These books are some of the most incredibly well crafted stories I’ve ever read. There were so many details I forgot or never noticed the first time! I thought my reread would take until this summer but I listened to all five books (about 45 hours!) in under a month! This was an excellent life choice! The audiobooks are incredible and I loved going back to this world. Of course I decided I had to do my reread via audio. They’re read by Steve West, my favorite audiobook narrator. Books one through five were released on audio when Thick as Thieves came out. When I heard we were getting Return of the Thief (the conclusion!) this summer I decided to re-read the series. This is one of the rare series that I actually keep up on! Each was eagerly anticipated and quickly devoured by me. Thick as Thieves ( my review) followed in 2017.
I was immediately hooked! I flew through The Thief, The Queen of Attolia, and The King of Attolia (the three that were out at the time) one right after the other.
This would have been some time around 2007 or 2008. However, it sounded so good! I decided to read it to see if I wanted to reorder it. I remember finding the book on the shelf and thinking that the cover looked quite dated. I didn’t discover it until I began working as a middle school librarian. The first book in the series, The Thief, was published in 1996 and was a Newbery Honor book. This is basically just an appreciation post for the incredible Queen’s Thief books by Megan Whalen Turner.
