Synopsis

As the city that produces the most selium - that precious gas that elevates airships and powers strange magic - Hond Steading is a jewel worth stealing. To shore up the city's defenses, Detan promises his aunt that he'll recover Nouli, the infamous engineer who built the century gates that protect the imperial capital of Valathea. But Nouli is imprisoned on the Remnant Isles, an impervious island prison run by the empire, and it's Detan's fault.

Detan doesn't dare approach Nouli himself, so his companions volunteer to get themselves locked up to make contact with Nouli and convince him to help. Now Detan has to break them all out of prison, and he's going to need the help of a half-mad doppel to do it.

It lived up to......more

Goodreads review by John on February 24, 2020

Break the Chains sees Detan, Tibs and the rest of the crew reunited for another adventure in which they must infiltrate a prison in order to break out a scientist. I thought the writing in this book to be much improved than Steal the Sky and along with the plot was much tighter. Enjoyable characters......more

Goodreads review by Ubiquitousbastard on June 08, 2017

I kind of forgot I was reading this last year. That's not a great endorsement for a book, the fact that I completely forgot it existed until I saw its sequel was coming out. I wasn't overly in love with the first book for a few reasons, and this book unfortunately suffered from similar problems. One......more
