Empires rise and fall, but Sanctuary lives on.
Sanctuary, a lawless city governed by evil forces, powerful magic, and political intrigue where survival is an unexpected bonus.

A recent storm has left a ship filled with exotic cargo and arcane secrets wrecked off the shore of Sanctuary in this second of a new series of shared world anthologies. Thieves' World: Enemies of Fortune continues the story with tales of necromancers and assassins, urchins and knaves, and of course, thieves. This unexpected booty leads to boons and curses for the world-weary residents … as well as the usual power struggle among factions wishing to take deadly advantage at any new turn of events.

All new stories by Lynn Abbey, Stephen Brust, C.J.Cherryh, Jeff Grubb, Mickey Zucker Reichert, Dennis McKiernan, Andrew Offutt, Robin Wayne Bailey, Diana Paxson, Jody Lynn Nye, Selina Rosen, and Jane Fancher.

Praise for Thieves' World: Enemies of Fortune

On Thieves' World ™: Turning Points

"Thieves' World was a signal event in fantasy history ...(a) rich legacy of first rate story."--New York Times bestselling author Raymond E.Feist

"Amusingly 'low' fantasy adventure, varied enough to appeal to those who have had their fill of Tolkien and want funnier, nastier stuff." -- Kirkus Reviews
