Shatter Cage is a shapeshifter by birth, thief by choice. He loves the thrill of the game, the excitement when he achieves his goal. After a heist where he steals from an archangel, he gets noticed by a Hero cult and they make him an offer to work for them, he just has to make one little grab and bring the artifact back to Kleio (his recruiter). The best part? The cult belongs to Silverclaw who just so happens to be Cage’s Hero! The worst part? He’s not the only one after the artifact. There are multiple thieves who are trying to steal the same artifact as Cage and one of them coincidentally is his ex-girlfriend Brigid, who isn’t opposed to poisoning or kidnapping Cage to keep him out of her way. It’s a race to the finish. Will Cage be able to steal the artifact and get the job? This book was so good. It takes place 50 years after the other books in the Descentverse so if you haven’t read any of the other books don’t worry. You can start here and won’t feel lost. Cage was a hilariously witty character and I just loved the banter between Cage and Brigid. I loved Cage’s outlook on everything and the way he describes himself. There were parts where I literally laughed out loud. And Vex was perfect! I loved his supportiveness and charisma! Everybody needs somebody like him in their lives for sure! I can’t wait to see what happens next!
