Thick as Thieves by Megan Whalen Turner
5.0
I'm not going to actually review this book in earnest, because what kind of fool would be that upfront about a Queen's Thief book?
I will, however, award Thick as Thieves one very ardent hell yeah.
It's one of those First Person Life-Changing Compulsory Field Trip To Attolia books, and a good and glorious outsider POV. I only wish the last half of the book had been twice the size that it was. I would go on, but I would have to redact almost everything else I want to say.
Instead, I will leave you with this one quote, which tells you nothing that you don't already know.
8/18/2017 Edit: Who is this "young Erondites" who Kamet convinces Gen to apprentice to Relius? He's corresponding with him on map on the back flap. The letter is addressed to "P." WHO IS P. Did Dite get married and have a son and send him to serve Gen? Are there other members of the Erondites family? INQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW.

"What a piece of work he was. I don't know why I like him as much as I do."
