Eli Monpress is talented. He's charming. And he's a thief.
But not just any thief. He's the greatest thief of the age- and he's also a wizard. And with the help of his partners- a swordsman with the most powerful magic sword in the world but no magical ability of his own, and a demonseed who can step through shadows and punch through walls- he's going to put his plan into effect.
The first step is to increase the size of the bounty on his head, so he'll need to steal some big things. But he'll start small for now. He'll just steal something that no one will miss- at least for a while.

Even though the beginning of The Spirit Thief had me wondering whether or not I???d enjoy it, I found I had rather enjoyed it once I reached the end. It???s a fun story set in a fascinating world in which everything has a spirit, and wizardry is not spell-casting but the ability to hear these spirits. While some of the characters are rather shallowly depicted in this first installment, the charismatic Eli and dutiful Miranda are both engaging, likable characters. I???m looking forward to finding out what happens in The Spirit Rebellion.

Well that escalated quickly. In the last third of the book all the characters start unleashing a level of power that was never hinted at them having, it comes out of nowhere. To be fair, it's sort of, kinda, barely hinted, but not really.
Other than that, I liked it.
