This is a great book. There are enchanting characters, and divine settings. It takes place in the wonderful world of Venice, where there are gleaming statues and grand buildings. There are many exciting twists and turns. The charcters face many challenges, that will make you want to keep reading. We are twelve years old. Read it!

Danielle Wallace

The book "The Thief Lord" is excellent. Not only it's exciting, it has humor too. What Cornelia Funke wrote about Venice is truly convincing. I recommend this book to everyone.

This book is one of the best I've ever read,and im only on page 78,The plot is great and I've been to Venice and it's just like it says in the book,It's a magical place.

Isabella

The Thief Lord is an excellent book.Any reader should read this wonderful book. It has lots of mysteries,some only mysteries to the charecters and some only mysteries to the reader. The best part is you don't want to stop reading. This book takes place in Venice , one of the only part of this country I haven't been to. You can't miss reading this book.

This book is excellent. It has everything a good book should have. The charecters are likeable and realistic. The plot is magical, interesting, and fun. The ending is mostly happy. I love how the author describes things. I am 11, and it was perfect for me. However, no matter what age you are I'm sure you'd love it. If you have not read The Thief Lord, I simply have three words of advice for you. Read it now!

This is the absolute best fantasy book since the beloved Harry Potter! There needs to be a movie based on this book!
You will not be disapointed in this charming tale of a band of young thieves who work hard to stay alive in a modern day Venice!
You will love this book!
