The Masked City

Like The Invisible Library, The Masked City is absolutely delightful! The series follows the adventures of Irene, a spy for an organization existing outside of time and space known as the Library. Though this installment didn't build on the first as much as I had hoped or have as much Kai as I would have liked, it made up for this in other ways: a plot revolving around the power of stories, the introduction of Zayanna, and especially Irene herself. She's a wonderful heroine–competent, practical, quick-thinking, and all-around difficult to unnerve–and the highlight of the novel.
