Dark divinations spell trouble for a lawless city in this shared-world fantasy anthology edited by the New York Times–bestselling author of Sanctuary. "Amusingly 'low' fantasy adventure, varied enough to appeal to those who have had their fill of Tolkien and want funnier, nastier stuff." — Kirkus Reviews Surviving is a full-time occupation for the citizens of Sanctuary. A city shaped by magic, evil, and political intrigue, she has weathered natural disasters and man-made calamities for ages. The great priest, Molin Torchholder preserved her history and secrets. All his knowledge has since passed along to Cauvin, a stonemason who is now a reluctant advisor to Sanctuary's current master, the Irrune chieftain Arizak. Beckoned to the palace, Cauvin hears a troubling prophecy. The shadows are coming, bringing with them sorcery, the likes of which the city hasn't seen in decades. Sanctuary has reached a turning point. With new dangers on the way and a dead man haunting his thoughts, Cauvin must find a way to ensure his home's continued survival . . . Welcome back to Sanctuary and prepare to meet an eccentric cast of characters like Halott the Necromancer, Latilla the daughter of the legendary artist Lalo the Limmer, Dysan the short and scrappy thief, and Jake the Rat! The shared-world anthology returns with stories by Raymond E. Feist, Dennis L. McKiernan, Mickey Zucker Reichert, Diana Paxson, Jody Lynn Nye, Lynn Abbey, and many more. "Shapechangers, wizards, cutpurses, and assassins share the spotlight in stories by Lynn Abbey, Raymond Feist, Andrew Offut, and others. Fans of the original 'Thieves' World' series should enjoy this volume, a sequel to Abbey's novel Sanctuary and a harbinger of other volumes to come. A good choice for most fantasy collections." — Library Journal

The twelfth entry in the shared-world fantasy series finds wrongs righted, debts paid, and the city swathed in a mysterious dust storm. With the completion of its new wall, Sanctuary seems peaceful and prosperous. The Beysib and Rankan invaders now favor diplomacy over military action. The wharves that once hosted only fishermen are now full of trade ships carrying merchandise to the city, and the streets, once full of warring factions, are calm. But soon warriors are preparing for battle as strong winds out of the desert bring swirling clouds of sand and dust, enveloping the city in chaos. It is the perfect time for thieves to strike . . . The original shared-world fantasy adventure series ends with this collection, featuring stories by some of fantasy's best authors like Robert Lynn Asprin, Andrew Offutt, John DeCles, Duane McGowen, Diana L. Paxson, C. J. Cherryh, Robin W. Bailey, and Lynn Abbey.

A priest rushes to pass along his memories of a dangerous city as death and a vengeful cult draw near in this fantasy novel by a New York Times bestseller. “Fans of Thieves’ World will relish this sprawling epic, rich with sword and sorcery archetypes, from one of its cocreators. . . . The gates to this famed city are reopened, assuring all that more adventures are just around the corner.” —Publishers Weekly Return once again to the den of thieves, swordsmen, wizards, priests, and gods known as Sanctuary . . . Sanctuary is a city shaped by ages of heroes and villains. In her lifetime, she has weathered catastrophes and welcomed prosperity. She has seen fire, storm, plague, invasion, madness, and gods at war. Yet her present-day citizens have no time for memories for they are too busy trying to survive. Only Lord Molin Torchholder, the ancient and wise architect of the city’s glory, knows the whole truth about Sanctuary. But when an attempt on his life leaves him fighting to keep death at bay, he must find an heir for all his knowledge of the city’s history. Aiding him in his struggle are Cauvin, a not-too-bright stonemason’s apprentice, and Bec, his spirited younger brother. Soon, Molin’s chronicles of the past unfold, but their time grows shorter. An evil long thought dead has returned to Sanctuary’s streets, eager to write more history . . . with blood. “The originator of the popular ‘Thieves’ World’ novels, the first shared-world fantasy environment, has returned to a world where vice and decadence coexist with heroism and self-sacrifice in a heady blend of atmosphere and adventure that should appeal to fans of the original series as well as newcomers. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal “Although this is primarily an adventure story, and a pretty good one at that, it is also a richer and more detailed novel . . . the book is both more ambitious and more rewarding than most similar fantasy adventures, as well as providing a nostalgic return to the Thieves’ World.” —Science Fiction Chronicle

In the second of two volumes of this magnificently illustrated cultural history—the tie-in to the PBS and BBC series The Story of the Jews—Simon Schama details the story of the Jewish people, spanning from their expulsion from Spain during the Inquisition across six hundred years to the present day. It is a story like no other: an epic of endurance against destruction, of creativity in the face of oppression, joy amidst grief, the affirmation of life against the steepest of odds. It spans the centuries and the continents—from the Iberian Peninsula and the collapse of “the golden age” to the shtetls of Russia to the dusty streets of infant Hollywood. Its voices ring loud and clear, from the philosophical musings of Spinoza to the poetry written on slips of paper in concentration camps. Within these pages, the Enlightenment unfolds, a great diaspora transforms a country, a Viennese psychiatrist forever changes the conception of the human mind. And a great story unfolds. Not—as often imagined—of a people apart, but of a Jewish culture immersed in and imprinted by the peoples among whom they have dwelled. Which, as Simon Schama so brilliantly demonstrates, makes the story of the Jews everyone’s story, too. The Story of the Jews Volume 2 features 24 pages of color photos, numerous maps, and printed endpapers.
