This story is meant to be read following Book One in The Sin Collector Series.

Thomas has taken vows. As an immortal, he is impervious to harm on the battlefield. As a Collector, he alone can take away the sins of the fallen and allow them to move peacefully into the next life.
But valor never comes without sacrifice.

Far away from combat is his home, and her name is Lucy. Lucy is a human and frail from the explosion that nearly took her life, but Thomas’s duty pulls him from her before she can recover. His letters are his only connection to her, and to her caretaker, Thomas’s best friend Emmilina.

Thomas has gone to War for his God and for honor but there is an even more personal mission that drives him.
He will find other Collectors, and tell them the secrets he has learned.

#5 Rated Contemporary Fantasy

#90 Rated Fiction
~Amazon, August 2012

Sarcasm and Lemons Indie Review
"Fortunato takes a little-known myth and makes it her own. With all the allure of vampires but none of the blood sucking."

A Life Among The Pages
"Some fast paced stories can easily be read and forgotten. With Thomas there is nothing lost along the way."

Trip The Eclipse Blog
"Though this was really a character driven story, it moved me."

J. Scott Sharp, Author
"Setting the story during a war was a stroke of brilliance on Fortunato's part."

I had enjoyed "The Sin Collector" so much I look forward to reading the sequel "The Sin Collector: Thomas".

Although I truly enjoyed this sequel, I was disappointed that it was so short because I was drawn into the story from the beginning. It is well-written, and has a great and different premise. I would recommend both these books, and hope the author is busy writing more of the same since, I believe, there's plenty of scope to expand on the original story.

I love Jessica Fortunato's style: A good addition to the series.

I really like what Jessica Fortunato did with Thomas. The story line was very interesting and I always like to know more about certain characters that appear in books, I really believe that it helps you enter the world created by the author in a more realistic manner. I think that what I loved most about the book was being able to understand what the protection ritual was all about. In The Sin Collector we only hear about it since Lily is unconscious throughout the whole process, but in this book we get to see what it's all about and what must be done. I'm very curious on what is to come, there are many things that were left unanswered in the first book and by reading Thomas I became even more interested and curious since, even though it isn't left clear, I feel Annabel's part is very important for the future of the series.
I have to admit there are certain things that could be improved upon. There were parts of the book that were slightly confusing to me because I wasn't sure about the timeline. The book explores the three different periods of his life, but they are really mixed and I sometimes found myself a bit lost at the beginning of a chapter until about the second paragraph or even a bit further. I think Jessica Fortunato could easily improve on that in the other books of the series just to keep things a bit more clear.
Still, despite that small critique I really enjoyed the story and the writing! I really like her style and I can't wait for more!

A truly enjoyable read!

When I read book #1 of the series earlier, I immediately fell in love with the story. It was very different from all the books I read so far in my life, the story of the Sin- Eaters was very fascinating to me. I love learning about myths and legends and this did grab my attention. Book #1 has so many interesting characters, Thomas is one of them. Thomas won the maximum number of votes when the author held an online poll for her readers to decide whose story they would love to read next - Thomas or Rebecca.

It was interesting to learn of Thomas' history, it brought out an entirely different side of him than what you see in book 1. From the jolly man to the man torn between his duty as a Collector and to the one he holds most precious. Another reason why it is highly recommended to read The Sin Collector before beginning with Thomas.

It was really fascinating to have read more of the rituals behind the protection symbol. What I also loved were the flashback scenes. And I really adored Cricket a lot. And Em, the ever so supportive friend any could ask for.

I really enjoyed reading it, and can I say I fell in love with Thomas even more after this. Can't wait for the next in the series !

Good story, however....

I didn't realize there was a first book and originally thought this book was awfully short and left a lot of questions. Now that I know there is a story before it, it makes sense that it would seem incomplete to me. I did enjoy the story well enough to want to read The Sin Collector and will follow up with a more detailed review.

I read Fortunato's first book, Sin Collector and was intrigued with the characters in the book. Thomas happened to be one of my favorites and so I was glad to see this book dedicated to his story. I read it with the same interest and pleasure as I read the Sin Collector. Must admit I am a fan of the characters in these books.

Unusual premise; provided much range for a not-your-typical-storyline read. Actually fairly "believable" for a paranormal story. Didn't care at all for the ending. Oh, well. Just added another chapter, mentally, to "fix things."

It was short and lightly developed, but I loved the concept. I will give the next book the benefit of the doubt.

WONDERFULLY CRAFTED STORY

Reviewed in Spain on August 3, 2012

Very interesting story about the early years of Thomas as a Sin Collector. Obviously, you need to read The Sin Collector first to fully understand this story. Otherwise, you would be quite at lost. This short story helps to understand better some events that happen in the original book, and it also sets the ground for future events, since there are open questions. I have read this story in just one hour (because I was interrupted several times), and I have loved it. Jessica Fortunato does a great job at creating atmosphere, and her vivid descriptions, which have the right length for the format chosen, make you get a very clear picture in your head of what is going on. Wonderfully crafted in a very clever way, the use of the flashback technique makes you be more engaged in the story. I cannot wait to read the second book in the series, and I definitely recommend both the book and this short story to everybody. I think they are unique because of the mixture of genres, but it is a mix that absolutely works, making the reader crave for more.
