About this listen

Mercedes Lackey's triumphant return to the bestselling world of Valdemar, Take a Thief reveals the untold story of Skif - a popular character from Lackey's first published novel, Arrows of the Queen.

Skif was an orphan who would have died from malnutrition and exposure if he had never met Deke the pickpocket.

By the time he was twelve, Skif was an accomplished cat burglar.

But it wasn't until he decided to steal a finely tacked-out white horse, which was, oddly enough, standing unattended in the street, that this young thief discovered that the tables could turn on him-and that he himself could be stolen!

I read this several times in my youth. I'm very glad to finally have it on audio!

Great stand alone Valdemar story, well read.

Once again a excellent book. I love hearing about the back story of some characters in herold series. Good reading by Paul Woodson but I would have liked more definition between the characters.

Love it.

This was always my most favoured books in the Valdemar-verse. It’s been a long time since I read this and it was lovely to come across it again, a great narrator makes it all the more enjoyable.

One of my favourite ML characters
