The Thief is a book I have had on my list for a while as I have heard it recommended many times. I finally made time for it :) I did really enjoy it. It did take me a bit to get into it, but once I had the storyline/characters down I started to enjoy it. I particularly enjoyed the twist near the e...
I was told by many people that book 2 in the series is stronger than book 1. I'm not sure I agree, but I can see how it would hold a different appeal. The Queen of Attolia is a different type of book than The Thief--more "politics of the kingdoms" instead of a traveling adventure heist. The polit...
These seems like a collection of 'what if' scenarios from various fantasy Authors and they are very enjoyable for a casual read; a few of them would even qualify for college-level analysis, I believe.
This is a delightful fantasy, set in a land modeled closely, if not exactly, on the ancient Greek culture, rather than the typical European Middle Ages. No magic, but plenty of swords, and even some guns though they were barely mentioned. Gen is the Queen's Thief of the Queen of Eddis, but he spen...

The third book was better. I think one of the best things about this series is each book as a different narrator. The first three books mainly dealt with Gen. In this book he was barely in it and the scenes he was present he was aloof and didn't actually say much. From the reports that Sophos was ...
I've had this book on my "to read" list for awhile, but just never seemed to get around to it. It came up on sale for the kindle for $1.99 and I could no longer resist. It is fantastic. I was engrossed from the beginning even though I thought I knew how it would turn out. I did figure out a few ...
After marrying the Queen of Attolia in the last book Eugenides had become King, not something he wanted. This book he must come to terms with that. Within the series I like this book the best. I thought Costis, the narrator, was an interesting voice. I was half way through the book before it occur...
