The thieves are three women all disowned by their families. A king finds himself thrust in a war on multiple fronts against a superior Queen that is fought for several decades and a common guard finds himself documenting their war to report back home.

The sample book is still a work in progress, but should give an idea of what the book entails. Just think of each section as its own story and not a chapter. More will be added in the coming days. It's the first book I've ever written and if you look below you'll see why its not very good.

This book has been released because its unfinished and I cannot continue. Depression got the best of me. I can't risk being found. I was nearly jumped by 20 people in high school and their harassment didn't end after school. Like I said, I know no one has my back and I don't feel safe. I can't charge for something that i haven't completed, either. This book for reference is about 40%-50% done.

I apologize, this probably will be the last book I write despite what I said below.I hope you enjoy what I wrote at least. I had a bunch more stuff here, but I don't want people finding me and its not everyones fault. I don't hate women or men just because I'm not comfortable talking to either, on the internet or in person. Any oddities in the story are because I was figuring it out as I went and was going to edit it at the end and make it all come together. Thats how I work. I don't plan out stories or anything, ever, because of stuff like this.
