Years ago, Vlad Taltos came to make his way as a human amidst the impossibly tall, fantastically long-lived natives of the Dragaeran Empire. He joined the Jhereg, the Dragaeran House (of which there are seventeen) that handles the Empire''s vices: gambling, rackets, organized crime. He became a professional assassin. He was good at it. But that was then, before Vlad and the Jhereg became mortal enemies. For years, Vlad has run from one end of the Empire to the other, avoiding the Jhereg assassins who pursue him. Now, finally, he''s back in the imperial capital where his family and friends are. He means to stay there this time. Whatever happens. And whatever it takes. Hawk is the latest in Steven Brust''s New York Times bestselling Vlad Taltos series. "Watch Steven Brust. He''s good. He moves fast. He surprises you. Watching him untangle the diverse threads of intrigue, honor, character and mayhem from amid the gears of a world as intricately constructed as a Swiss watch is a rare pleasure." —Roger Zelazny At the Publisher''s request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Long ago, one of the gods fashioned an artifact called the silver tiassa. To Devera the Wanderer, it was a pretty toy to play with. To Vlad Taltos, it was a handy prop for a con he was running. To the Empire, it was a tool to be used against their greatest enemies--the Jenoine. To the Jhereg, it was a trap to kill Vlad.The silver tiassa, however, had its own agenda.Tiassa will cover more than ten years in Vlad''s life--and, to the delight of longtime fans, will bring him together with Khaavren, from The Phoenix Guards and its sequels. Who may be Vlad''s new best friend--or his most terrible enemy.

Vlad Taltos est un Oriental, autant dire un rien du tout dans la cité d''Adrilankha dirigée par les Dragaeran, créatures quasi immortelles aux ancêtres reptiliens. Pourtant, il est parvenu à intégrer la Maison Jhereg, moins regardante sur ses origines humaines, et où ses talents d''assassin et sa pratique de la sorcellerie font merveille. Mais la mission qui vient de lui être confiée pourrait bien être la dernière : tuer un ex-grand conseiller de la Maison Jhereg réfugié chez un noble de la Maison du Dragon. Pris entre les feux de ces deux grandes Maisons, ennemis ancestraux prêts à déclencher une guerre de plus de cinq cents ans, Taltos risque de ne pas peser très lourd. Premier volume des Aventures de Vlad Taifas, l''oeuvre la plus connue de l''auteur - une dizaine de volumes écrits à ce jour, pouvant se lire indépendamment -, Jhereg est un livre haletant, plein d''humour, mêlant habilement les codes de la fantasy et du roman noir.
