Christopher Bunn

In the land of Tormay, a young thief named Jute robs the house of a wizard one night. Soon, he finds himself running for his life as he seeks to understand what he stole and why so many people suddenly want him dead. Ancient secrets and curses come alive around Jute as he journeys to freedom in the north, accompanied by a talking hawk, a guilt-ridden assassin, and a forgetful ghost. But, as they seek to save themselves, the little company realizes that much more is at stake than their own lives. A storm has come to Tormay, and, in the shadows of the night, the Dark walks. It will do anything to destroy the land. It cares nothing for the armies and might of men. Only one thing stands between the Dark and its wicked dreams: a thief named Jute.

A Noblebright Fantasy Anthology

Still Waters

Μια Ιστορία για Ρουμπίνια, Σκιές και Έρωτα Όταν οι μεταλλωρύχοι του Βασιλιά ανακαλύπτουν ένα περίεργο ρουμπίνι γεμάτο φωτιά, βαθιά κάτω από το βουνό, ο Βασιλιάς είναι κατενθουσιασμένος. Μόνο που υπάρχει ένα πρόβλημα. Το πετράδι ανήκει στις σκιές που ζουν στο ορυχείο. Ο Βασιλιάς, ωστόσο, θα κάνει τα πάντα για να πάρει στα άπληστα χέρια του το ρουμπίνι, ακόμη κι αν αυτό σημαίνει την καταστροφή του βασιλείου. Ο γιος του αρχιμεταλλωρύχου, ο Πίτερ Σνόου, αναγκάζεται να σώσει την κατάσταση. Το Πάγος και Φωτιά είναι ένα διήγημα περίπου 5.200 λέξεων, αποτελούμενο από μία ευέξαπτη πριγκίπισσα, μία υπερβολικά σοφή μαγείρισσα και κάμποσα βατράχια στην τάφρο.

Πάγος και Φωτιά

One night in the city of Hearne, a young thief named Jute breaks into a wizard's house and steals an old wooden box. It should've been a straightforward job. Climb down the chimney, creep through the house, find the thing and get out fast. Unbeknownst to the boy, however, the box contains the knife that killed the Wind. Overcome with curiosity, Jute opens the box. It was the worst thing he could've done. Soon, he's on the run from the wizard, his old masters in the Thieves Guild, and their client, who happens to be the Lord of Darkness himself. On his odyssey of escape, Jute is aided by an unlikely assortment of friends, including a guilt-ridden assassin, a reluctant wizard, and a hawk who just might be able to teach him how to fly. But the Darkness will do anything to find Jute, even if it means plunging the whole land into war. The Hawk And His Boy is the first book of The Tormay Trilogy. The trilogy continues with The Shadow At The Gate, and concludes with The Wicked Day.
