Publisher Description
A Middle Eastern-inspired fantasy adventure where muskets and magic collide.
Dhani Karim was once the Empire's most feared assassin.
Treacherously framed for a murder she didn't commit, she loses everything and is exiled to a remote desert city. There, she's forced to work with a dangerous spy hiding a deadly secret.
When she discovers a ruthless cult has plans to seize the city, she must race against time to stop a conspiracy that will consume thousands of innocent lives.
With enemies everywhere, she'll need all her assassin's skills. If she survives, someone is going to pay for starting this bloodshed.
And then there are those who betrayed her...
City of Whispers is the thrilling first book in the Imperial Assassin fantasy adventure series. If you like kickass heroines, high-octane action, and off-the-charts snark, then you'll love Katt Powers' gritty tale.

Stunning
From the stunning cover to the fantastic story within the pages, I was immediately swept into this fantasy and transported into another world. Equal parts fantasy and adventure, I really loved the journey that unfolded in every page. One of self discovery and struggle. Every emotion felt real and the action felt tangible. I really enjoyed this book and am thankful to see it is part of a series. Can’t wait to read more.
Good, not great.
This book was a little bit chaotic for my taste. It was an exciting and beautiful description of landscape, but I wish I would have gotten to know the characters more. Plot was alright but could have been worked with a lot more.
