Executive Summary: Another fun Riyria short story.Audio book: Tim Gerarld Reynolds has spoiled me. I've owned the book this story was originally released in for a few months and didn't read it, but once an audio version was made available, I jumped all over it.There is no other way for me to experience Riyria at this point than when narrated by Mr. Reynolds. He really brings the characters to life for me.Full ReviewFor someone whose claimed they can't write short fiction, Mr. Sullivan once again does a good job in my opinion. I had largely backed [b:BLACKGUARDS: Tales of Assassins, Mercenaries, and Rogues 23156342 BLACKGUARDS Tales of Assassins, Mercenaries, and Rogues J.M. Martin https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1409823447s/23156342.jpg 42703565] because I knew a Riyria story would be in it.I think I enjoyed this one more than [b:The Jester 20611669 The Jester (The Riyria Chronicles #2.5) Michael J. Sullivan https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1420893543s/20611669.jpg 39890176], but it's hard to choose. The story is a lot of fun. I could listen to Royce and Hadrian banter for hours. Or 90 minutes as the case may be.A bit of a strange job for a pair of thieves leads to a rather amusing story. While it won't be as legendary as some of their other capers, it's still a good story to share over a pint of ale at Rose and Thorn. That is if they ever talked to anyone about their past jobs.If you haven't yet given Riyria a shot, you haven't been paying much attention to my reviews. Much like the Jester this is an excellent way to sample both the Riyria stories and the excellent audio narration to whet your appetite for what is a really excellent series.
