This is not my favorite book in the Vlad Taltos series, but it does have a charm all its own. Here we meet Telnan, the newest (and only) recruit of Sethra Lavode's Army. Told through a meal at Valabars, each course a new chapter. Basically, this a book about how Vlad manages to get the left hand of Jhereg off his back. As always, the writing is on par, but theres a bit too much chance in this story, and maybe that part of what be Dzur is about. Also bloodthirsty-ness, Definitely not the worst of the series, it follows right after the previous book and firmly brings Vlad back into his hometown, and much to my relief. It's a very decent read, self-contained, and of course it had to do with his ex-wife. :) What return to his old haunt with intentions of resuming a semblance of his old life after making such an enjoyable hash of it would be right without making sure that his Ex was involved? The whole novel was enjoyable, but it wasn't huge except for the whole assassinating his goddess or taking down a whole room full of sorcerers, though. You know, little things. :) What? Assassinating his goddess? Well... she has it coming. ;) It's complicated. You know how relationship problems are. :) Nice return, but not precisely epic like that last one. *sigh* aucune critique | ajouter une critique

In which Vlad Taltos confronts the Left Hand of the Jhereg�and discovers the game has more players than he thoughtVlad Taltos, short-statured, short-lived human in an Empire of tall, long-lived Dragaerans, has always had to keep his wits about him. Long ago, he made a place for himself as a captain of the Jhereg, the noble house that runs the rackets in the great imperial city of Adrilankha. But love, revolution, betrayal, and revenge ensued, and for years now Vlad has been a man on the run, struggling to stay a step ahead of the Jhereg who would kill him without hesitation.Now Vlad's back in Adrilankha. The rackets he used to run are now under the control of the mysterious "Left Hand of the Jhereg" - a secretive cabal of women who report to no man. His ex-wife needs his help. His old enemies aren't sure whether they want to kill him, or talk to him and then kill him. A goddess may be playing tricks with his memory. And the Great Weapon he's carrying seems to have plans of its own�Picking up directly where Issola left off, Dzur gives us Vlad Taltos at his best - swashbuckling storytelling with a wry and gritty edge.
