Description
The Monstrous Citadel is the sequel to Mirah Bolender's City of Broken Magic--a fast-paced, adventure fantasy where a bomb squad defuses the magic weapons of a long forgotten war.
Amicae, City of Sweepers, survived the Falling Infestation which nearly destroyed it thanks to the efforts of Laura and Okane. While the ancient monsters have been beaten back for the moment, new and more monstrous dangers face them in the form of belligerent bureaucracy, dangerous gangs, grasping Sweepers bent on personal glory . . .
