Thieves and Kings is one of my absolute favorites, and I anxiously await the next installment as much as the next “Wheel of Time” or “A Song of Ice and Fire” book. M’Oak has done a masterful job at blending comedy, light fantasy, high fantasy, and true human drama into a beautiful story.

I know this is an older post, but anything that can be done to increase the fanbase and encourage more work (such as the “Apprentices” graphic novel) on this story is something I feel I have to do.

But it’s kind of hard to read it properly, those past few years. Mr. Oakley only manages to produce some 3 or 4 issues a year (I don’t complain – those that do come out are still great; plus he does some webstrips now and then) and with such an involved storyline I always manage to forget where he left off last time. I really should find some time to re-read the whole series some time soon… maybe once #48 comes out.
