Scott Lynch: The Republic of Thieves

[judas]

Anyone else a fan of Scott Lynch? Well, the third book in the Gentlemen bds sequence, The Republic of Thieves, has finally been released today - and only three years late!

(To be fair to the author, he's had a rough time of things so I can hardly complain.)

Been looking forward to this for soooo long! Anyone with a taste for top-notch thieves' guild type fantasy should check them out. Starts with The Lies of Locke Lamora and follows with Red Seas under Red Skies.

Just finished Red Sea. My first Scott book, and I'm a bit disappointed. Was expecting better.

Should have started with The Lies of Locke Lamora

Anyhow, just finished Republic of Thieves. Loved it, thought it was very, very good - better than Red Seas, but still not quite up there with the first book.

Thanks for the tip on this, I picked the first 2 up after I saw you post about them here, just starting the second one now and I am really enjoying them!
