Contents

Thieves' World is a collection of stories set in the city of Sanctuary, a dying trading city on the southern tip of a peninsula, which has become a den of thieves.[1]

Reception

Greg Costikyan reviewed Thieves' World in Ares Magazine #1.[1] Costikyan commented that "since fantasy role-playing involves the group production of a multi-hero fantasy story, role-playing fans especially will find Thieves' World enjoyable. [...] The stories themselves range from mediocre to excellent, but all are worth reading."[1]

Thieves' World won the 1980 World Fantasy Award—Collection.[2]
