Rogers needs to disappear entirely. Stripped of his dream of leading The Thieves Guild and nursing the sting of betrayal, he rides into the anonymity of the outer fields, a man with nothing left to lose and a burning desire to reclaim what was stolen. His journey for solitude, however, is violently interrupted when he stumbles upon a wrecked tavern – a scene of carnage that wasn't a brawl, but something far more chilling.The local whispers paint a picture of a mysterious woman: a silent, efficient "cold killer" who metes out brutal justice with surgical precision, leaving only wreckage and fear in her wake. She's an enigma with blood on her blade, and for Rogers, whose mind is now sharpened by loss and a thirst for vengeance, she might just be the unexpected solution to his very big problem.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-thieves-guild--6141933/support.Some secrets are worth dying for.

Join me as I review The Thieves’ Guild by Jeff Crook live! Share your thoughts on this second novel in the Dragonlance Crossroads series, released by Wizards of the Coast on December 1, 2000. You can buy a copy here: https://amzn.to/49nFYto  https://youtube.com/live/qMIRuk1R5lE About The Thieves’ Guild Palanthas, Jewel of Ansalon, City of Seven Circles, heart of the old Solamnic empire. For three thousand years she has shone as a becaon to the world. Even now, ruled by the Knights of Neraka, she glitters in the night. Yet at the core of the gleaming city lies a dark center: the Thieves’ Guild. Though the Dark Knights ruthlessly crushed the guild beneath an iron heel, a stronger, darker guild has arisen. Now it’s intent on recovering its lost treasures and power. And nothing will stand in its way. Review Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga review episode. It is Palast, Newkolt the 19th. My name is Adam and today I am going to give you my review of The Thieves’ Guild by Jeff Crook. I would like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron. You can even pick up Dragonlance media or get $10 by signing up to StartPlaying.Games using my affiliate links. This is my perspective only, and if you have any thoughts or disagree with mine, I invite you to share them in YouTube chat. Review This is such a well written story thus far. We are presented with Palanthas under the rule of the Knights of Takhisis. They have routed the Thieves Guild, murdering them all, nearly, in one night. Years later a wealthy merchant has a shipment of a rare herb powder arriving that was paid for by Mistress Jenna of the Red Robes. This powder comes from the Dragon Isles and is very expensive. It is naturally a target for thieves. As Cael Oronstaff infiltrates the merchants home during his Spring Dawning eve party, he comes across another thief who already has the substance. He takes it from Alynthia Krath-Mal, a high ranking thief in the new thieves guild, and escapes. The next day the Lord High Justice, Sir Arach Jannon, a Thorn Knight, arrives to investigate as does Jenna. They discover the thief used magic and killed another thief. They believe it is an associate of a blacksmith that recently rebarred the merchant’s windows. The Spring Dawning festival proceeds with Cael visiting his dwarven friend Kharzog. They go to the festival together and hear Sir Elstone Kinsaid, the Lord Knight of Palanthas read a declaration from Sir Morham Targonne, the Lord of Knight. He declares the Knights of Takhisis are now the Knights of Neraka. No one seems to care, and the festival continues unabated. Cael is confronted by Alynthia and a band of thieves who chase him into the sewers and eventually capture him. He is brought before Mulciber, the Thief Guild's master and sentenced to death for stealing from them and selling it to someone else. As Cael is responsible for other thieves’ deaths, Alynthia requests to own him and train him to be  guild thief. THey eventually agrees on the provision he can steal the Potion of Shonlay for the guild. She agrees and they disperse. Sir Kinsaid commands Sir Jannon to find this Cael thief and deliver him so Mistress Jenna will leave him alone. Weeks later, Cael has been training with the Thieves Guild, learning how to work with their tactics. He is sent on a test in the sewers, to the heart of Palanthas, which is  an old dwarven home, Cold Forge or Kal Thax as they call it. Within they have to pass a series of tests to fully join the guild, but only a few have ever passed them. THey get split up as the Knights are searching for Cael in the tunnels, and he and one of the thieves sneak into a beast’s lair, who kills his partner and he kills it in return, discovering the secret door. He is denied entry by Alynthia who admonishes him for leaving the group he was sent in here with and ending with a dead partner.  Mistress Jenna meets Arach Jannon to tell him the Thieves Guild is set to raid her store, and while he adamantly denies there is a Thieves Guild, he agrees to ambush the intruders. As the thieves enter for the potion of Shonlay, their attempt is thwarted by Jenna’s magic and they narrowly escape, with Cael and Alynthia being chased around the city by the Lord high Justice and his men. They are consistently on their tail. They enter shoikan grove to hide, then end up sneaking out of the old town and splitting up. Alynthia is caught by the knights and Cael saves her by running them off. As she goes to flee, the alley erupts, attacking the knights. As Cael tries to escape he is caught and sentenced to death by slow torture. He is imprisoned in the dungeons. He is rescued a month later by the gnome Gimzig and Alynthea. As they are escaping in the sewers, Gimzig is attacked and pulled under water by a sewer beast and Alynthia takes the unconscious Cael to a safehouse. He is sick and unconscious for another month. When he wakes he learns the Thieves Guild labeled them both traitors and are looking for them, as are the Knights of Neraka. Alynthia is convinced if they find a treasure named the reliquary they could earn their way back into the Thieves Guild. Caels doesn’t care, but he swears to help her get it if she helps him get his staff which was taken by Sir Jannon. They break into the Great Library and have Berem show them to the volumes about recovered treasure from years past, in hopes the Reliquary will be annotated. It is not. With nothing to go off of, they turn to retrieving Cael's staff. They break into Jannon’s office and take the staff, inadvertently starting a fire. THey see Mulciber sneak into the keep and they follow him to see it’s actually Alynthia's husband, Captain Oros. It turns out he was behind the fall of the guild years ago and he’s about to make a deal with the Knights to have it fall again if he can keep some treasure. Alynthia refuses to believe it and a dragon spots them, and chases them out of town and into the bay. It leaves them for dead as they slink into a tavern and coincidentally find a childhood protector of Alynthia thought dead who confirms Oros' treasury. She demands to see him face to face and when they search his office they find a note about treasure being transferred to his ship. They go to the ship and find the reliquary and Oros and his minotaur Kolav attack them both. Cael defends the reliquary running into the city and is rescued by the gnome Gimzig! They defeat Kolov and Janon arrives, only to be killed by Kael. Meanwhile Alynthia is brought before the guild and sentenced to death by Mulciber, but then Mulciber counteracts the order, revealing there to have never been a mulciber, as Cael stands there. The guild turns against Oros and captures him. With the guild back in order, and their immediate enemies taken care of, Cael leaves to steal the founders stone and affix it to his dwarven friends gravestone. The knights ask Jenna to get it off the stone, but she refuses saying she isn’t able. But secretly she believes it belongs there. This was a good story, but the time shifts were erratic. Crook clearly realised he had to wrap it all up in a hurry and the third act is just one resolution after the other with contrived solutions and meetings, belying credulity. I did enjoy the story overall, and the suggestion that Cael is Tanis Half-Elven and a sea elf’s son, even having a dragon slaying weapon like his supposed fathers. But ultimately I just have this as fun head canon rather than reality. In any case, if you love Dragonlance, you should definitely read this novel, and if you really like thief stories, you will probably dig this one as well. So give it a read! Outro And that's it for my review of The Thieves’ Guild by Jeff Crook. When do you think of Cael being Tanis' son? Do you like magical artifacts being used in stories like this? And finally, should the Thieves Guild have a happy ending?

But Jasper's sudden interest in controlling what the merchants eat and drink suggests far more sinister plans than improving the menu.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-thieves-guild--6141933/support.Some secrets are worth dying for.
