" La ville d''Adrilankha, en Blanchecrête. La capitale et la plus vaste cité de l''Empire Dragaeran abrite de tout, mais en grande concentration. Les conflits entre les principales Maisons, et quelquefois au sein de l''une d''entre elles, deviennent plus compliqués et plus vicieux dans cette cité. Les Dragonobles se battent pour l''honneur, les nobles lorich pour la justice, les nobles Jhereg pour l''argent et les Dzumobles pour le plaisir. Mais les membres de la Maison Jhereg opèrent dans l''illégalité. L''Empire est à la fois indésirable et incapable de faire respecter les règles et les coutumes qui gouvernent cette Maison. Quelquefois, pourtant, ces lois implicites sont bafouées. C''est là que j''interviens. Je suis un assassin. "

Les aventures de Vlad Taltos
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.
