Hulick is a good idea, yes. Two of my favorite stories about thieves are also slash, so I recommend them with the warning that they are, although it's not near pornographic. Those would be Lynn Flewelling's Nightrunner series and Tanya Huff's The Fire's Stone.
What makes Flewelling's books slash? Just because there's homosexuality in them? As far as I'm aware, the definition of slash is fan-fiction using fictional characters from some works and making them romantically/sexually involved (e.g. "Harry/Hermione", hence the name) - the homosexuality isn't even a defining criterium, at least it wasn't originally.
I like thieves. Any recommendations?

Did you read Lynch's Red Seas too?

Red Seas is the one pirate-y book I'd allow! Good point about the rogue mindset actually. *NM*

Mistborn stars an ex-thief, and the first book is centered around the "grand heist" premise.

That does sound good. I started the first but misplaced it, I shall hunt it down! *NM*

I didn't get on very well with the first Erikson. It gets better? *NM*

Yes, but there are few books that star thieves as prominently as GotM. *NM*

The first one was written as a screenplay many years before the rest. It's noticably worse. *NM*

You have a strange definition of slash.
