Brother Thief is a fast paced action novel about a street rat who finds himself to be more than just a thief.  Indeed, he has special abilities, and is proclaimed to be the subject of a prophecy.  However, this prophecy is never explained or discussed fully in the book. Furthermore, the author discusses auras, embodiments of a god of creation responsible for the protagonist's world and everything in it.  However, the author could have developed this idea of aura more fully by discussing all the auras that exist.  By the end of the book, the characters are pointed to the right direction, and on a mission to save the world.Brother Thief is a solid book, and a recommended read.
