Publisher's summary

Belly up to Thieves' World®'s favorite bar for tales told by such fantasy stars as Philip Jose Farmer, David Drake, Janet Morris, and others.

In the second shared-world anthology of the Thieves' World® series, we see "the gods themselves taking a hand in the fight for the hearts, minds and souls of the citizens of Sanctuary" (Fantasy-Faction).

Via contributions from Philip Jose Farmer, David Drake, Lynn Abbey, A. E. van Vogt, Janet Morris, Andrew J. Offutt, and Robert Lynn Asprin, you'll revisit the nefarious characters of Sanctuary, including One-Thumb, the proprietor of the Vulgar Unicorn; Regli, a nobleman; Illyra, the seer; Hanes, the thief; the crime lord, Jubal; and introducing Tempus Thales, the immortal mercenary.

Underrated classic

It's been something like 25 years since I read these books. Somehow I'd forgotten how good they are
If you're a big fan of fantasy fiction; do yourself a favor and read or listen to Thieves' World. These authors were the masters in their time. If grimdark, sword-and-sorcery, or D&D is your niche you'll find it here.
I do wish the narrator was better. At times I can't understand what he says but still well worth your credits.
