Book Review: The Thief (Queen’s Thief Book One) by Megan Whalen Turner

I picked up this book on the recommendation of two of my fans (the guilty parties know who they are.) I am now hooked on the series. Mickey7 explores hi-tech immortality, The Thief explores the God given kind in a high fantasy setting inspired by ancient Greece. A wonderful engaging protagonist, a richly drawn fantasy world, humor, and a gentle philosophical undercurrent, I was sucked in. It also delivered a satisfying ending with a twist. The first book has a real ending, but I want more. Fortunately, there are quite a few more books in the series.

Highly recommended.

This is a traditionally published novel (and series) and you may be able to find it at the library. It’s currently available at Scribd in eBook and Audiobook. Also, the used paperback version on Amazon is very affordable (and it has a pretty cover.)
