A Thief's Gift

De: James Haddock

Narrado por: Daniel Wisniewski

Jamethon Trent, the second son of a low-ranking baron, once again finds himself in the city jail. This is nothing new for Jamethon; after being driven from home by an overbearing father and a bully older brother, he became a thief to survive. Thief he may be, but he only steals from thieves—which, it turns out, is a dangerous profession, as robbed thieves hold a grudge.

Jamethon’s life is never the same after a dying cell mate, a thief mage, gifts him a pair of enchanted gloves. The gloves are keys to what the mage calls the “side realm,” a dimension that exists alongside the real world. The gloves allow the wearer to reach into the side realm and steal whatever they can reach. However, the gloves turn out to be more of a curse than a gift, as fate takes particular delight in making Jamethon’s life . . . exciting at every turn.

Kings, generals, assassins, mages, spies, and thugs—he meets them all, and all seem to want to kill him. On the upside, the gloves does give him an advantage, but before he can use the advantage, he has to learn to use his ghost hands, to enter the side realm to become a ghost walker. Once he achieves that, he’ll be unstoppable.

Voice acting, storyline & characters!

Very similar to most of this author’s storylines with a few twists, but seems to be the same/similar universe with a different planet involved. D.W. the voice actor did a phenomenal performance with excellent acting, attitudes. I have been enjoying his voice and often try books based on that alone. I look forward to the next audible in the series!

another great book

also I'm glad that this one has a somewhat happy ending a lot of his books have a bittersweet ending but this one leaves on what I think is a good note I'm not going to say what it is yeah because spoilers but I really enjoyed it

Hopeful for a second book

Excellent read. Hopeful he writes a second book. Well worth taking the time to read it.

Title

Amazing as always. Hopefully you keep this series going. I don't know why there is a word minimum

Great book

Very enjoyable, easy listen, pretty good narrator.
There was no cliff hangers, good story that finished for once, lead up to a second book but you were very satisfied by the ending of the first, really liked that.
I will be looking for the next book, hopefully it's as satisfying as the l this one!!

Really good book cant wait for the next one

Top tier book. One of my favorites this year. Great listening to this one. Loved the narration. Smart mc.

Another amazing read !

James and Daniel an amazing combo ! Always interesting characters, great development draws you, and I can’t wait for the next book from one of my favorites authors definitely worth the credit.

No Climax

This story has a habit of talking up threats, acting like there will be difficulty regarding them, only for these "serious threats" to be resolved in a single strike. This book is more a collection of problems that the MC instantly solves more than anything else.

Fun factor and humor

Easy and fun with a dose of wit. The performance was excellent. Definitely recommend, super wuick “read”

performance and originality of the story.

Only real issue is that it could have been a longer more detailed story alot of opportunities lost not going into greater depth of the magical objects etc.
