The Smoke Thief review

The Smoke Thief by Shana Abe was a BookMooch recommendation which sounded too ridiculous to pass up.  It's basically an 18th century adventure romance, but with shape-shifting dragons as protagonists.  Lot of swashing and buckling, and a fair amount of swooning and vowing of undying love to go around.  There are jewel heists, chasing of fugitives, intrigue, disguises, street urchin sidekicks, and a classic love story arc which begins with hatred and ends with undeniable passion.

Lots of fun.
