Hitomi has watched for too long from the alleyways as her adopted homeland slowly suffocates in Archmage Blackflame's tightening hold. The only group in the island sultanate able to undermine him is an underground resistance known as the Shadow League, and they have little use for an orphan and street thief like Hitomi.
But when she learns the Shadow League's leader has been arrested, Hitomi knows they'll need every trick she has up her sleeve to get him back—whether they like it or not.
A 25k word prequel novella featuring everyone's favorite scrappy street thief as she earns her place in the Shadow League. Shadow Thief can be read before or after Sunbolt, as your heart desires. Buy now and set off on a fast-paced adventure featuring found family, traitors, and tea.
