The Thief and the Historian

A gifted Thief and a mysterious Historian.
A dangerous journey that will change their lives forever.

Aeda is a gifted Thief with twice the skill of the other Thieves, but not even she expects to get caught by her latest mark.

Gieral, from the legendary order of Historians, does not take favorably to having her rune essences stolen. She uses a runeword to bind Aeda to her, and together they set off for the Great Library where Aeda will be judged for her actions.

Suddenly, Aeda is thrown into a strange new world of malevolent spirits, perilous landscapes, and terrifying beasts.

Having spent her life confined to the coastal city of Biersport, stealing to survive, Aeda is uncertain if the mysterious Historian is her captor or her rescuer.

She finds herself questioning where she truly belongs, especially when she is drawn into investigating the unexplained disappearances of several Historians.

But even if Aeda somehow survives the dangerous journey and her judgement, can she ever hope to become more than a Thief?

The Thief and the Historian is an epic quest about belonging and the power of history for young adult fantasy readers who love going on spellbinding adventures.
