Review is for the series. I really liked this trilogy! The characters were a little hard to get comfortable with in the beginning, but I stayed with the books because I love the relationship between thieves Loch and Kail. Their banter really reminded me of Michael J Sullivan's Royce and Hadrian. The...
The Palace Job by Patrick Weekes (writer for Bioware on both the Dragon Age and Mass Effect franchises) is a somewhat shallow but action-packed novel set in a magical fantasy world.

It seems ridiculous now, but I sat on The Palace Job for weeks after being granted a copy of it via Netgalley.

I used to think that adding a unicorn to a story (especially if it's already fantasy) could never be a bad decision. Now however, I'm no longer so sure...
