"Never steal from a wizard!
Conn should have dropped dead the day he picked Nevery's pocket and stole the wizards locus magicalicus, a stone used to focus magic and work spells. But for some reason he did not. Astonished and intrigued, Nevery agrees to take Conn on as his apprentice, on the condition that the boy find a locus stone of his own within a month.
But with his wizard lesson and helping Nevery discover who - or what - is stealing the city of Wellmet's magic, time is running out for Conn to find his stone.

A cute story about a young thief who turns out to be an exceptional apprentice to a haggard wizard as they try to save the city and restore the levels of magic before not just the magic, but the entire city dies. Benet, the tender-hearted and loyal "brutal mercenary body-guard"is my favorite character.
Magic Thief is a really quick read, I started it last night and finished it in time to make dinner. Both interesting for adults but ok for younger readers.
