Blurb: 
From the Bestselling Fantasy Adventure Series, Thieves" World (tm) Created by Robert Lynn Asprin & Lynn Abbey Return To The City That Would Not Die! Return To Thieves" World! Return To Sanctuary! Thieves" World was the bestselling and first of the shared world phenomenon, selling well over a million copies of anthologies detailing the exploits and intrigues of the high-born and low-born denizens of Sanctuary, a city that has seen many masters. The Age of Ranke and the reign of Kadakithis, the occupation of the Beysib, the war of the gods and indeed the erstwhile Renaissance are now all in the past. Memories of heroes and villains, glory and savagery have all been relegated to the shadows of yesteryear as present-day residents once again apply themselves to the task at hand: survival. Only Molin Torchholder, architect of Sanctuary"s glory and master of her secrets. knows the whole truth, but he is dying . . . He must hold on until he can pass along the city"s hidden history of empires come and gone and blood shed for reason and naught. Aiding him are a lowly laborer named Cauvin, himself a survivor of one of the city"s darkest moments, and a young boy named Bec. So many secrets and so little time. And as Molin"s chronicles of the past unfold, even darker forces return, an evil that jeopardizes the very survival of a city that until now has always refused to die. Sanctuary - An Epic Novel of Thieves" World ushers in a whole new age of tales, a whole new age of Thieves" World. -------
