Summary:
Discover the globe of the Queen’s Thief
NY Times-bestselling author Megan Whalen Turner’s entrancing and award-winning Queen’s Thief novels bring to life the world of the epics and feature probably one of the most charismatic and incorrigible character types of fiction, Eugenides the thief. Megan Whalen Turner’s Queen’s Thief books are rich with politics machinations and intrigue, fights lost and received, harmful journeys, divine intervention, power, enthusiasm, revenge, and deception. Perfect for supporters about The King of Attolia of Leigh Bardugo, Marie Lu, Patrick Rothfuss, and George R. R. Martin.
Eugenides, no stranger to eager circumstances, has gotten himself into problems he can’t escape. Used to getting treated with a certain way of measuring wariness, if not really respect, he suffers the pranks, insults, and intrigue from the Attolian court with dwindling persistence. As usual, there is nothing as it appears when he rescues a hot-headed youthful soldier in the Palace Guard. The Queen’s Thief books have been praised by writers, critics, reviewers, and followers and also have been honored with glowing testimonials, “greatest of” citations, and many awards, like the Los Angeles Occasions Book Reward, a Newbery Honor, the Andre Norton Prize shortlist, and the Mythopoeic Illusion Award. Discover and rediscover the stand-alone companions, The Queen of Attolia, The King of Attolia, A Conspiracy of Kings, and Solid as Thieves, all epic books set in the world of the Queen’s Thief.

“The Queen’s Thief books awe and inspire me. They have the feel of a secret, discovered background of genuine but ignored lands. The plot-craft is usually peerless, the revelations stunning, and the heroes flawed, cunning, heartbreaking, extraordinary.
