Synopsis

Sinister sorcery. Gallows humor. A queer romance so glorious it could be right out of fae legend itself. Master of One is a fantasy unlike any other.Rags the thief has never met a pocket he couldn’t pick, but when he’s captured by a sorcerer with world-ending plans, he realizes even he is in over his head. Forced to use his finely honed skills to nab pieces of an ancient fae relic, Rags is stunned to discover that those “relics” just happen to be people: A distractingly handsome Fae prince,A too-honorable Queensguard deserter,A scrappy daughter of a disgraced noble family,A deceptively sweet-natured prince, A bona fide member of the Resistance,And him. Rags. They may all be captives in the sorcerer’s terrible scheme, but that won’t stop them from fighting back. And, sure, six unexpected allies against one wicked enemy doesn’t make for generous odds, but lucky for him, Rag’s not generous—he’s smart. And he has a plan that just might get them out of this alive.With the heist and intrigue of Six of Crows and the dark fairy tale feel of The Cruel Prince, this young adult fantasy debut will have readers rooting for a pair of reluctant heroes as they take on a world-ending fae prophecy, a malicious royal plot, and, most dangerously of all, their feelings for each other.

Goodreads review by Nerily

Ok let's be honest. This is probably not 5 stars. I couldn't care less. I add a star as a "Sorry If I thought you were a trashy book, I will never do it again" But please. I need the sequel. God, I love when I am wrong in a good way about books.......more

Goodreads review by Mariah

WHY IS THIS STANDALONE GUHHHH Okay I'm going with 4 stars, probably rounding up a bit there. I am aware that I was in the exact perfect mood for this book, otherwise this would be a very different review and rating. This is a quiet story. Don't pick this up expecting big thrills or a large romance plot......more

I AM SPEECHLESS, THIS WAS TOO GOOD!!?!!?!......more
