About the book – from Goodreads: Manuel “Manny” Boreaux, a troubled adolescent from Texas, is magically transported into the body of a goblin pickpocket in an alternate world inhabited by faerie creatures. Manny must quickly adapt to the danger all around him and try to find a way to get back home, a feat complicated by the pickpocket’s association with a notorious gang of thieves. But when Manny uncovers a plot to assassinate a young king, he must enlist the aid of an elf cavalier and a cat burglar to thwart a Sidhe witch’s scheme to ignite a civil war between humans and the Fae.

    I also love Death of the Necromancer. Martha creates fantasy worlds like no other. Her amazing talents are in full display in this novel. But you don’t have to take my word for it. 😉

    Thank you for the mention!

    I really enjoyed Martha Wells amazing fantasy worlds full of depth and imaginations, especially Death of the Necromancer, if this an example of her solo effort I am intrigued by her collaboration with Aaron de Orive. I would be enthralled by Blade Singer.. keeping fingers crossed that I am lucky to win a copy! Thanks for the review and the Giveaway.

    This one is definitely unique, kind of crazy in a good way 🙂 I don’t think I’ve ever read anything involving goblins…much less a goblin pickpocket.
