Publisher's summary

Even a master thief can steal one thing too many.

From a childhood as an abandoned orphan to life as one of the city’s most skilled burglars, master thief Rafiq has long lived high off the wealth of Avanasia - its trade, its jewels, and its women. The vaults of Avanasia's merchants are as open to him as the legs of its most beautiful courtesans.

For in Avanasia, there is but one paramount truth: There are those who have and those who take.

And Rafiq is one of the latter.

But when he steals an ancient heirloom blade from a powerful merchant, he sets in motion a series of events that will shift the delicate balance of power in the city. And he’ll need to assemble a unique and talented harem of girls to survive.

Really good!

Wow i didn't think i was going to enjoy this book as much as i did, the world is an interesting one and i hope it gets expanded on future books, now the story is a little dark but it makes sense it is so as the book goes on, the only thing i didn't like was how the MC was kinda of a creep at the beginning with the elven girl but at the end she ended up being one of my favorites with how she begins to explore herself and what she wanted and when the opportunity arose she took it. also an amazing narration and can't wait to listen to the next one!

Good story

Its a good story a little predictable but not too bad. There are some adult themes but would listen to the next one.

Always give it a fair chance

One thing I have learned is to give a book a fair chance and to recognize when it's the reader's fault and not the book itself. I had just come off a 4 book binge when I first started this book and was not impressed by it. I had to listen to a different book first then come back to this one. What a difference! I really enjoyed this book. I was able to get past myself and really dig into it. The writing style was a little than others in the genre but good and the story grabbed me. I'm starting book 2 immediately and will give a more in depth review when I finish that one.

It's ok

The main character is in a thieves' guild. He's working his way up the ranks, and gets a couple women along the way - not as many as you might think.
Although elves are in this universe, I like the creative touch of developing some new races, and having new names for the races - although it does make it a little hard to keep track of what is meant by certain terms.
Mixed feelings about the idea that rich elven nobles would sell some of their daughters into sexual slavery.
Some of the content is pretty brutal - these are stories of heists and crime rings, so it isn't for the faint of heart.

Wish it were longer…(pun not intended)

I had no idea what to expect going into this audiobook. I was given a code to review this and I couldn’t stop listening! The male narrator easily pulled me in. Some of the story’s plots got a little confusing but I usually find what I kissed on the 2nd listen. I anxiously await the next book and would definitely buy it when it does. You won’t like this if you like newb MCs who like to flounder and make horrible decisions, though I will admit that the MC is a little callous to what he caused. IMO I think you may only regret how short it is.

Phenomenal

Really well written and evolving story, with potential for character development. The narrators and narration was excellent!

I am looking forward to book two and I would definitely recommend giving this book a listen.
