About this listen

Jimmy the Hand, boy thief of Krondor, lived in the shadows of the city. Though gifted beyond his peers, Jimmy is merely a pickpocket with potential - until he aids Prince Arutha in the rescue of Princess Anita from Duke Guy du Bas-Tyra and runs afoul of "Black Guy's" secret police. Facing a choice between disappearing on his own or in a weighted barrel at the bottom of Krondor's harbor, Jimmy chooses the former.

Forced to flee the only home he's ever known, Jimmy finds himself among the unsuspecting rural villagers of Land's End, where he hopes to prosper with his talents for con and thievery. But Land's End is home to many who tread the crooked path - and to a dark, dangerous presence even the local smugglers don't recognize. And suddenly Jimmy's youthful bravado and courage are leading him into the maw of chaos...and, quite possibly, to his doom.

Raymond E.Feist did it again

I love every book I've read by this author. This one is no exception! You get an even better feel for the city of Krondor and more appreciation of one the best characters to come out of the rift war sage!

I just love it

I love all of the (31?) books in this series! Jimmy is really one of my favorite characters! I was so happy when I found out this hit audible! I've already read it a couple times myself, but now I'm listening all the way through the series again on my long drives and it's just wonderful!

Excellent World Building

Great characters, great world building and an easy pace. This book and all the books I have read so far from Raymond E. Feist, are a pleasure to read and he is a master storyteller and character writer.

Read in CRONILOGICAL order.

I stumbled upon this series when I read the Empress of the Empire trilogy that is part of this 31 book series. I then compounded the problem by using the publication date order. These can be read out of order because this ingenious author has the ability to not slip any serious plot lines. However, I still found myself asking What happened to so and so, and how did this character become this Lord? I'm on track now and thoroughly enjoying this series! This story about Jimmy The Hand is good, and I am so happy I did not skip it. But note this is more like a character fill in, with profoundly moving moments. My husband thought I'd lost my mind when I would suddenly burst out laughing while listening. I have to say I think this is the best narrator of all the books. Each character has their own voice, and I felt like I was listening to a movie. Once I finish this long series, I will read everything I can find by this author!
