The Spirit Thief

Meet a master thief of remarkable charms and unusual powers in this outstanding fantasy debut that’s fast and fun (Booklist, starred review). Eli Monpress is a talented thief. In fact, he’s the greatest thief of the age. And he’s also a wizard. With the help of his partners—a swordsman with the most powerful magic sword in the world but no magical ability of his own, and a demonseed who can step through shadows and punch through walls—he’s about to execute his most daring and audacious plan yet. The first step is to increase the size of the bounty on his head, so he’ll need to steal some big things. But he’ll start small for now. He’ll just steal something that no one will miss—at least for a while. Like a king.
