The Mage Thief: Book One: The Five Realms of Magic (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798996977109)

One bad decision after another landed Raela in a jail cell. Her next decision could set her free, but is taking Baron Albrecht's offer a good decision or another bad one?

Getting released from jail and the offer of a thousand guilens sounded good, but the baron wanted Raela to use her magic to steal the Gem of Orbay from King Roderek, a task that-if she were caught-would likely see her head removed by an executioner's blade. Still, for a poor girl with no future and a murky past, sometimes you have to take a chance.

What did Raela care if the baron would use the gem to start a civil war and, with the gem's power, make himself ruler of Wyttalia? Raela didn't owe King Roderek her loyalty. And a thousand guilens could make Raela a rich young woman.

Brian Todd's debut fantasy novel The Mage Thief is the first novel in The Five Realms of Magic series.
