CW: Long thread/3
I'm speaking, of course, of #StevenBrust's #VladTaltos novels, which started with *#Jhereg*, published in 1983 - the year I turned 12, and devoured this book, rereading it four or five times in that year alone.
The titular character, Vlad Taltos, is a wisecracking assassin in a sword-and-sorcery world called Dragaera, where most of the inhabitants are extremely long-lived beings ("Dragaereans") akin to elves.

I just finished the first story, #Jhereg in The Book of Jhereg by #StevenBrust Someone mentioned it was on sale (as an ebook) so I nabbed it on Kobo a few days ago.
This is such a fun read! I can't believe I haven't read Brust before, as this is just the kind of fantasy I tend to enjoy (well, one kind of fantasy I tend to enjoy).
And I have a lot more books about #Vlad to read 😃
