Tailor on the Roof

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
(9.0/10)
An accountant-turned-assassin must determine if the books still balance when a bounty is placed on her own head in the third book of this fantasy series. Asterfal is a city of staggering contrasts: high glamour and abject destitution, corrupt politicians and an exploited working class, ostentatious greed and quiet suffering. SJ arrives set to be inaugurated into the city's council as the ambassador of Killic. But she quickly earns a reputation as a benevolent figure and enemy to debauchery and abuse, drawing attention from unsavoury characters and bad actors willing to do anything to maintain control of Asterfal's streets. This attention comes in the form of multiple assassination attempts on SJ's life by the city's criminal elite. And while she endeavours to avoid being the primary target on their hit list, her travelling companion Cristy discovers her uncle Lurtew has been abducted. Along with SJ's driver, Jay, they infiltrate the world of criminals and unscrupulous officials, tracking Lurtew to a brutal underground fighting ring where they must negotiate with treacherous foes for his freedom. As if all that weren't enough, chaos ensues when a secret plot is born from an alliance between fae and dark elves, and a host of manipulated financial records is uncovered. Now, SJ will need to harness tools from both of her lives--the accountant's eye for a false ledger and the assassin's skill with a blade--to survive. It seems the fate of the city depends on her balancing the deadliest books of all . . . The third volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series--with more than 500,000 views on Royal Road--now available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook!
