    About this ebook

    “Den of Thieves rollicks….This is a book I would be happy to have written.”
     —Dave Duncan

    Remember this name: David Chandler.  With Den of Thieves, the first book in his astounding fantasy series, The Ancient Blades Trilogy, Chandler immediately establishes himself as a major player in the world of action-rich epic fantasy—right up there alongside George R. R. Martin, R. A. Salvatore, and Raymond E. Feist. An enthralling and wonderfully gritty tale of cutpurses, knights and demons, witches, betrayals, and darkest intrigue—in the popular vein of the bestselling works of Brent Weeks, Joe Abercrombie, and Scott Lynch—Den of Thieves introducers readers to Malden, an amiable young criminal whose one grave mistake bonds him to the lord of the underworld and sets him on an impossible quest that will most likely lead the hapless thief to his doom.

      I needed something different after all the books with characters who suddenly find themselves all powerful and set out to save the world. This book is about Malden, a young thief without magic, who uses his wits to take on demons, warriors and the most powerful sorcerer in the city. He is not looking to save the world, only to save himself and somehow have a better future. He's not handsome or particularly strong, no one guides him, threats come from every side,yet with agility, brains and a little ghostly help, he overcomes tremendous odds.The characters are well developed, the action constant and interesting and overall it was an enjoyable read.
