About this ebook
One night in the city of Hearne, a young thief named Jute breaks into a wizard's house and steals an old wooden box. It should've been a straightforward job. Climb down the chimney, creep through the house, find the thing and get out fast. Unbeknownst to the boy, however, the box contains the knife that killed the Wind. Overcome with curiosity, Jute opens the box. It was the worst thing he could've done. Soon, he's on the run from the wizard, his old masters in the Thieves Guild, and their client, who happens to be the Lord of Darkness himself. On his odyssey of escape, Jute is aided by an unlikely assortment of friends, including a guilt-ridden assassin, a reluctant wizard, and a hawk who just might be able to teach him how to fly. But the Darkness will do anything to find Jute, even if it means plunging the whole land into war.
The Hawk And His Boy is the first book of The Tormay Trilogy. The trilogy continues with The Shadow At The Gate, and concludes with The Wicked Day.

It was very well written, though I'm not particularly found of the style.
It jumps from character to character through out the book, and to be honest
got a little bored with it at one point. It just wasn't my cup of tea, but
I recommend giving it a try.

Interesting story although the story seems all over the place. Too many characters are introduced without solidifying the reader's image of each. There are also not much physical descriptions of each character and it's difficult for me get an image in my mind to associate with them.
