Book Reviews of Take a Thief: A Novel of Valdemar

Very heart-warming story about a loveable kid. Loved reading the story and learning more about another hero of Valdemar.

Mercedes Lackey's triumphant return to the best-selling world of Valdemar, Takes a Thief reveals the untold story of Skif-a popular character from Lackey's first published novel, Arrows of the Queen. Skif is a homeless orphan who lives with a gang of juvenile pickpockets...until he is "Chosen" by one of Valdemar's magical horses and becomes a Herald serving the Queen.

Surprisingly good! I really enjoyed this tale of an honorable thief...

Loved it! I couldn't put it down. My husband also loved it. Mercedes Lackey is a great writer.

This is a fun book about a crucial charater in her later novels and trilogies. I loved learning how he came to be a herald and how he came to be trusted even though he is a thief.

Set in Valdemar during the reign of Queen Selenay, a thief becomes a Herald.
