by Trudi Canavan
A highly enjoyable read, I read this, cover to cover, in a few days because I really wanted to know what Trudi Canavan had come with this time. I have already read and enjoyed her other trilogies so I knew what to expect in terms of quality of writing.This is a fantasy novel principally about two ch...
I think the thief stole the magic from this book! I've tried five or six times to read it and I just can't do it. There is something about the style of writing that I could not get in to. It's not polished for one and the writing felt forced and awkward. There are also two stories and two worlds goi...

Thief's Magic I randomly read about and thought it seemed interesting so I added it to my library requests. Then I saw the request a few weeks later and had no memory of it. I think I found where it was first listed and here's the description that intrigued me: The first book in a new series! It's...
An intricately woven tale of magic, adventure and unexplored ideas. While not YA, it's a win of a fantasy story, expertly told! I look forward to seeing where the story goes!!!
So Thief's Magic is basically the first real fantasy book I've read in at lest 10+ years. I thought that Fantasy wasn't for me, but I'm glad I gave the genre another try with this little book. The Thief's Magic follows two characters and it is told in two POV's through Tyen and Rielle. Because t...
