City of Masks - Ashley Capes
- (An Epic Fantasy Novel)
A bitter mercenary. A naïve mask-carver. A city in peril.
Sofia is a failure. The sentient magical mask with the power to compel, the Greatmask, refuses to choose her as its successor. Without it, the mask-carver will never succeed her father or have the power to protect her city. When palace conspiracies place a tyrant on the throne and lead to her father's disappearance, her only choice is to hide.
Notch wants revenge. After escaping imprisonment for a crime he didn't commit, the grizzled old mercenary is more determined than ever to kill the king of Anaskar. It might have been impossible, until he stumbles across Sofia with her Greatmask and decides to protect her-his best shot at vengeance.
Taking Anaskar back from the tyrant is no simple task. With an uncooperative Greatmask and royal assassins hunting them down, staying alive is half the battle. Can they survive long enough to save their city, or will Sofia's shortcomings and Notch's need for retribution doom them all?
City of Masks is the first thrilling fantasy novel in the Bone Mask Cycle. If you love underdogs, perilous quests, and epic adventures, slip into City of Masks!
