Why read it?
1 author picked The Spirit Thief as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I have a soft spot for charming con men, and in Spirit Thief we meet one of the best. Not only is Eli Monpress a wizard, he's the greatest thief ever.

From Randee's list on fantasy that taught me how to write funny fiction.
