Hardback. Condizione: Good. Boston, 1765: In D.B. Jackson's Thieftaker, revolution is brewing as the British Crown imposes increasingly onerous taxes on the colonies, and intrigue swirls around firebrands like Samuel Adams and the Sons of Liberty. But for Ethan Kaille, a thieftaker who makes his living by conjuring spells that help him solve crimes, politics is for others until he is asked to recover a necklace worn by the murdered daughter of a prominent family. Suddenly, he faces another conjurer of enormous power, someone unknown, who is part of a conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels of power in the turbulent colony.

Condizione: Very Good. Ethan Kaille isn't the likeliest hero. A former sailor with a troubled past, Ethan is a thieftaker, using conjuring skills to hunt down those who steal from the good citizens of Boston. And while chasing down miscreants in 1768 makes his life a perilous one, the simmering political tensions between loyalists like himself and rabble-rousing revolutionaries like Samuel Adams and others of his ilk are perhaps even more dangerous to his health. When one hundred sailors of King George I's Royal Navy are mysteriously killed on a ship in Boston Harbor, Ethan is thrust into dire peril. For he--and not Boston's premier thieftaker, Sephira Pryce--is asked to find the truth behind their deaths. City Sheriff Edmund Greenleaf suspects conjuring was used in the dastardly crime, and even Pryce knows that Ethan is better equipped to contend with matters of what most of Boston considers dark arts. But even Ethan is daunted by magic powerful enough to fell so many in a single stroke. When he starts to investigate, he realizes that the mass murderer will stop at nothing to evade capture. And making his task more difficult is the British fleet's occupation of the city after the colonials' violent protests after the seizure of John Hancock's ship. Kaille will need all his own magic, street smarts, and a bit of luck to keep this Boston massacre from giving the hotheads of Colonial Boston an excuse for inciting a riot--or worse. Thieves' Quarry is a stunning second novel in D. B. Jackson's Thieftaker Chronicles.…

Hardback. Condizione: Good. With Boston in the throes of a sweltering summer, and an outbreak of small pox plunging the city into panic, Ethan Kaille, thieftaker and conjurer, seeks to scratch out a living and keep safe those he loves. But British soldiers patrol the lanes, and Sephira Pryce, his beautiful, dangerous rival in thieftaking, dogs his every move. Now the city is beset by a series of grave desecrations; someone has disturbed the souls of Boston's dead for ill purpose. More, these are not simple robberies, but are the work of a powerful conjurer, a vengeful, twisted enemy from Ethan's past, who is mutilating corpses, gathering an army of wraiths, and directing his spells and scheming at Ethan himself.More in need of his conjuring talents than ever before, Ethan finds himself unable to cast, or fight, or defend himself. With every new death in a city at the mercy of a mortal disease, Ethan's foe grows more powerful and adds to his legion of ghosts. And if Ethan cannot find a way to defeat him, every man and woman in Boston will be at the villain's mercy.Brilliant characters in a brilliant book.-The Huffington PostJackson is an increasingly reliable tour guide to America's colonial past.-Publisher's Weekly on A Plunder of SoulsThe author hits it out of the park with the brilliant A Plunder of Souls, for both its premise and its execution. This terrific series should appeal to readers of urban fantasy, traditional fantasy, and those historical fiction fans who do not mind a bit of the speculative thrown in. 5 stars out of 5.-Bitten by Books.…
