Long ago, one of the gods fashioned an artifact called the silver tiassa. To Devera the Wanderer, it's a pretty toy to play with. To Vlad Taltos, it's a handy prop for a con he's running. To the Empire, it's a tool to be used against their greatest enemies—the Jenoine. To the Jhereg, it's a trap to kill Vlad. The silver tiassa, however, had its own agenda. Steven Brust's Tiassa tells a story that threads its way through more than ten years of the remarkable life of Vlad Taltos—and, to the delight of longtime fans, brings him together with Khaavren, from The Phoenix Guards and its sequels. Khaavren may be Vlad's best friend—or his most terrible enemy. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Absolutely breezed through this book. Steven Brust giving us hits back to back. This book introduces some new characters and a really interesting macguffin - The Silver Tiassa.
I actually enjoyed the fact that this book not only was spread across various times of Vlad's history, but also he's barely there. I was interesting to explore the world through the eyes of others, and see how they go about solving things. I particularly enjoyed the second and final sections.
i also love the fact that Brust has gicen each character in tbe second section their own unique voice, making it quite distinct from the other books. even the final section is written in a very unique style.
i really loved Tiassa!!
