Synopsis

As a thief, Malden is unparalleled in the Free City of Ness. But he has no desire to take up arms against the forces of horrific evil. Yet by saving the life of the knight Croy, Malden has bound himself to an ancient, noble brotherhood—and he now possesses a magical weapon forged at the dawn of time, one of only seven swords with incredible powers.

Malden fears accompanying Croy and the barbarian Mörget on their quest to dispatch a foul creature of nightmare…nor does he want to disturb the vengeful dead. But with an assassin on his heels, the young cutpurse has no choice but to follow. And there is the comely sorceress, Cythera, to consider—promised to Croy but in love with Malden—not to mention the fabulous treasure said to be waiting in the inescapable depths of the demon’s lair....

The second book of David Chandler’s Ancient Blades trilogy, A Thief in the Night tips good old-fashioned fantasy adventure on its head. Old friends turned enemies, old enemies turned friends, and an honorable thief, a disgraced knight and a lively woman with a deadly touch make fascinating company on a quest that keeps you turning the pages. Darkness, danger, daring and destiny have rarely been such fun!
