Jerrel Landish, a trickster whose main aim is to become known as the greatest thief in the 8 Wizardoms, faces a major problem: he is an ungifted human in a land ruled by powerful wizards. In this trilogy of books, an offshoot of the Wizardom series, he faces a series of increasingly dangerous situations which he must resolve by subterfuge and ingenious trickery to thwart more powerful opponents. A thoroughly entertaining series of books.

Move on
Super disappointed. Usually series get better as you read them and the characters flesh out. This is not the case here. The main characters abilities seem to lessen as the books progress. Had a lot of wasted potential.

My very favourite thief is back in another marvelous episode of his unique shenanigans! And all three books in a bingeable box set! I can't get enough of Jerrell, he surprises me constantly, keeps me on my toes and I hear this voice in my head whispering for me to join him on his adventures. Who am I to discard such sound advice!
Oh boy is Jerrell something else! He's cocky, he's impulsive, he's ingenious in his ability to turn anything round to his advantage, using only his sharp wit and scheming brain. He's arrogant and so confident in his skills and let me tell you, he REALLY is skilled in his, shall we call it craft? But at the same time he's so charming, when he turns on the charm, few can resist him. It makes for exceptional reading! There's NEVER a dull moment with Jerrell! He like to stir things up! Especially when his sense of right and just is attacked. Bullies are his pet hate, his methods very unorthodox but you can be guaranteed there's fun to be had amongst his many dealings and he certainly has lots of those! Most books have one major event or adventure that unfolds throughout the book, not so with Jerrell, the author takes him from one escapade to the next, each one highlighting Jerrel's prowess and skills, each one so fitting to the plot, each one carrying me with it's brilliant pace never knowing what was going to befall Jerrell next! Wonderful! His narrow escapes are audacious, although I do think Jerrell is extremely talented at getting himself into the most difficult of circumstances! His ingenuity saves the day as well as him! I love his antics, just love them.
His quick tongue, his clever sharp wit, his charm and his fast reactions stand him in good stead, well, most of the time. Other times these exact abilities have landed him a beating or two or three.... not to mention some extremely perilous situations! But Jerrell being Jerrell either charms his way out or uses trickery. I should mention that one of his greatest assets is his charm, when he turns it on, not only are the ladies eating out of his hand but any he sets his sights on. His love of making a quick buck is hardly ever quick or for that matter, easy but boy is the adventure he takes me on entertaining! Nothing gets him down, he somehow manages to wiggle out of the most dire situations using all the assets and skills he can come up with, combined with his unbound daring, are some of the reasons Jerrell is is such a LIKEABLE character!
I really enjoy the accuracy of the fight scenes, very vivid and credible. And let's face it, Jerrell can't resist women, whether to save them or love them, you know what I mean... He's always looking to score a quick buck, always opportunistic, always scheming and always lands himself in hotter water. There's nothing Jerrell loves more than to solve a mystery. He truly is outlandish!
Jeff really excels at presenting all the components, from wonderful pacing, outstanding world building and exceptional storytelling in a manner that one falls in love with the characters and make it impossible to put down this highly entertaining, humourous and immersive read until the book is finished. Captivating to such an extent that the further I read, the more I'm under Jerrell's spell! Only problem now that I'm done, is you, like me, will be wanting more! All I know is that I have an absolute blast with his shenanigans! All I know is that Jeff Koharek has brought to life one of the most incredible characters I can't get enough of!
