About this listen

It's the season for treason …
The king of Yusan must die.

The five most dangerous liars in the land have been mysteriously summoned to work together for a single objective: to kill the god king Joon.

He has it coming. Under his merciless immortal hand, the nobles flourish, while the poor and innocent are imprisoned, ruined … or sold.

And now each of the five blades will come for him. Each has tasted bitterness—from the hired hit man seeking atonement, a lovely assassin who seeks freedom, or even the prince banished for his cruel crimes. None can resist the sweet, icy lure of vengeance.

They can agree on murder.
They can agree on treachery.

But for these five killers—each versed in deception, lies, and betrayal—it’s not enough to forge an alliance. To survive, they’ll have to find a way to trust each other … but only one can take the crown.

Let the best liar win.

This audiobook is narrated by Donald Chang, Greg Chun, Zion Jang, Sophie Oda, Jaine Ye, and Roger Yeh.

Interesting story but maybe not fully realised?

I quite liked the idea of the story, the world and the characters, but something about aspects of the story didn't work for me.
Many of the incidents that occured felt like random encounters and didn't seems to serve the overall narrative other than to provide room for characters to showcase abilities.
Also, while I liked all the voice actors, some of the recordings seemed to be slightly worse quality than others.
