Enter the world of fantasy writers: Althalus was a thief, a crook, and an occasional murderer; he was probably the best thief in the world.
And this fantasy story book is all about his adventures in a world of make believe. Or it should be
about his adventures, but a few things went wrong along the way. That might seem
normal for any story worth writing about. But a few things went wrong
with writing the book itself. Which makes it either a bad book, or an
interesting one. It depends on your point of view.
