About this listen

A thief in the dying Earth.

In an age of wizards and walled cities, Raffalon is a journeyman member of the ancient and honorable guild of Purloiners and Purveyors—in other words, a thief. His skills allow him to scale walls, tickle locks, defeat magical wards. He lifts treasures and trinkets, and spends the proceeds on ale and sausages in taverns where a wise thief sits with his back to the wall. But somehow things often go the way they shouldn’t, and then Raffalon has to rely upon his wits and a well-calibrated sense of daring.

Here are nine tales that take our enterprising thief into the underworld and overworld, and pit him against prideful thaumaturges, grasping magnates, crooked guild masters, ghosts, spies, ogres, and a talented amateur assassin. Includes “Inn of the Seven Blessings”, from the best-selling anthology, Rogues, and “Sternutative Sortilege”, written specially for this collection.

Fantasy on a smaller scale, following the trials and adventures of a thief called Raffalon. Some are almost fairy tale like.

Great narration that really suits the author.
