A breathtaking tale of adventure, survival and loyalty. When Jeniche, a sometimes successful thief, finds her prison cell collapsing around her, she knows it is not going to be a good day. Certainly, the last thing she wanted once she had escaped into the war-torn city was to become involved with a group of monks and nuns on pilgrimage. Even less did she want to help them escape and guide them through the desert and into the mountains so they could get home. Of course, the last thing you want is often the first thing you get. In a world growing painfully from the ruins of a long-past catastrophe, it is not just the tyrannical ambitions of the Occassan nation that worries people; it is the all-too-real danger of the past rearing its vicious and mysterious head. What did happen all those centuries ago? What has it to do with a thief? And why are the Occassans so interested in Jeniche's skills?

Industry Reviews

'A first-class adventure which moves with a pace and panache rarely seen these days. If you like good future fantasy you'll love this. Reminiscent of M. J. Harrison or China Mieville at their fascinating best. I enjoyed Stealing into Winter a lot.'
Michael Moorcock

'Stealing into Winter is an evocative future fantasy. It follows the struggles of former thief Jeniche of Antar and her companions to maintain their humanity as, displaced by war, the odds seem stacked against them. Graeme K. Talboys has created engaging characters who live on in the reader's mind long after the last page has been turned.'
Susan Murray, author of The Waterborne Blade.

'As an author, [Talboys] has a strong, clear but not authoritarian sort of voice, and that carries over brilliantly into fiction. Stealing into Winter is a really interesting piece of future fantasy ... [I] am waiting impatiently to read the rest' Druid Life
