Story
Gender-fluid Sallot Leon is a thief, and a good one at that. But Sal wants nothing more than to escape the drudgery of life as a highway robber and to get closer to the nobles who destroyed home. So when auditions to become a member of The Left Hand - the Queen's personal assassins - are announced, Sal jumps at the chance to infiltrate the court and get revenge. But a childhood as a common criminal hardly prepared Sal for the audition: a fight to the death filled with clever circus acrobats, lethal apothecaries, and vicious ex-soldiers.

Story
Tamsyn Muir’s Gideon the Ninth unveils a solar system of swordplay, cut-throat politics, and lesbian necromancers. Her characters leap out of the audio, as skillfully animated as arcane revenants. The result is a heart-pounding epic science fantasy. Brought up by unfriendly, ossifying nuns, ancient retainers, and countless skeletons, Gideon is ready to abandon a life of servitude and an afterlife as a reanimated corpse.

Signing a contract with the PSU Foxes is the last thing a guy like Neil should do. The team is high profile, and he doesn't need sports crews broadcasting pictures of his face around the nation.

Neil Josten is out of time. He knew when he came to PSU he wouldn't survive the year, but with his death right around the corner he's got more reasons than ever to live. Befriending the Foxes was inadvisable. Kissing one is unthinkable. Neil should know better than to get involved with anyone this close to the end, but Andrew's never been the easiest person to walk away from. If they both say it doesn't mean anything, maybe Neil won't regret losing it, but the one person Neil can't lie to is himself.

Publisher's Summary
As Opal, Sal finally has the power, prestige, and, most importantly, the ability to hunt the lords who killed their family. But Sal has to figure out who the culprits are before putting them down - which means trying to ignore the fact that Elise is being kept a virtual prisoner and that the queen may have ulterior motives.
And the tales coming out of north are baffling. Talk of dark spirits, missing children, and magic abound. As Sal heads north toward their ruined homeland and the lords who destroyed everything, they learn secrets and truths that can't be ignored.

Gripping all the way through.
When I read Mask of Shadows I was hooked from the first. I was halfway through and realized, there was a second book, so as soon as I finished the first book I went ahead and grabbed the second one. I was not disappointed. The story picked up and I was pulled along for the ride and I loved every minute of it. Derin Edwards did a phenomenal job at bringing the characters and the book to life in way that I never could hae imagined. Great read, and I hae recommended this to all my friends who like a good fantasy with a twist of the romantic and adventurous thrown in for good measure. You won't regret this listen or this read. Enjoy!!

it's so wonderful to find a YA fantasy novel that doesn't fall into too many big cliches. Ruin of Stars was a wonderful sequel to Mask of Shadows. There were so many moments where I couldn't put it down.

confusing and incomplete
I dont know if I was somehow chosen to view this title early, but if I was I am severely confused by the experience. Listening to this book was like climbing into the head of a schizophrenic. our main character moves quickly between different emotional bouts and is described to do things that are expected to be impactful and long only to turn around and do something totally different a moment later. this ends up making the story wholly disjointed and jarring.
