About this eBook

A fantastic new novella from the master of magic and adventure. Best selling author Raymond E. Feist returns to the city of Krondor and one of his most loved characters, Jimmy the Hand.

The Crawler: a name whispered in fear...

In the crime-ridden back alleys of Krondor a rival gang has sprung up to threaten the Upright Man’s Mockers. Does the Crawler control the rival gang? Where does his power come from? And does it threaten the peace of the Kingdom?

James, personal squire to Prince Arutha of Krondor, but in the underworld known as the thief and trickster Jimmy the Hand, must travel to Kesh in disguise. There, working with William, lieutenant of the prince’s household guard and son of the magician Pug, and Jazhara, niece to the Keshian lord Hazara-Khan, he must attempt to unmask the mysterious Crawler and rid Krondor of his influence.

I personally love the jimmy the hand stories and in fact much prefer them to the newer stories that feist is writing. However £9.99 is an obscene amount of money to pay for this size of book (especially an ebook). I think this is down to the greed of both the publishers and Google as I know the author doesn't set the price, however feist could have easily expanded the story to the same size of the prince of blood or kings buccaneer which I would have been willing to pay for. Overall story is quite good

I love the author's style. I could read his works all day. I paid $2.99AUD and I thought it was a fair price (just) for this sized book. Any more and I just would not have made the purchase. In this era of digital books the sellers should be looking at volume for profits not gouging the buyers. I will pay for quality, and I consider this author quality, but only to a point.

Brilliant as ever, but its really only a short story. still a gripping read and a must to fill in more of the story of Jimmy The Hands rise to being one of the most powerful men in the kingdom. I would have loved 200+ more pages of James, William and Jazhere' adventure. still if you love Raymond E Feist, the Kingdom and Jimmy The Hand as much as I do you'll enjoy this little side trip from the main narrative even if it will leave you wanting more!
