the governor who murdered his parents. And yeah, the small fortune in reward doesnтАЩt hurtтАФeven if his boss also hired the mysterious Queen of Days to join the crew as тАЬthe weapon of last resort...тАЭ
Whatever that means.
But Bal doesnтАЩt know the ceremony isnтАЩt simply empty words and dusty tradition; itтАЩs true magic. The kind of magic that rips open a portal for the god himself. Only the idol that Karanis planned on using for a body now lies broken at the Queen of DaysтАЩ feet. And half of it is missing.
With the aid of a lovable brawler, a society lady turned bomb maker, a disgraced soldier, and a time-eating demon, Bal must hunt down the missing half of the statue if he has any hope of earning his money, keeping his crew alive...and perhaps even saving all of humanity. But as his journey sends him racing through the cityтАФand across realitiesтАФhe discovers that doing all this might just doom the city.
The city be damned. ItтАЩs time to kill a god.
