About this listen
The first story ever told left a scar on the skin of the universe, with its characters doomed to an endless cycle of reincarnation and death. Trapped by his enemies, Daniel Faust - magician, mobster, and newly-minted knight of hell - has been cast in the role of the eternal Thief. Now, the story is dead-set on writing his final chapter, the one that ends with a knife in his back.
The curse can’t be broken without tracking down the original Thief. The truth is buried beneath the legacy of a long-dead stage magician and a cache of occult relics from the 1940s, but Daniel and his crew aren’t the only hunters on this trail: So is a deadly new contender who blends sorcery with science, armed with a link to Daniel’s past - and a cult he thought he had destroyed long ago.
The doomsday clock is ticking, and more than Daniel’s own life is at stake. To save the day, he’ll have to pull off the most daring heist of his criminal career, stealing a priceless treasure from a reality-bending madman, or die trying.

Marie Reinhart is an NYPD detective on the trail of a serial killer. When she sleeps, though, she dreams of other lives; she dreams of being a knight, in strange wars and strange worlds. On the other side of the city, Nessa Roth is a college professor trapped in a loveless marriage, an unwilling prop in a political dynasty. She's also a fledgling witch, weaving poppets and tiny spells behind closed doors. When Marie's case draws her into Nessa's path, sparks fly. What comes next is more than a furtive whirlwind affair; it's the first pebbles of an avalanche.

In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot.

I’m on the run from the law, who think I killed my aunt, and from whoever did kill her, because they want to finish the job. So, I move around a lot, working construction or whatever job I can find. It’s a lonely life. I don’t let anyone get close...people who get close to me end up dead. Why? I’m a wizard. The world’s only wizard, as far as I know.

It may seem like a good ghostbuster can charge what he likes and enjoy a hell of a lifestyle, but there's a risk: sooner or later he's going to take on a spirit that's too strong for him. When Castor accepts a seemingly simple ghost-hunting case at a museum in the shadowy heart of London, what should have been a perfectly straightforward exorcism is rapidly turning into the Who Can Kill Castor First Show, with demons and ghosts all keen to claim the big prize.

Story
It's been said that all great literature boils down to one of two stories—a man takes a journey, or a stranger comes to town. While mystery writers have been successfully using both approaches for generations, there's something undeniably alluring in the nature of a stranger: the uninvited guest, the unacquainted neighbor, the fish out of water. In the newest collection of stories by the Mystery Writers of America, each author weaves a fresh tale surrounding the eerie feeling that comes when a stranger enters our midst, featuring stories by prolific mystery writers.

Story
Joe Biden is fresh out of the Obama White House and feeling adrift when his favorite railroad conductor dies in a suspicious accident. To unravel the mystery, "Amtrak Joe" re-teams with the only man he's ever fully trusted - Obama. Together they'll plumb the darkest corners of Delaware, traveling from cheap motels to biker bars and beyond, as they uncover the sinister forces advancing America's opioid epidemic. Hope Never Dies is essentially the first published work of Obama/Biden fan fiction - and a cathartic listen for anyone distressed by the current state of affairs.

I'm speechless
Yet another book by Craig that leaves me absolutely speechless. I held off on finishing this one as I didn't know when the next volume would come out and now that it was confirmed...i finally did and wow. This book is fantastic, and so well written, Adam does such a great job of narrating as well to make it really come alive. Can't wait for the next book!

Did I skip a volume?
What the hell is Wisdom's Grave? I mean I know that Schaefer has written a trilogy of that name, but I skipped it figuring it would be sub par as Harmony Black series. Am I suppose to listen to that to get what happened?
It was a great story, but seriously why not you know... explain what happened in more substantial manner?

The Thief looks for a past thief!
The Locust Job
Daniel Faust ,Book 9
By: Craig Schaefer
Narrated by: Adam Verner
This book is filled with lots of twists especially in the end! Oh my! Daniel has to find and kill a thief from the past and get a stash of magical items. Of course there is others after the same stash. Plenty of side action that keeps this a non-stop action, unpredictable, and enjoyable book! I have been with it since book one and reading Harmony Black novels that weave into these. Terrific series!
Narration great!

Wow
Such a fun and entertaining world. It’s rare to find a series of books like these. I love the overarching theme of “THE PLAY” throughout all his books and even though I want them to win, I also don’t want it to end. With every book the stake’s get higher. And the ending was just WOW!! I’m listening to the next one now.
