The Thief (http://www.eunuch.org/Alpha/T/ea_12026the_thie.htm)

Zoroaster is one of the best - and most consistantly best - writers here at the Archive. It's been a while since his last outing but "The Thief" proves that he's still got all the talent and imagination that we've come to know and love.

A hot story with a great plot and just a touch of sci-fi/supernatural.

This is a must read!

I'm very happy to agree with Bboy!

I've read three times (for now!) last Zoroaster's tale and liked it more and more, even if English is not my mothern language. I like a lot this kind of narrations, in which there is no violence or snuff, but a delicate atmosphere and a growing relationship between young men.

Without any doubt he is one of the best writers here on EA... at least IMHO

Such a great imagination, and Zoroaster certainly has the writing talent to back it up. He has the fantasy/sci-fi genre down. I would imagine I'll be returning to this story many times in the future.

Wow. Thanks, guys, much appreciated. Now that I have my 'net access back from home hopefully I'll be posting more.

This was a great read, and I seldom comment because I get accussed of being biased. However, the phrase "Beam up my balls, Scotty," comes to mind!

Great read.

Hehe. And being such a big star trek fan myself (and yes, Kirk could have kicked Picard's ass, but then Picard would get him kicked out of starfleet and tossed (back) onto some klingon prison asteroid) such a phrase is highly amusing...

...although personally I find fanfics rather, um, distasteful. But it would be funny.

Thanks for the compliment, Paolo.
