About this listen

Desperate thief Myth needs one big score to get himself out of a serious hole. Why not steal from his royal father, who refuses to acknowledge him? Unfortunately, the ornate amulet he steals is bad news. Now everybody is out for Myth's blood.

Callan should be just one of the many people after Myth--but Callan isn't a person at all. He's a shade, a creature of shadow and magic. Callan is dark, and dangerous, and even worse news than the amulet itself. His dark, shadowy tendrils reach inside Myth and sate a hunger Myth never knew he had.

Myth finds himself falling deeper and deeper into Callan's grasp. He'll lose sight of his goals—he'll lose sight of himself—if he gives in.

But would that be so bad?

The Shade and His Thief can be listened to as a standalone, but contains spoilers for The Phoenix and His Prince. Please look inside for content warnings.

Brilliant book!

This is the third book in the series but it can be read as a standalone, all the important things you need to know from the first books are explained. In this book we follow Myth, a thief and Callan, a shade.
I loved Myth, he was a great protagonist and very relatable, I felt for him and I connected with him right away. Callan was a very unique character, I found him intriguing and I wanted to know more about him since book 2. I liked learning about his past and how he became a shade.
The chemistry between Callan and Myth was incredible and their dynamic was chef's kiss.
The pacing of the book was great and I really enjoyed the action scenes and the twists. I was hooked and found the ending very satisfying.
The world building was also really well done and I loved learning more about the magic system.
I listened the book and at the same time read the paperback and it's my favorite way to read. I had an absolutely amazing time, the narrator brought the story to life and I enjoyed every minute. It was really incredible.
